Absolutely.
I think that this is the ONE guy on the P side of the ledger (stras) that you have to say "screw arbitration years" and bring him north when they break ST. He single handidly can create interest and sell seats from the get-go, in a town that (despite the Caps being good) desperately needs a shot in the sports arm. ESPECIALLY since the agent 0 bs in hoops, and the city doing a collective "Dan Snyder is NOT spending money??" head shake

Really suprised MLB is not broadcasting this for free on mlb.tv, just to generate hits and drum up interest in the Nats.

Strasburg dazzles in spring debut
Nats righty tosses two shutout innings, strikes out Cabrera
VIERA, Fla. -- Nationals right-hander Stephen Strasburg, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2009 First-Year Player Draft, made his Spring Training debut against the Tigers at Space Coast Stadium on Tuesday afternoon and pitched two scoreless innings.
In the first inning, Strasburg retired the Tigers in order. His pitches were clocked no lower than 96 mph.
In the second inning, Strasburg faced the tough part of the order. He threw two 81-mph curveballs to Miguel Cabrera before striking out the slugger on a 98-mph fastball.
The next hitter, Carlos Guillen, grounded out to Ryan Zimmerman on a 97-mph fastball. After giving up consecutive singles to Don Kelly and Alex Avila, Strasburg regrouped and struck out Brent Dlugach looking on an 81-mph curveball.
Strasburg threw 27 pitches, 15 for strikes.
