  • STRAS BOSS. LEGGGOOOO NATS!!!!!

  • The nationals shouldn't be blamed. They babied him the whole time. Injurys happen if. Do u think that if the nationals would have traded him that he wouldn't have gotten injured?

  • cuold've done without the music...

  • anyone who is blaming the nationals organization for his injuries clearly doesn't know what they are talking about, his mechanics which he developed long before joing the nationals are what causes his arm problems, the so called "inverted W" where his elbow is above his shoulder as he is loading is what caused his injuries, he doesn't create tilt between his shoulders and hips meaning his arm doesn't have enough time to get to the correct position before his momentum begins moving forward

  • @godistheshit You are correct but the Nationals did make 2 errors that led him to his injury:

    1). He was having elbow problems coming out of college and the Nationals knew this. Yet they still decided to keep pitching him instead of having him evaluated...

    2). You are correct about the "inverted W". It causes the arm to depend more on the elbow and arm muscles instead of your legs. Mark Prior had the same mechanics and we all know what happened to him. Nats didn't even decide to look at that...

  • 23 strikeouts and it STILL wasn't a no-hitter! Crazy...

  • hello im stephen strasburg and im here to embarrass you

  • dunno where you guys get your news... strasburg needed tommyjohn right out of college, the nationals drafted him anyway, pitched him while he could still stand it, then threw him under the knife. no one "ruined" his arm other than himself. you have to ask yourself, why could Nolan Ryan throw in the 100s in his mid 40s, and this guy couldnt at 22 years old without surgery? MECHANICS.

  • you couldn't have made the video any bigger...?

  • Too bad that the Nats drafted Strasburg. That organization is riddled with incompetence, and it's questionable as to whether Strasburg will ever be the same thanks to the Nats dumb decision to rush him through the minors and overpitch him after promoting him to the majors.

  • can we just get a regular video without all this annoying music or obnoxious effects? all of the editing really takes away from his performance. keep in mind, 99% of the people watching this video just want to see the 23 strikeouts. that's it.

  • @armzama Turn off the volume bro... Other than that, what effects??? I saw all 23 strikeouts.

  • Filthy fuckin pitching, ugly fuckin jerseys

  • @mungill0 nah dude ugly pants man

  • Oh cool I was hoping when I clicked on this that there would be HORRIBLE music that made me exit it without watching it!

  • 21 people thought that pitch was outside.

  • I see a 4-seam and a 2-seam fastball, but what the hell is that other pitch? I can't tell if it is one pitch or 3 different ones. It sometimes has only slider movement, sometimes has only curve moment, and sometimes it looks just like a slurve. Whatever it is, that just isn't right.

  • @Hogwild32 It has the movement of both, Stephen refers to it as a Slurve.

  • That's simply not fair. Utah was facing a pitcher who was already fully capable of being one of the best in MLB. And they're a college team.

  • good song for the vid

  • MLB sucks nowadays due to 55% or more of  players use perform enhancing drugs aka steroids.

  • @maxstein2011 i dont think it would be that high.

  • @maxstein2011 where did you get that number from?

  • @maxstein2011 that is probably from the past 5 years but there were not alot last year that was the whole reason for "the year of the pitcher".

  • @maxstein2011 Haha, way off. Almost none of the use testosterone simulate or anything like that. Believe it or not, some people actually work hard to play the sport they love.

  • that is crazy future MLB MVP right there

  • It's a shame he got hurt, there was a lot of anticipation for this guy to do great things and now hes out for 18 months. I hope he comes back strong....

  • lord have mercy!!!!

  • @Hottie13452 the record for strikeouts in an MLB game is 18. Don't make s**t up

  • @dgcyb04 No...it's 20.

  • @dgcyb04 this is real i was at this game

  • @dgcyb04 still 20

  • Comment removed

  • I am a baseball agent, text me if you would like me to represent you. 714.900.3583. G SLOAN

  • now the phillies or yankees are gonna get him because they get every1 good lol

  • this song does not fit the kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk's but it does not matter because he possibly could b the next cy young,they could even change the name to the strasburg award

  • he is filthy

  • I don't get it. Major League hitters feast on 95 mph fastballs, but can't hit one coming in at 99 mph.

  • @burns1210 2 miles can make a difference, imagine 4, think of it as someone throwing a 90 mph slider now add 4 miles to that slider and its all of a sudden unhittable.

