Or so that is what Davey said after the game.  WTH?

As if 1st inn wasn't strange enough for Strasburg, Davey also said he got "hot stuff in the wrong place." Strasburg wouldn't talk about it.

The insinuation from Davey: Somebody put something like Icy-Hot on Strasburg in a place it shouldn't have been before game.

Asking around, there's no way it was a prank on Strasburg. No one in there is that dumb. Strasburg seemed miffed Davey brought it up.

Strasburg, when asked about "hot stuff": "You know, I'm going to keep that in the clubhouse."

Stras seems like a very shy, private guy. I bet he's pissed at Davey. Davey should know better.

Agree 100%.  This troubles me greatly.  Luckily Stras is locked into the Nats for a long time for that relationship (between him and either Davey or the next coach) to be repaired.

That or Stras needs to learn to deal with the fact that he's a public figure.

BREAKING: Strasburg to the DL with testicle burns. RHP scheduled to see Dr. Andrews about Tommy Jock surgery.

Jesus.  If this is the reason for his poor performance, whoever did this should be forced to eat the icy hot from the jock.

My guess? Lannan.

And I definitely think Strasburg should petition to have all runs be unearned today. :lol:

This is beyond idiotic.  On the day he starts???

Why not take out a bow and arrow and shoot him in the arm?  Or poison the post game spread?  That should be good for a few chuckles!  >:(

From Kilgore:

Quote
The sense in the Nationals’ clubhouse was no one would have pulled a prank on Strasburg on the day he pitched – nobody would be that dumb. Baseball clubhouses are full of jocularity and pranks, but they don’t take precedence over winning.


Players found it plausible that the ointment had found the wrong place by accident. Some pitchers will use the Hot Stuff to prepare for a start and get their blood flowing. It is possible the rain and wet conditions caused the ointment to move to the wrong part of Strasburg’s body.


HE is the someone!  :shock:
