Not me. Since he signed an MLB contract and has pitched college, I'd put him in the majors right away. I want a young stud pitcher in there as young as possible because pitching is at a premium and I want him getting outs at the major league level, not the minors. Rushing thru the system didn't hurt Porcello who in two years went from high school to the majors and won 15 games as a 20 yr old and pitched the best game as a major leaguer in that one game playoff vs the Twins.

Strasburg did his time in college. Time to take off the training wheels and let him earn his contract.
