Cool Stephen Strasburg
How good is this kid?

Are they wasting him in minors, should they just bring him up now?

Can he live up to the hypE when he gets to the bigs?

The reason he is not up already IMO is because his arbitration clock would start ticking

Think he will be up shortly after June 1st.

As far as the hype, sounds like he's the real deal. By comparison Leake from Cincy was another hyped pitcher from Arizona State who didn't spend a minute in the minors and he's doing very well

Strasburg is supposedly much better than him. We will see
