Down the road I wonder what kind of market value a unused ticket would have?

I might just fly coast to coast to watch his debut... roughly $1,000 for flights, hotel, meals etc... would be kind of fun.

"On the 8th day [of June], God created Stephen Strasburg". :mrgreen:


Now that's what I call an eventful 48 hours.

On the 7th they'll pick Harper. On the 8th, they'll send Stras to the mound.

Wish it was the 9th, we would have had a Hellickson vs. Strasburg match up on the 4th.

They'll go for a little bit, but there will be thousands of tickets purchased just for that reason, so they won't go for a ton.

I've been thinking this for a while and hate to have to say it, but every time I see or hear of Strasburg, I get one name in my head: Ben McDonald.

I'm gonna laugh if he give up like 8 runs in 3 innings! Doubt it though, he seems to be a beast.

I wonder how many people here who wish bad things for him own any of his cards.

I don't own a single one at present, and I wish nothing but the best for him.

I think more of Mark Prior and his mechanics are the same as Prior's as well. I have one base card i've kept and sold the rest.

So list Tomorrow.

What ending time? after the game, during? It's a rare thing where prospectors know the time and place that a mega-hyped prospect will decend from the clouds.

Who is wishing bad things for him?

Except Prior wasn't hurt because of his mechanics.
