The hype machine has already led me to kind of hate Stephen Strasburg. |

Sorry Stephen, not your fault, but I can't stand you.

But speaking as a fan of a different downtrodden team WITHOUT a Strasburg for every sports media fool to slobber over incessantly, it's a little annoying!

3. At least they're starting him against an equally horrid team. |

5. He has faced better hitting AAA clubs than Pittsburgh. |
|
It's a soft landing, no doubt.
He's good though.

I'm just hoping the Nats don't burn this young kid's arm out too quickly.

7. They are being very careful with him |
|
I just saw him throw a 101 mph strike- quite impressive! Too bad about that one bad pitch
