It's Stephen Strasburg's World

We're all just living in it.

Big night last night.  Strasburg, who could never possibly live up to the hype, simply went out and exceeded all expectations with 14 Ks in 7 innings of work.  I watched the first few innings on my iPod and was stunned by the movement on his pitches.  You heard it here first, er, last- he's gonna be a good one.

Another heralded prospect made his debut last night as Mike Stanton went 3-for-5 in the Marlins loss to Philadelphia.  I wonder if two HOFers have ever debuted on the same day.  No, I'm not getting ahead of myself.

What else?  Well, Carlos Pena decided to stop sucking at precisely the wrong time.  I hardly saw any of the game last night but it sure had the feel of one of those inevitable losses in the early going.

20 more rounds of the draft today and then the Jays try to even things up tonight against David Price.  Lovely.
