(A 2011 Exacta for the Hagerstown Suns: First Harper, now Strasburg. That screen cap selling Strasburg is via the Hagerstown Suns Official site.)
And so, it's official: Despite the heartfelt concern of Rob Dibble, Baseball Jesus himself will grace Hagerstown with a Strasmas miracle on Sunday. Stephen Strasburg emerged with his elbow intact after a side session on Thursday, and will officially pitch in Hagerstown on Sunday.
Better get your tickets soon...
The best thing about twitter is the ability to keep an eye on it when big news is expected and get the information fast.
I'll be there on Sunday in my 2nd-row seats rockin my Strasburg jersey, just like old times.
Gotta say, though, Strasmas was when Baseball Jesus was born. This is about his ressurrection, so ya gotta call it Streaster Sunday. Let's hope he's kind enough to hand out some easter egg's to the opponent's row on the scoreboard.
And how about two immaculate innings? That might be the only way for him to exceed expectations.

OK, sold: Streaster Sunday it is. The Streaster Miracle. Just hoping he emerges from Sunday's outing with arm intact.
