      Well - it was fun while it lasted. The Phils offense sucks so hard that you have to pitch a perfect game and hope for an unearned run to get the win. And for the record, Maybin should have caught that. I'm mean, c'mon!!

        NL Cy Young--Ubaldo Jiminez continues to be the second coming of Bob Gibson, while pitching half of his games in Coors Field! Roy Halladay, who just pitched a perfect game and has an ERA under 2, hasn't a prayer at this point.
        He's been lucky so far. He'll get hit up as Halladay was a few games ago.

          It is looking like I may be attending Strasburg's first start.

            That should be memorable.

                From start to finish, he looked stupid. From charging an older pitcher, to older pitcher waxing him in front of millions, for evermore.

                    Strasburg's first three outs (from Ozzy's vantage point):

                      14Ks and 0 BBs, in 97 pitches (7 innings). 4 hits, and responded very well from that 2 run homer.

                      Amazing debut for Strasburg

                        Against the Pirates. They're a AAA team, not a Major League team. His first four starts are all against lousy teams:

                        Pirates
                        Indians
                        White Sox
                        Orioles

                        Wake me up when he faces a team that's above .500

                          Still an impressive debut, especially considering the microscope he was under.

                          Next Roger Clemens? Or next Mark Prior?

                                classic. But I was thinking along those lines also.

                                But considering the attention, I think he did fine. And I don't care if he does it against crappy teams as long as he's consistently good. You know they arranged it this way to help his confidence. (which I think was reasonably smart)