  • u faggs r just jealous that ur not as goood as this freakk!

  • thats insane!

  • Say what you want about this guy, but think about it. A 21 year old throwing a 100 plus MPH fastball, and a curveball that has a rediculous amount if curve. This kid can pitch now MAYBE he'll throw his arm out or maybe that's exactly what people were saying when Nolan Ryan made his appearence... I'm not saying that he's the greatest, I'm saying that he has a chance...

  • what song is this?

  • He has elf ears!!!

  • Im sure Utah saw the game against pittsburg and said at least we got a runner in scoring position haha

  • he'll wear his arm out in a few years... he sucks

  • Seems to be a pitcher-friendly ump.

  • Seeing as LeBron James plays BASKETBALL in Cleveland and strasburg pitches in Washington DC in a sport we call baseball I would assume there is no coincidence.

  • 14 K's and 0 BB's in 7 innings is pretty impressive for any major league pitcher. This kid has excellent stuff and his control is amazing. I wish you well Stephen. Sure wish I could watch him pitch in person.

  • 14 K's 0 BB in 7 innings for ANY maqjor league pitcher that would be pretty sweet. Now consider he's a kid still learning the art of pitching. Geeze, what an excellent start. Keep it up kid!

  • Hitters going to figure him out sooner or later.

    He plays for a shitty team.

    Only 14ks not 23 Ks.

    Roger Clemens 20Ks game twice.

  • @islamDick he pithed only 7 inings an had 14 ks in his 1st mlb start. roger clemens pitched 9in. and had 20 ks in when he ha been play for a couple of years.

  • @islamDick idiot this is at san diego state when he set the record there for 23ks in a game. his major league debut was 14k over 7 innings thanks and good night

  • The next Nolan Ryan!

  • Against a poor playing Pirates, that's very impressive. Wait until he faces Yankees, Cardinals, pujols, manny ramirez, jeter, giambi, holliday, lol. He will turn out an ugly joke. The German halfbreed embarrasment's celebration won't last long.

  • Your opinions are an ugly joke, number man.

  • youre a fuckin retard. thats all i have to say.

  • @6313635 The fuck is wrong with germans? Racist biiiitch.

  • First of all, change that ugly German last name "strasburg" nobody likes Germans.

  • tomorrow we'll see what the hype is all about.

  • @cm3003 14 KS

  • @nickgators he threw the nastiest curveball i've ever seen in my fucking life.

    he went above and beyond my expectations.

  • @cm3003 any time you do what he did in a debut he is special easily one of the best pitchers in the league

  • @cm3003 only 14ks

  • small view

  • the movement on those pitches are crazy

  • Wow, did no one really not foul off a pitch there?

  • his stuff is so stick even the catcher can't catch them sometime

  • wow... how ironic... the number of strikeouts is lebron james number is this a sign??? :O

  • That was like watching a video game, no he's pretty dominant and i hope he can bring the heat in the majors like he does in this video

  • the nats have done a good job nuturing him through minor leagues. All signs point to amazing come June

  • i wish the Yankees could just buy him from the Nats

  • send him up my fantasy team needs him now

  • I agree that he hasn't done anything yet but his stuff looks insane

  • He is probably the best pitching prospect of all time. But we've all been let down by the sure thing. It's exciting to consider what he may become but for now he is only potential.

  • uh oh. He's gonna be pitching against my braves.

  • Haha look at the second and seventh batter. They swing at every pitch out there.

  • Aite guys I agree with the fact tht thi guy is insane BUT u hav to put add the fact tht most MLB players are there for there hitting and if u rly look the pitches are either down the middle or outta the zone and his curveball is dirty but he needs more experience to b succesfull in the bigs great stuff tho

  • Great production and nice song choice...didn't know who it was but went perfect with the split third screen shots. Nice K counter too. Strasburg is going to be fun to watch in seasons to come.

  • Eddie Bane?

  • cant wait till i see him pitch..

  • he will be the next Randy Johnson

  • Better. Nolan Ryan

  • better yet. Sergio Mitre. Nolan Ryan is way overrated anyway.

  • No he won't theres only one randy johnson and theres only one nolan ryan. Strasburg all he is now is potential. Im so sick of everyone putting labels on these prospects oh "hes the next George Brett" "he's the next Wade Boggs" and they usually never end up living up to their hype because people put too much pressure on them. These prospects will create their own idendity but we can't compare them to hall of famers even if they haven't even played in the bigs yet!

