Going to see the Nats play at PNC this Saturday!  Wearing my O's hat, but I'll be cheering for the Nats...

it seems like half the team stopped taking PEDs.

but seriously, i don't know. he's never been a career clean-up hitter, last year was a bit of an anomaly.  but something definitely seems strange.

In his career (750+ at bats), LaRoche is a .212/.305/.389 hitter in April. (And only slightly better in May.) Last year was the year to ask "what's going on?" not this year.

Barves fans and Rangers fans were pretty salty last night.

Caps and Nats win 3-1? I like this. I didn't watch the game last night due to Caps] but we were flipping back and forth during intermission and commercial breaks. Glad Dan Haren made it 8 innings!

Haren looked exceptional, and Soriano is really fitting in nice as closer.

laroche looked on last night.  his double was a laser, and just missed being a HR by maybe 2 ft. 

once this offense gets going (last april they were slow, too), they are going to be dangerous. denard span addition makes this line-up insanely dangerous.

also, a plus of laroche's slump - desmond in the 5 spot, where he belongs IMO.

I have had such a fun time watching Denard Span in a Nats uniform. That dude is an on base MACHINE! He's also awesome in center field. Just hope the bats heat up and everyone gets healthy and back in the line-up.

Also looks like Rendon is headed back to Double A ball.

yep. the biggest stat brought up with the morse/span trade was WAR, which span had a significant upside compared to morse.  it's already showing - we dont win last night w/o span.

If tonight gets rained out, will there be a double header tomorrow? Are they also going to be screwing everyone out of their money if they can't make the make-up games? lol

I got tickets for Friday against the Cubbies and rains in the forecast...

'According to the team, season ticket holders who had tickets for Tuesday?s game will automatically have their card activated for Thursday?s game.

There will be no refunds or exchanges for later games, which represents departure in team policy that a Nationals spokesperson attributed to ?higher demand and less capacity.?'

Bullshit move Nats.

The PR office was clearly not consulted by the ticket office when the first announcement went out, then they took over quickly.
