DMV: Strasburg Is the ‘Silent Assassin’
By Jamie Mottram | July 26, 2010
Great work by Dave Sheinin here focusing on Stephen Strasburg’s competitiveness. A tasty nugget found therein: “Since 2007 [ ... ] Strasburg has allowed 15 home runs. Of those 15, two never faced Strasburg again. The other 13? The next time they faced him, they went 1 for 12 with eight strikeouts and one walk.” [WaPo]

Nice (albeit slow) promo for Brothers of the Legacy is ruined with Larry Michaels chirping in at the end, almost made me puke hearing his voice.

Yeah, Michael chiming in at the end there was pretty jarring.
