Mark your calendars, Stephen Strasburg will make his major league debut June 8th, according to MLB.com's Bill Ladson (via Twitter). The right-hander will test his stuff against a major league offense for the first time in Washington next Tuesday against the Pirates.
The Nationals put off the top draft pick's debut long enough for him to dominate the upper minors and eliminate the chance that he goes to arbitration four times. Strasburg will not pick up more than 118 days of service time this year, so he will not be a super two after 2012.
