Oh no, it's another NO NO

These days just about anyone can throw a no hitter or so it seems. WTF Edwin Mother F'ing Jackson throws a No NO, what's next is Samual L. Jackson gonna roll out there and shut down 27 in a row? Come on what gives? Tampa has gone no hit three times in a span of one year. I'm sorry, but I long for the days when Bucket Head Bonds would blast dingers into the upper deck. We have gone from one extreme to the other, my godson Xavier would have at least slapped one into right field vs Jackson. Pitching has not improved but hitting skills(errrrrrr steroids) have all but disappeared from the game. I don't believe most teams have made the proper adjustments, players still believe they can go yard every at bat. Homeruns have gone down year after year since MLB implemented their new anti doping policy. Will we ever see another sixty homerun season? One thing is for sure pitching is hogging up all the headlines, two perfect games(should have been three we all know that drama, SAFE) and this will make four hitless games this year. Just imagine the stats guys like Maddux, Big Unit, and Pedro would have racked up if not for playing in the juiced era. Perfect season perhaps? 40 Wins? 20 shutout season? It's time to say goodbye to the Homerun race, and hello to the strikeout race. My money is on Strasburg.

P.S. Strasburg should be in the all star game, hell he should be the starter. Name one other baseball player causing more buzz than this guy, MLB would be passing up monumental chance to put the all star game back on the map.