  • yes agreed, well put.

  • @redsoxking10 I'm with ya man; i hate the way everyone rides on this kid's cock when he hasn't even played one major league game yet. 23 strikeouts is insane but look at who he did it against, Utah okay, when he pulls that off against an MLB team then I'll ride his cock like everyone else but until then he's just a college kid who is nothing but potential.

  • Yeah I'm hoping that he's not like the rest who came before him, that he's the chosen one. It would be great for baseball. But I think he will he been very mature about all this hype and he's not overconfident.

  • *will be

  • yea frisky magic i remember the first time i thought i was peter gammons

  • hahaha

  • this guy doesnt seem so great now that im watching this video although it is a terrible video but he doesnt mess around with his speed and everything seems to be out of his control and alot of it is right down the middle the pro's will tear this guy apart, he needs to strategize and gain control if he does that he can have a bright future

  • @FriskyMagic im sure you can throw 23 ks in a game... the kid is the second coming of nolan ryan... keep your useless sports knowledge outta here.... he clearly paints the zone and theres only up from here for him.... he'll be more than great

  • He is doing this in the AFL right now, just a matter of time before he does it in the pros

  • Comment removed

  • he has a dirty curveball

  • Oh and Strausberg is gonna rot with the shittiest team ever

  • wtsek: are you by any chance a hardcore baseball fan or just someone who checks the standings every morning? The Nationals are by far the least team that sucks. There are a dozen or so teams out there with a worst future. In fact, if you knew anything about what's going on right now, you would know that the Nationals would be one of the best hitting teams in baseball. Their pitching is much better, they just had a terrible start. And, I'm not a Nats fan fyi.

  • thanx 4 understanding. u are right bout everything u said

  • @MrSportsFellow relax...the nats arent much..yet

  • @MrSportsFellow do u know anything about baseball?? just because the nationals got 1 great pitcher and a good hitter doesn't mean there going anywhere, 2 players doesn't create a team.

  • @MrSportsFellow yep, and now Strasburg is out for a year because of his stupid throwing motion, and you have Zimmerman, Dunn and a bunch of washups and prospects that won't perform. Yayayayay.

  • @MDFromNC13 Bryce Harper................

  • Why would Bumgarner be in the starting rotation, Sanchez is way better than he is.

  • Nah , Sanchez has pressure problems and comand problems. He's pitching today against the D-bags. Bumgarner has PERFECT command but his arm just died all of a sudden but its common for a minor leaguer. Sanchez DOES have deadly stuff but as a Giants Fan , I can't rely on him. Cain just threw batting practice yesterday and the D-bags got 7 runs off him so Cain is tired and Lincecum is tired too. I would trade Sanchez for a power bat.

  • Yeah, But I still wouldn't put Bumgarner in. If there were to trade Sanchez, they would just need to re-sign Penny. Yes he had one bad outing but besides that he has been solid. It's better to keep Bumgarner in the bullpen so he can get more experience.

  • but..... hes not. so keep dreaming fool.

  • yankees do what anyone would if they had the dough to do it,

  • He will be in new york soon dont worry

  • fuck the tankees and nats arnt even good enough for him i mean the yankees r good enough but they r fuckers so id say go to the nats wat do i care

  • he's ours bitch!

  • but this kid is good i hope he does well with the nats and if they cant keep him... hopefiully the yanks unless the nats want to much for him

  • what song is this?

  • what is the name of the song?

  • i feel bad for the catcher if they ever get the signs mixed up and he throws a fastball when he calls a slider

  • Yes GO NATS'!

  • with no movement on that fastball he wont be fooling any big league hitters not matter how hard he throws. If he can develop a Halladay type cutter he could be worth the $15 million he just signed for.

  • you can't win with a 100mph straight fastball? Tell that to justin verlander. and his breaking pitches are unreal.

  • no movement. NO MOVEMENT??!!! please hit your refresh button ASAP

  • FUK DA NATIONALS GO YANKEES!!!!!!!!!

  • Go Sox yanks suck. Red Sox r gettin Arlondis Chapman not the yankees

  • its Aroldis, and the Red Sox BLOW.

