Stephen Strasburg is the greatest pitcher ever. His dominance is equaled only by his greatness. His baseball card sells on ebay for 58 million dollars and his enormous manhood is already the talk of locker rooms around the league.
There has been a lot of talk in baseball circles about whether Strasburg should be in this years All Star Game in Anaheim. Clearly he not only belongs there but should also play all nine positions. Even playing shorthanded the score would still probably be something like STRASBURG 16 - A.L. 0.
Fortunately, the folks in Cooperstown have taken notice and in an unprecedented move, Strasburg will be inducted into the National Baseball Hall Of Fame this Summer. To accommodate the young fireballer, the committee waived the 5 year waiting period as well as the pesky requirement of actually having to have any kind of prolonged success in baseball.
Today at 4:10 in Washington, D.C., the Mets will face the great Strasburg. They will try their best not to embarrass themselves too badly in the presence of history's greatest pitcher. David Wright sums up the situation, "A lot of the guys didn't even want to show up, what with him being so great and all. In the end we decided we will play so we could tell our kids one day about the time we were beaten by the greatest human being who ever lived."

I full expect all Mets hitters to stand in awe with bats on shoulders and take 3 strikes. It would be futile to swing at the un-hitable. My prediction: 81 pitches, 27Ks, Perfect Game!
