Coming to a stadium near you

Clayton Kershaw, get used to hearing the name. The 20 year old left handed starter will likely make his major league debut this Sunday earning his first career outing against St. Louis. As far as pitching prospects go, he is simply the best. He combines a 97 MPH with a 84 MPH change up, both of which he can throw for strikes on command. Oh yeah, and he also has what scouts call the best curveball in the world (no seriously…in the world).


While pitching prospects are never a sure thing, it should be fun to watch this kid develop, even if he isn’t in a Nationals uniform.