  • Got rings lately? Yankees suck

  • hey u do know that if the yanks win this year theyll have the same amount of rings as the sox for this decade...

    the way the sox r playing boy i dont think theyre gonna even make the playoffs

    the yanks up 7 games... dayum thats gotta hurt red sox fans

    yanks have the best record and we all know the way theyre playin nobody can beat them...

    and u wont b able to say got rings lately? cuz the yanks are gonna win this year

    and umm the sox dont even half of the rings the yankees have

  • lol whoever spends the most gets the best team these days I suppose. Baseball won't be serious until theres a cap.

  • uh yeah, we got one this decade and are about to get another. also, if we suck and we're 8 games ahead of the sox, what does that say about them?

  • sox suck

  • Got 26 championships? oh yeah, you don't.

  • And u were born 4 zero

  • ok sure genius, in the time i've been alive the yankees have won 4 championships and the red sox won two. there's your proof, the red sox are HALF as good as good as the yankees.

  • What is a middle aged man doing on youtube?

  • U know the rest of the league hates you and your gay organization

  • yeah, guess it's lonely at the TOP

  • His fastball has no movement. Give me Neftali Feliz....they are the same age.

  • it's "list of demands" by Saul williams... thanks to SHAZAMM

  • Hey what's the name of this song? I've heard it before on a football/Gatorade commercial and can't figure it out

  • what song is this

  • that was to youkskinfan

  • Go Nationals!

  • fail

  • holly shit!! so much has been said about him so i decided to look him up and see what he gots and all i gotta say is..holly shit!! unbelievable stuff...one day he will be a yankee!

  • eew-yanks suck!

  • nationals would still suck cause they won't be willing to get anyone else... sucks for stephen cause he's amazing. im just happy the yanks wont have to face him

  • he's got a nasty slider

  • A majority of those calls were good ones.

  • ump seemed to be quite generous on some of those called strikes

  • SICK CUTTER

  • its a slider...

  • he has a disgusting curveball

  • whats this song called?

  • list of demands - saul williams

  • hes gonna be the next hershey and danny furtaw

  • Comment removed

  • why are u watching it then dumbass

  • loser

  • His fastball and curveball remind me of a young Doc Gooden.Hopefully he doesn't ruin his career and waste away his talents like Doc did either.

  • has this guy pitched in the minors yet?? anyone know??? if so whats he look like against minor league hitters

  • dude he isn't even in the baseball association yet. this is college he still has to accept the nationals offer

  • no shit you dumb fuck, read what i wrote..i asked a question...

  • wow

  • WTF! This guy has a playstation-esque slider! UNreal the way it has a swooping action,the bottom falls out!

    Boras wants 6yrs and 50 mill i believe which is WRONG for a unproven player.

    much can go wrong and some MLB team could be sattled with his contract that will cripple their franchise. (nationals)

    He's worth it after a 3yr-18mill type of rookie contract to me.

  • this is cool but this video fuckin sucks, it's too small and you make it really boring. typical of SDSU

  • this guy has STUFF...

    98-103 MPH blazing 4 seamer

    94-98 MPH dirty 2 seamer

    87-91 MPH absolutely nasty slider

    thats the makings of a great major league pitcher if he has consistency and doesnt blow his arm out

  • thats my wind up!!!

  • couldn't strike out all 27. no I'm kidding he's the next great pitcher. He and Tommy Hanson, my hometown pitcher, are the next great pitchers. I wish him luck, and hope he brings the Nationals into the contest of our sorry division.

  • this guy was fucking ON

  • Who is the singer who is singing this song?

    I like it.

  • saul williams - list of demands-

    I think

  • ok anyone can hit a 95 mph fastball after u see it a cupple times so all u ppl who think there so good cuz they can hit a 95 mph fastball u not considered good if u think ur good go try to hit a 95 mph fastball and then have someone throw u a curve ball or change up at 70- well good luck =]

  • yeah, and i can hit 103 but i don't know about 113. whatever!

  • I can hit pitchers throwing 93....but i don't know about 103....

  • Guys i now hes an amazing pitcher but he still must become better to become this legend everyone believes he will become, dont take me wrong hes great but college and the majors r alot different. The fastball and curveball he throws are great but in the majors they see that everyday and they r acourse much better than your everyday college player.

  • ya but they also use tin bats in college

  • my coach used to play at San Diego State

  • cool

  • phil hughes is better and he blows
