    Diesel, Stras hasn't been in the bigs very long, etc-what do you want the dude to do about that? I took the Nationals RL very happily. Good luck to you though.

    He has only pitched versus relatively weak lineups so far. And he has largely dominated them all. Today he faces another weak lineup. Maybe there is value in fading him but I wouldn't risk it.

    The score is 0-0. To just to give you a heads up. Strasburg is 2-0 1.86 ERA. 32k in 19.1 innings pitched. Yea, I would say those numbers are way overrated.

    you are a fukkn idiot man, yeah he lost. you would lose too if no runs were scored to support your ass.

    there is so much hype around his first season that everyone who is pitching against him is going to bring their mfkn A game and not go down easily.

    you fukkn overreact and i love it when you celebrate early "Indians 2-0... game over"


    Really? Really? Final score Philly 7-6 win and you again look like a fukkn idiot

    yeah it has been interesting, maybe because they are being nationally televised every start so the opposing pitcher steps it up.

    Karsten and huff pitched well until they hit the wall and were run out, and floyd and now bannister pitched phenomenally against the nats. compound that with the nats dead bats right now and it recipe for close games (and unders )

    cant wait to see what he does against a division opponent against atlanta come monday

    again nationally televised, as will next weeks saturday game.

    The Nationals are now 2-2 in games in which Strasburg starts.

    All those games the Nationals were -200 and above if I recall correctly.

    Continue fading him and the Nationals when he is on the mound.

    this may be the closest thing to a solid post you have ever made, been fading him and will continue until the price starts to drop anyway....the kid is not overrated though (team is overpriced when he starts yes but overrated fuk no), hell he has been as good as advertised but like has been said the opposing pitchers really seem to bring it vs him and he isnt getting much support.....

    The kid is not overrated as far as what was expected of him--clearly he's delivering. Game's 1-1 if the ump gets the call at home right.

    that is very smart until they start hitting, and the under in his starts are solid right now as well.

    I don't know how you call him overrated when he only allowed 1 run. That was the hitter's fault here. This guy is really good no doubt.

    Strasburg is not overrated, Starting pitchers are usually overrated. You can't win if you can't score runs..

    This kid has a good stuff but he's unlucky. (because he's playing in Nationals, LoL! Let's see when he will be a Yankee?)

    Nice call on Royals btw Diesel!
