I think Strasburg is on a similar trajectory from limitless potential to just north of average for his career. You have to wonder if these kids have appropriate training etc., to be wrecking their elbows so young.

It seems the research I've done is that it basically is attributed to throwing harder than average. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I would have to rate Wood's game the best ever. But close behind are many others:
Three that come to mind are Pedro's 1-hit, 17K game vs. the Yankees , Ryan's 7th no-hitter vs. a loaded Toronto lineup, and my personal favorite, Halladay's Playoff No-Hitter vs. the Reds (I never saw a pitcher more in control than that). ...oh, and then there's Scherzer...WOW! . .

I agree Brent...IMHO, Pedro was the best I ever saw.
. . Have you noticed that 'everyone' seems to want to stick someone with label 'best pitcher in the game'...and no one seems to keep that unofficial title more than a year or two. Verlander gave way to Halladay who gave way to Kershaw who seems ready to give way to Scherzer. Lonely at the top! . .
