I'm not convinced we had a healthy Zimmerman.

I'm not convinced he's ever getting any healthier

It's too bad, but I agree with you.

I wonder if he can practice his sidearm throw without using his thumb.

Pujols is 3 homers short of 500. Don't let him get 500 here.

With our history it's bound to happen at Nats Park.

Yes it is. Pujols hit another homer today. Now sitting at 498 with one game to go before he comes to DC. :?

On the 11 game homestand...

I don't care if we sweep the Angels and Padres; if we lose to the Cardinals tomorrow I'd have a hard time saying that this was a successful homestand.

Something else...Matt Williams being strung up by the balls but I'd settle for him being burned in effigy.

I hear you but an 8-3 homestand would be nice.

All in all, it was a very sloppy series for both teams.

Since we have re-gifted some too, it fits the idea of being random
