Green Guy Bass

This will not be happening unless we make some serious coaching changes.

really? the fans weren't sorry there?

Watch the effing game. Moron. Oh yeah and of his 95 pitches, 75 were strikes. In 3 of his 4 starts he did not issue a single walk. Kerry Wood wasn't doing shit like this by the way.

Because they are protecting his arm a bit and limiting his pitches and innings, he might not be 'better' than them in 2010. But his stuff is just as good. Curveball? I would say it is better if not on par. The fact all 3 can go upper 90's and even 100MPH it makes their breaking stuff that much more nasty. The reason I say he has the best breaking ball is because if you notice his delivery and arm slot is almost identical with every type of pitch he throws. And I like what did you there.

Look ass. I just don't see how anyone that has ever taken in a game or watched one on television can watch him pitch and not admit to themselves that he is beyond special. His fastball reaches triple digits and he has the BEST breaking ball going and he is making his 4th start. If you just watch what the hell I am talking about, I find it hard that even your stubborn ass would disagree that he is head and shoulders better than about 80% of the aces in the bigs. Why you can't admit that he is not all-star caliber and a legit superstar is just laughable. How many games from lebron did you see before you labeled him as great? I understand you might have certain parameters for greatness built into your head, but to say slow down on this guy is absurd. As I finish this entry he just fanned the side, 7K's 4IP. Yeah, he doesn't deserve your approval yet.

If you morons want to see SS, he is pitching now on MLB network. He has already fanned 4 through 3IP. Maybe if you actually watched him and witnessed how big of a badass he is you wouldn't go on and sounding so ill-informed.

so dumb

The schedule is happenstance. They kept him down until June because they wanted to have control of him for an extra year. By brining him up in June the Nats have one extra year and an extra year before he is arbitration eligibe. Are the Nats facing crap teams in interleague play? Yes. But so are your 1st place Rangers.

Thank you. I am sure it will piss off the old guys in the balcony, but if SS has two more outstanding starts, he should be on the NL roster for the ASG.

This message board started to take a down-turn when they did the big format change. Just my opinion. Something about it makes me not want to fly by it as much....that along with KRAM and UNT90.

Finally something we agree on.

No. That would be an MLB record for a pitcher in his first three starts of his career. Go back to the your vuvuzuela.

Yep. A record 32K's in 3 starts. This kid is no superstar, right?

Maybe even crazier to see Borbon draw a walk to get to Treanor. Awesome win in many areas.

I saw Thad and his crew working this season firsthand on the sideline. The death penalty will be addressed, but I think a lot of the focus will be the turnaround last season under June Jones. Go ahead and call me a "traitor", but this should be a pretty interesting film. They put a lot of hard work into it and they are good people. However after selling the file to ESPN, there is a chance they will focus on the 80's stuff more than might I think. The original idea was to document the '09 season.

My baseball brain > Your baseball brain.

The guy had a year long build up to his 1st start. Had his minor league outings shown on the MLB network. Set a franchise record for strikeouts in his 1st big league start, and doing so in 94 pitches. His book is a 97-101 fastball and the best curveball in baseball at the age of 21. Will he have a rough outing every now and again?? Sure. But to say he is not a superstar is laughable.

want to reconsider this?

meh

I wish you would to show us how little you probably have in your bag.

I miss Bacsik too.

Nobody is asking you to be.

Which is what exactly? What the hell are you doing? Being pissed about an oil spill is not a liberal or conservative emotion. When man fucks up and in turn it helps destroy mother earth, shouldn't we all be pissed off?

This is never okay anywhere.

This what happens when we "drill baby drill".
