Strasburg taking the mound tonight on ESPNU 7:00PM

[P_Manning 18]

back to back wild pitches.

It's either a hit or a strike out against Strasburg lol.

 

[Hallsgator]

Infield RBI hit. 2-0 UVA

Should have been blocked. Too bad the catcher catches only once per week.

Edit: Third time this inning the catcher fails.

But he did bounce them in... the 2nd looked like it could have been blocked.

Now another passed ball.... time for a new catcher.

Error on Strasberg

Obviously you've never watched him before...

 

[P_Manning 18]

49 pitches thru 2 innings.

He better settle down or he wont make it out of the 4th.

 

[Hallsgator]

It's Strasburg's personal catcher too.

I think you mean his catcher needs to settle down or he won't make it out of the 4th.

 

[Jaypers]

Definitely a mixed bag tonight. I think that HR is still on his mind, as he's been using his secondary stuff more often since.

Obviously you've never watched him before...

He finally faces worthy competition and he is struggling.... MLB hitters will eat him for dinner.

No way he should pitch in anything higher than A ball this year.

He dominated the Olympics which are AA type players.

No I have not, lol, but if I was to rate him based on this performance I am not impressed

The catcher isn't catching either, but that's just my observation.

1 performance means nothing though, I agree with Manning who said he's overhyped, but he's still alot better than any other pitcher in College Baseball, only guy close is Mike Leake.

But when you pitching in St Marys league of the Blind... you go 13-0 with a tiny ERA and you strike out a ton of guys. You play a TEAM that is good.... you see the real guy come out.

 

[bballcardkid]

Through 2IP, he has 5 K's, 2 runs on 3 hard hit balls an error and 3 questionable mishaps by the catcher, gets ahead in the count on nearly every hitter, and he is declared overhyped?

Sounds like there are a few people on a witchhunt here.

So? What does that have to do with the number of pitches Strasburg has thrown?
