NFT: Mets v Nats

Strasbourg gives up a 3 run shot to Grandy following a great at bat by Lagares to draw a walk and David I got the power Wright follows with a home run to right. These guys are not the guys we saw last year. Not even close
Strasburg is no longer a once in a generation arm

Very good pitcher, but not what he was touted to be IMO

I was just thinking the same thing. Still very good, but not the scary pitcher he once was (or was supposed to be).

That being said...I'd still rather not face him.
Oh by no means do I mean to denigrate Strasburg

Very dominating at times. However, I don't see the monster he was projected to be.

still expect them to import SOMEONE but I'm guessing Gilmartin breaks camp with the Mets.
Hardy

is hurt. How about Verrett and Tejada for Matusz?
Strasburg  
arniefez : 3/28/2015 4:36 pm : link
has not been the same since he hurt his arm. Very good but not what he was before.

fairness to Strasburg he was still a 4.5 WAR pitcher last year good for 13th best in baseball. I agree with HH he's not a generational talent like some expected but he's very, very, very good.

Supposedly when Edgin got hurt Warthen tinkered with Famila to be more effective against lefties. Hoping that's all this is, but who k owe.
Didn't they sign Everth Cabrera?  
Eric on Li : 3/28/2015 7:19 pm : link
hows he doing?
Or maybe Familia is just working on some things  
Ira : 3/28/2015 8:34 pm : link
that he can't do when the games count. (just guessing.)
everyone left in camp will be travelling to rest of road games  
CGiants07 : 3/28/2015 8:40 pm : link
in spring training to build moral except those working back from injury
