Alright NT. He's done it again. The number one rated prospect for next year's draft just hurled another no-hitter, this time recording 17 K's. AirForce looked like a high school team tonight.

Excuse my ignorance, I thought the kid throwing all the no hitters was in high school now. What college does he go to?
 
I hope this kid lives up to the hype. It would be nice to see someone with his potential dominate in the league when he comes up.

When's the draft? Next month, right?

Yeah, it's actually being televised too. I believe it's on MLB Network.

seriously

maybe a tune up game or two in AAA then bring him up. Letting him sit at the moment won't be helping him out much.
 
Went to the game last night. He appeared to be getting tronger and throwing his best heat in the 9th.

They have the 1st pick, I believe. If I were them, I would throw all the money I could possibly throw at him. I read a while ago that Boras isgoing to represent him, and might be looking for 5 years $60 million.
 
The Nats HAVE to draft Strasburg and do everything in their power to sign him... If they don't, they might as well start thinking about contraction...

And if they were smart, they'd draft him next month and shut him down for the year... It looks like he'll comfortably pass the "last year'sinnings + 10%" rule of thumb most teams use with their pitching prospects by the time his college season is over, and that's without factoring in theinnings he threw during the Olympics...
