    Just going by their pictures, Villalona looks more likely to be a murderer than Montero.

    If it was Basketball we were talking about I still would go with Villalona because he seems to have a better shot.

    He has and always will be a guy with the ceiling of a back of the rotation starter.

    His minor league numbers are superb but his stuff doesn't match. I've seen him multiple times live and 1)his FB was flat + rarely topped 90 mph; 2)his above-average changeup aside, he had no command of a lackluster breaking ball.

    He is what he is. If he doesn't have command or develop a solid breaking ball as a starter he'll get crushed. Much like an Ian Kennedy.

    I agree, even though I think he could be a number 3 (just not in the AL East)

    Wonder where his velo is at. If he continues to sit 96-98 with that devastating slider, he could make the team out of Spring.

    Strasburg's a righty. That deal keeps getting better for them.

    Re: Another team's prospects thread

    Especially after yesterday's performance.

    "Stephen Strasburg, making his second professional start, dealt for the first time in years with the experience of getting rocked. In Thursday's Arizona Fall League game between Strasburg's Phoenix Desert Dogs and the Peoria Javelinas, Strasburg went 2 2/3 innings, allowing eight runs, seven earned, and three home runs. He gave up seven hits, walked one and struck out four."
