Strasmas II: The Strassurection.

12 months removed from Tommy John surgery, and Stephen Strasburg makes his long awaited return to the majors tonight at Nationals Park.

The real miracle will be to see if Baseball Jesus can make the rain stop long enough to get the game in tonight.

Glad this day is finally here. It's great just to see him on the mound again.

Definitely not the best weather for a return, but it's good to have him back. I saw some of his rehab starts and he's looking strong. For what it's worth, Rizzo told Sam Ryan of the MLB Network that Strasburg would likely start in a game tomorrow if tonight's game is postponed due to rain.
