I am ready to buy all Strausberg cards that sold for more than ten thousand and up for $20 cash. If you have a better offer please email me.
The question is how many guys can you remember that people thought would be the next Koufax, Ryan, or Johnson?

Except for Clemens' troubles he didn't have a bad arm.

the guy who bought the Strasburg for 16k and sold it two weeks later for 25k looks brilliant, the guy who bought it for 25k ... not so much!

modern card logic.... will never make sense to me!

I feel sorry for the kid. He has a great arm and hopefully he can make the comeback. It's difficult for me to get into baseball anymore but he certainly got me interested the times he pitched. Medicine has come a long way and don't be surprised it he doesn't come back as strong as ever.

It's always a bad bet on any new pitcher, injuries come often. Remember Mark Fidrych? RIP.

The problem with thinking someone's the next Babe Ruth is if he turns out to be the next Jimmie Foxx you're disappointed.
