If you ever wanted to see what that is, read the Sports Illustrates article about Mr. Steven Strasburg of the San Diego State Aztecs.
Throwing a fastball that has topped 102 (I did not type that wrong), and with a wicked slider, this guy can "bring it" as they say. Amazingly, he got no looks out of high school due to his tendency to be overweight and "soft" as some scouts noted. Now he will go #1 in the June Draft to the Nationals (unless they screw it up), get a fat contract (and Mr. Boras will make sure of that) and be pitching in the MLB by September or so. He actually has more upside than David Price.
