I don't really follow baseball media, so I gotta ask: Is everybody who doesn't believe in sabremetrics/analytics this stupid?
lol @ anyone who seriously thinks the Nationals wouldn't have Strasburg pitch if they make the playoffs for the first time since moving to DC.

The Braves guy will totally do this if he gets the chance. Last night he played some Mozart for Cozart and Beethoven for Ludwick.

2 rookies in a row with homers.
The good and the bad with Bryce Harper's aggressive baserunning--yesterday tried to turn a double into a triple and got thrown out. They lost 3 to 2.

June 8th is Strasmas, though, the day for Strasburg to strike out a ton of dudes in honor of 6/8/2010's debut 14K in 7 IP.
― Dr. (C-L), Saturday, 9 June 2012 04:50 (eleven years ago) link
Does Strasburg go every fifth day even if an off-day follows, or do they hold him back? Looks like he'll start in Toronto on Wednesday. I'd go for sure, except, wouldn't you know it, it's an afternoon game.

Strasburg now at .385/.448/.654 in 26 at bats, maybe after he reaches his inning limit for the year they should use him as a pinch hitter?

Nationals starters have a combined 1.01 ERA in the last 6 games! Relievers at 3.46 during the same stretch which certainly isn't bad but I wish Johnson would let pitchers throw complete games more often, I get nervous once the bullpen warms up.
