Sports Illustrated posted the cover of their June issue on Facebook today. Thanks to Federal Baseball for pointing this out, but on the top right-hand corner of this issue (hitting stands tomorrow) the headline reads as it does in this post.
(Click here to see the SI cover.)
While we’re still a ways away from seeing Bryce Harper at Nationals Park, young Strasburg will be making his Major League debut (pending weather/extenuating circumstances) on June 8.
Nice to see DC getting some MLB street cred in the sports community.
I mean heck, the Nationals were number one on StubHub thanks to the big June 8 announcement!
Way to start looking like a real baseball town, DC. You’re getting really into this. I like the enthusiasm. Keep it up.

I am going to have to say Stasburg, It is amazing what his 100-mile an hour fastball and a full repertoire of pitches can do for ticket sales. I could not see him when he played the Mud Hens. But, I will definitely look for him in the majors.
