Nationals should take no chances with Stephen Strasburg’s innings limit - The Washington Post

I really don't see it happening. I would skip a start every once in a while.

Did you tell Mike Rizzo they can't win the World Series without him? He may change his mind if he knew that.

They may not make the playoffs for another 10 years. By that time, he'll be in Texas, New York or Boston.

I remember people telling me I was stupid for thinking the Reds could sign Joey Votto to a long term extension.
