Im sorry, but no prospect should be compared to Broxton.. its like comparing someone to Mariano Rivera, these guys have dominated their positions and are some of the best at what they do… comparing a 22 year old to them is very premature.
*I know you were using Broxton because A. They are both closers with good peripherals, and B. Broxton just signed his deal, just saying that comparing them at Storen’s stage of his career is premature

Didn’t you just compare Broxton to Mariano, though?

No, or at least I didn’t mean for it to sound that way. I was saying that comparing him to one of the best in the NL is premature. Same for doing it with any closer and someone like Mo. While broxton is trying to earn the title as one of the best, no one is on the level of Mo when you consider age and level of dominance.

Have the Nats really done due diligence here on trying to see if Storen can start? He’s been fantastic as a reliever, but I’d have to think he’d be more valueable to them as a starting pticher even if that means taking a little longer to build up his arm strength.

He was a reliever throughout his college career, he was only selected so high because the Nats knew they’d be able to sign him and with the Strasburg pick they had to get someone with signability, so they chose their future closer.
