Strasburg nears return
Washington Nationals pitcher Stephen Strasburg made his pitching debut this season with Single-A Potomac, and it was a success.
Strasburg pitched a few innings and came away with a very impressive performance.
He was hitting 97 MPH on the radar gun with his fastball and looked a lot like the guy we saw before Tommy John surgery.
It remains possible that Strasburg will get called up to the Nationals and pitch in September.
Washington will be very cautious with their prized picher, but it would be helpful to get him work at the big league level before next season.
