Is Strasburg Washington's Mark Prior?

If we're doing the mythical awesome rotation then you have to fit a healthy Guzman in there.

Sure, but Guzman couldn't even get out of the minors unscathed....That said, sure he'd be the #2 in this fantasy.

Imagine the 2008 team with Prior/Z/Dempster/Lilly as the first four in the rotation.

 

If you're imaging this with Prior staying healthy, why not Wood as well? He would've been only 31 in 2008. He would be in the same boat as Z where he walks too many guys to be a true ace/elite pitcher, but might as well include him. Those 5 would've racked up like 1,000 Ks...

what if you throw sutcliffe in there

Stephen Stasburg was bothered by stray Hot Stuff in his groin during Tuesday's loss to the Padres.

Hot Stuff is an analgesic ointment like Icy-Hot that is often used as a muscle-loosener. But it can also be quite painful when applied to ... more sensitive skin. "I can’t really tell you what the problem was, but some Hot Stuff got misplaced," manager Davey Johnson said. "It was on his shoulder and evidently – I don’t know how it got to where it got, but it was uncomfortable, to say the least." Strasburg allowed four runs in four innings.

 

Ha!
