Yes, but the idea of DIPS comes into play here IMO. He hit a grounder to short, that's an out 99.9% of the time.
Confirmation bias? You think he's terrible, you see what you want to see. Let's see what his WHIP is after one third of a freaking inning, that's smart. I'm telling you what happened. A single, a grounder to short that's almost always an out, and a strikeout. That's a 1 IP, 1 H, 0 BB, 1 K inning most of the time.
I'm saying, the facts are that outing sucked, and it's not like he has anything to turn back on. 5+ FIP and 2+ WHIP. Yes it's September, but I personally wanted to see a clean Strasburg win.
