What the fuck is wrong with people? He has pitched against the TWO OF THE FIVE WORST TEAMS IN THE MAJORS (according to the power rankings) and all of a sudden he is the second coming. Let’s see how he does over a season in which he has to play against teams don’t make about half the starting pitchers in the league look like Nolan Ryan

Hell, Kenshin Kawakami for the Braves is 0-8 and he pitched about the same quality of game against the Pirates as Strasburg (4 hits, 2 runs over 7 innings vs 4 hits, 2 runs over 6 2/3 innings).

All it takes is one swing of the bat here and he magically has a 5.5 ERA against the 2 worst teams in baseball

The same Lincecum who gave up 3 runs in Pittsburgh and couldn't record half the strikeouts Strasburg did?

Forget this generation, Stephen Strasburg is already the greatest pitcher in major league baseball history.
