The Phenom is Human After All

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

Stephen Strasburg, the 21 yr old phenom who pitches for the Washington Nationals, proved to be human last night against the Atlanta Braves. He never got untracked, looked tentative and dropped his record to 2-2 in a 5-0 loss.

The kid gets no run support from the team. The only pitcher to be able to win without run support is Ubaldo Jimenez of the Rockies. Strasburg, is the real deal.

Oh, I agree that he is the real deal, but there were people giving him directions to Cooperstown already.
