2013 MLB Regular Season running thread

Strasburg 1-4 now.

Can you say "overhyped"?

Which part, the 3.19 ERA, the 1.12 WHIP or the 28 Ks in 31 innings?

I guess he just "doesn't know how to win."

No.

He's got a sub-3.00 ERA, a 1.19 WHIP and a .227 BAA.

Wins are a team stat, and the Nationals right now aren't playing like a very good team.

Pretty much.

Quite frankly, winners find a way. Look at Jack Morris.

He had the most wins of anyone in the 80s!

It's why we all know Trent Dilfer is a great quarterback, and Dan Marino isn't.

Dilfer, afterall, found a way to win a Super Bowl; Marino didn't.

If Strasburg were as good as he was hyped to be coming up, he would find a way to win games like today.

He can call up a list of Royals aces from the past 25 years for advice on how to deal with having good stats and a shirtty record.
 
I think back to a guy like Rick Helling. Maybe not as good of stuff as Strasburg. But knew how to win. Knew how to lay it on the line.
 
Braves three outs from winning their first game this season without the benefit of a home run. Ironically, the game is being played in Colorado.

Well played, NDJinxalist.
