Just when you think you know everything about Stephen Strasburg, there’s this little nugget: he spreads Icy Hot on his toast every morning.
He also wasn’t really good until a radioactive spider bit him, and he got three of his 14 strikeouts Tuesday night while Twittering.
You would have learned these tidbits if you watched "The Late Show with David Letterman" Thursday night. The Nationals’ new superstar helped deliver the night’s Top Ten list.
Of course, these items aren’t true, but they do speak to the rockstar status Strasburg has obtained in his short time as a Major League pitcher.
Want some more evidence that Stephen Strasburg is not your ordinary prospect? The Nationals just sent the hat he wore Tuesday night as well as a game ball to the National Baseball Hall of Fame.
Not bad for a guy with one Major League start under his belt!
