Stephen Strasburg Player Page

They said it...

"Strasburg had one shaky start in the AFL but otherwise dominated with a fastball that sat at 94-99 mph and touched triple digits, mixing in a plus-plus breaking ball. Facing professional hitters also gave Strasburg the opportunity to work in his plus changeup, a third swing-and-miss offering."

Ben Badler, Baseball America - December 3, 2009

"Hit 100 mph legitimately more than a few times; paired it with a 70 breaking ball and 60 change on the 20-80 scouting scale.  Things to keep working on: Fastball command, and pitching with runners on."

Jason Grey, ESPN.com - November 17, 2009

"That's the best comp I've heard [when asked if the best current major league player to compare Strasburg to is Justin Verlander]. I was going to go with J.R. Richard, which shows how old I am."

J.J. Cooper, Baseball America - August 21, 2009
