    103 MPH College Pitcher!

    This guy throws gas, check it out!

    Stephen Strasburg might throw harder than any pitcher ever. The college kid will soon discover how much that's worth.

          The Nationals would be fools to pass him up. I believe his agent Boras though.

            The Nats will sign him and then trade him to some other team for a lesser player. Just ask VintageDeputy

              Actually, I'm going to be pitching for the Nats. Along with my cat, my 2 kids, my neighbor's dog and my dead grandmother. We couldn't do any worse than the starting 5 that the Nats have been putting on the mound so far.

                Any of the above listed potential pitchers who don't make the cut please direct them to my Cleveland Indians. Our pitching has been a littel "suspect" to start the season...

                  Tbone I can;t belive you said that!! I am shocked.
                  You have one of the best pitchers out there CARL PAVANO lol lol

                  I have to ask what were you guys thinking??? He has been one of, if not thee worse pitcher for 4 years. The Yankees were practically begging him to leave. The fans were begging him to leave.

                  Yet soon as he became a free agent the Indians scooped him right up.

                  I mean they didn't even let him linger on the market lol lol

                  Oye Vey!!

                    One name BORE_A$$. Have you heard the money they are already talking about? $50 mill upfront contract????

                    Also, there is the #1 pick curse for pitchers if you look at the entire history of the draft. There has never been a HOF pitcher picked at #1 overall.

                    Strasburg did alright in the Olympics last year when matched up against Minor League quality and some Major Leaguers.

                    Growing up in Maryland, I remember all too well the legend of Ben McDonald who was a can't miss power pitcher............

                    With all this said, I hope the Nationals take him!!!! :>) 20 smiles!!!!!

                      Andrew, Ben McDonald was quite the stud pitcher with LSU but not so much with the Orioles

                        Tim - Exactly my point!!! I am not saying the same will happen with Strasburg, but Big Ben was hyped the same.

                        Then you have Mark Prior who signed the largest Draftee signing bonus and where is he now?

                          Let's not forget Phil Hughes hyped up to be the biggest phenom in years. Well we can put that one to bed.

                          I forgot his name there was another Yankees prospect pitcher some yaars back who was hyped up to be the biggest thing ever to baseball, a AROD of pitchers if you will, he got into one bar fight ruined his arm and never heard from him again.

                            I think his name was Brien Taylor???

                            I don't think you can label Hughes a bust yet. He is still very young, I think he was just rushed into a Yankees lineup with all the preasure of the world on his shoulders. I do not think Ian Kennedy will make it though.

                              Stephen Strasburg Update---

                              Through yesterday's game (May 1) here are his season stats:
                              W-10 L-0 , 1.38 ERA, 78 1/3 Innings, 48 hits, 13 Runs (12 earned), AND 15 Walks , 147 Strikeouts.

                              No real mystery why he is packing them in, even on the road --- Capacity crowd of 1,496 at Santa Clara yesterday -- a 5-0 San Diego State win.
