The above video from The Post-Standard/Syracuse.com captures the buzz at Alliance Bank Stadium Friday night for the debut of Baseball Jesus. Note that the video was almost ruined around the 10-second mark at the sight of a guy in a Yankees cap wearing a Starsburg commemorative T-shirt. Strasburg and the Yankees: Scary thought there.
Meanwhile...MASN's Ben Goessling floated a theory yesterday -- based on "pure speculation and a scheduling quirk" -- that Strasburg could make his debut in Washington in 2 weeks, on Saturday May 22 against the Orioles. We're sticking with our original June 8 prediction, figuring the Nationals will prefer to start him during a weekday game at home to maximize ticket sales.
