Strasburg is OVERRATED.

[soxwin]

pulling for ya Diesel. 2-2 now. Ur right on when you say Nats are overrated when Strassburg is pitching. SS isn't overrated but the Nats are.

[KingJIM]

I'm on same page as soxwin that Nats are overrated not Strasburg. Although it was sicking to hearing the announcers of the game today debate on whether he should be an AllStar this year.

Vegas made a mistake in making Strasburg a favorite today.

Unless he can hit a few solo homeruns, the Nationals are not winning today vs the Braves.

[CapNWatch]

I realize that the hype machine for Strasburg is unreal but the fact is he is already one of the top 10 best pitchers in MLB. Ask the lines makers themselves even if you are getting maybe the slightest edge is it smart to be betting against someone who could possibly be the best SP of this generation?

like to see strasburg go at least 7 innings tonite or more

9 starts and only went 7 innings twice

54.1 innings for 9 starts is 6 innings per start

[cala56]

The team is overrated, even whit strasburgh they play horrible

[THA_DIESEL]

Strasburg knew he would get smoked tonight against that powerful Braves lineup.

Nice call on his part to sit this one out. It will help his ERA and record.

Vegas made a mistake in making Strasburg a favorite today. Unless he can hit a few solo homeruns, the Nationals are not winning today vs the Braves.

Nationals are up 3-0 without him

Strasburg leads the Majors in strikeouts since his debut.
