Stephen Strasburg, RHP, Nationals (Triple-A Syracuse)
Wednesday's stats: 6 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 7 K
It's a waste of time to talk about how well Strasburg pitched, and it's a waste of time to act like him delivering six no-hit innings has any effect on his big league timetable, which remains on course for an early June debut. We can have fun with numbers, though--and share that so far,
opposing batters are 14-for-116 (.121) against Strasburg, with two doubles, eight walks and 40 strikeouts. My favorite split?
Batters leading off an inning against the uber-prospect are 0-for-31. It's really all the fun we can have at this point. You know, other than watching him pitch.
