Strasburg, of course, helped deliver the Nationals the 2019 World Series -- he was named the Most Valuable Player of that series after throwing 14 1/3 innings and surrendering just four runs. That accomplishment capped one of the most impressive months of individual pitching in recent memory, as Strasburg posted a 1.98 ERA in 36 1/3 frames.He subsequently signed a seven-year pact worth $245 million to remain in D.C. Unfortunately, he was limited to just eight starts afterward due to his aforementioned injury issues.

Yeah, it's all bullshit. Players aren't healthier because they get pampered. Their careers aren't lasting longer.

If you're the White Sox and you don't trade Crochet, are you going to shut him down or pitch him as normal?

Bannister, their organizational pitching guy, doesn't believe in shutting down. He likes to reduce.

Throw him til his arm falls off and then put him out there right handed.
