Trust me...I'm still p**sed about not signing him...

I hadn’t gone quite as nuts looking into him as I have already with Strasburg, but I knew enough about Crow that I was really excited when he was there ninth…and REALLY disapppinted when he didn’t sign…

Nasty slider...even with control issues...you can see his fastball buzzing...

…he looks like he could pitch in the majors tomorrow…he doesn’t have his stuff today and he’s still dominant, when was the last time either of us wrote that about a Nationals’ pitcher…

Sign him up, give him a jersey…

This was the worst I've EVER seen him

Yah 6.0 IP 3 hits 0 ER. WAS the worst I’ve EVER seen. That’s right. BTW check out my report tomorrow. You’ll be surprised.

I want to thank the good Lord for making me a Philip Rivers fan.

Was this his first college start in a major league park? Is the pro mound the same height as college?

Still…not great on the Strasburg scale, but on the regular human pitcher scale, a nice game.
