June 9, 201015 yr Author QUOTE (Reddy @ Jun 8, 2010 -> 08:12 PM) Strasburg, Harper, Zimmerman, Dunn, Desmond, Storen, Clippard, Flores Don't look now, but them Nationals might make some noise pretty soon. Don't forget the Reds and Pirates (the former already obviously making noise).
June 9, 201015 yr QUOTE (qwerty @ Jun 8, 2010 -> 08:15 PM) One strikeout short of the mlb record in a debut. Just behind Bob Feller...pretty good company.
June 9, 201015 yr QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 8, 2010 -> 07:14 PM) That could take a while. He's in line to face the Indians, White Sox, Orioles, Giants, Padres and Braves (not in that order). Padres and Braves have been playing rather well. Regardless, after that stretch, Strasburg could have some ridiculous numbers.
June 9, 201015 yr Author QUOTE (Cowch @ Jun 8, 2010 -> 08:18 PM) Padres and Braves have been playing rather well. Regardless, after that stretch, Strasburg could have some ridiculous numbers. The Braves are the only team in that group with an above average offense.
June 9, 201015 yr QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Jun 8, 2010 -> 08:18 PM) Just behind Bob Feller...pretty good company. That was not a debut for feller. It was however his first start. He also struck out 17 later that year at the age of 17 against a very good hitting indians team. These are the two with 15. J.r. richard... Karl spooner...
June 9, 201015 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 8, 2010 -> 08:03 PM) I'm so pumped to watch Strasburg face the Sox next weekend on TV. I'm so pumped to watch it live!
June 9, 201015 yr QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Jun 9, 2010 -> 01:42 AM) I'm so pumped to watch it live! That's great, you have to imagine his jerseys are flying off the shelves.
June 9, 201015 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 8, 2010 -> 08:42 PM) That's great, you have to imagine his jerseys are flying off the shelves. Yeah, we bought tickets to stop in D.C. on the way back from Hatteras, NC for vacation a couple months back. Awesome luck on that one.
June 9, 201015 yr QUOTE (T R U @ Jun 8, 2010 -> 08:49 PM) Geez, how many of you douches are going to be cheering for him to dominate us? I'll be cheering for the Sox of course, but he is fun to watch.
June 9, 201015 yr QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Jun 8, 2010 -> 08:50 PM) I'll be cheering for the Sox of course, but he is fun to watch. I get that but some people seem like they want to see him rip us
June 9, 201015 yr QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 8, 2010 -> 10:24 PM) That was amazing. I honestly he could have K'd twenty if he hadn't been pulled. He'd have had to strike out 13 in a row to end the game.
June 9, 201015 yr QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 8, 2010 -> 10:36 PM) He'd have had to strike out 13 in a row to end the game. Towards the end they weren't even touching him. They weren't even coming close.
June 9, 201015 yr QUOTE (T R U @ Jun 8, 2010 -> 08:53 PM) I get that but some people seem like they want to see him rip us I'd love for him to rip the s*** out of this pile of s*** White Sox team.
June 9, 201015 yr Well, considering the Sox are, if not, worse than the Pirates, tonight was just a mini-preview what Strasburg will do to them.
June 9, 201015 yr QUOTE (robinventura23 @ Jun 8, 2010 -> 11:02 PM) Well, considering the Sox are, if not, worse than the Pirates, tonight was just a mini-preview what Strasburg will do to them. The Pirates have the 16th offense in the NL out of 16 teams.
June 9, 201015 yr QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jun 8, 2010 -> 09:54 PM) I'd love for him to rip the s*** out of this pile of s*** White Sox team. How very lame. How about they light him up for 7 and make him look mortal? It would be much cooler outcome of the two scenarios.
June 9, 201015 yr QUOTE (T R U @ Jun 8, 2010 -> 08:49 PM) Geez, how many of you douches are going to be cheering for him to dominate us? Haha I told J4L a couple days ago on the futuresox board don't jizz too hard when he dominates us. The strikeouts are nice but I was more impressed he had 0 BBs! 0 BB in his major league debut. That is just amazing. I'm pissed I missed most of his start (had to take my grandmother to the train station) but I saw the first couple of innings and he hit 99 and I was like damn. I read this thread and I see he hit 101 and 103?! That is just too sick for words. Nats really brought him up nicely to the horrid offenses of the Pirates and the White Sox to really get your feet going at the MLB level. Oh and BTW, they had a pretty nice draft this year to boot. (especially if they somehow sign A.J. Cole to pair with Strasburg as one of the sickest 1-2 punches in the game if he signs and pans out) Edited June 9, 201015 yr by SoxAce

June 9, 201015 yr Just watched it. I had to DVR it because I had class, and let me just say that was amazing. I am going to make sure I see him pitch every chance I get now, because that was amazing.
June 9, 201015 yr QUOTE (T R U @ Jun 8, 2010 -> 08:49 PM) Geez, how many of you douches are going to be cheering for him to dominate us? Me. What is one more loss in a terrible season when instead we can watch one of the most dominating pitchers I have ever seen in my life just feast on a pitiful lineup? Plus, it's not like I can't root for our opposing pitcher to dominate, and then we win in the 8th and 9th inning when Strasburg is removed after 90 some pitches and 15 K's.
