His view, writing after Strasburg left with injury, is unchanged from the view he wrote after the fact last year. It's real easy to play MMQB and feel smart.
Either way, if this is limited to the oblique, nobody should be talking about the shutdown. That was about preserving his arm, not making his body muscles invincible to strain. Like the move or hate the move, it's about the health of his arm (which I worry will be an issue shortly).
why do you worry that it will be an issue?
