That means both Stephen Strasburg and Mr. Ross are going to be in the rotation starting this weekend. Hallelujah! I was incredibly sad to see the amazing Ross Train reach its final destination, but I now have even more emotion that the party will continue for the foreseeable future. If he is somehow still available on your waiver wire, you best be snatching that up ASAP and plugging him in for all but the very worst matchups here on out. The guy is a beast, seriously.
