Congrats - the Nats are going to host the 2018 All Star Game.  That's a great weekend.  I may even come out for it....

No promises.  My last two trips to DC have been plagued with travel woes....

I was hoping for a little more in this Strasburg / Harvey duel.

real ugly loss today.

i don't think danny espinosa has any business on any MLB roster, nevermind the clubhouse that is favored to win the world series.

Danny Espinosa hasn't been good for a couple seasons now and it's super disappointing. The chemistry him and Desi have on the defensive side is awesome. Too bad he just stacks up strikeouts. We'll see if he can get it going without being a switch hitter.

Nats desperately need Span/Rendon/Werth back. Although if they can eek out some wins it'll be fine.

You'd figure Harper could carry the team.....he's the best.

Of the four big American pro sports, baseball is by far the one where an "elite" player can "carry" his team the least.

yeah, the guys playing now have to hit more, regardless.  des, uggla and ramos look awful, espinosa is an automatic out when he plays, michael taylor needs to get sent down to single A to learn how to play the game of baseball, and zimmerman appears to have a long way to go before he provides any sort of sound defense at 1B.  the season isn't won in april but shit, they could end up fighting for a wild card spot if they continue to have an ugly april.

Michael Taylor was awesome in his handful of games last year. I think he can be as consistent as Rendon once he gets the fulltime call up. Desi is notoriously slow to start on both sides of the ball. It's so friggin weird. He should start spring training in December to get hot by the season start. I also think Ramos hits better with RISP, but no one can seem to get on base for him. I think they'll come around. Werth in the line-up today should help boost the top of the order. I'm surprised Tyler Moore hasn't been given more of a chance.

Probably a better chance of Harper striking out than me falling down the stairs.... what's he on pace for anyways?
