Nationals (64-57)

John Patterson, RHP (7-3, 2.44)

Patterson is looking to win his fourth consecutive decision as he faces New York for the third time this season. Patterson has yet to pick up a decision against the Mets, but he has given up five runs in 12 innings against them. In his last start, Patterson pitched eight solid innings, giving up one run on nine hits as the Nationals pounded the Rockies, 9-2.

Mets (61-59)

Jae Seo, RHP (4-1, 1.35)

Friday's start offers Seo an opportunity to enact a measure of revenge at the club responsible for the lone blemish on his spectacular -- albeit limited -- 2005 Major League resume. The Nationals handed Seo a loss on April 29, tagging him for three runs on three hits over five innings. He was stellar in his subsequent outing before being shipped to Triple-A. And he picked up where he left off since returning to the Mets on Aug. 6, allowing just one run on nine hits over 15 1/3 innings in victories over the Cubs and Dodgers.

There is a storm cell moving East towards NYC. Expect a rain delay either before or during the game...but I don't predict a postponement.

This is another must-win series.

Looks like they're not very afraid of Guillen. I hope he makes them pay for it.

The Chief · « **Reply #4:** August 19, 2005, 07:25:46 PM »

Somebody needs to get out there and calm Patterson down

You know it's tense when we break out the big letters on a first inning strikeout

We need to get Seo pitch count up.

Speaking of streaks, does anyone know when the last time Wilkerson DID NOT strike out in a game was?

Jerspos · « **Reply #12:** August 19, 2005, 07:38:50 PM »

swing the bat vinny just put the freaking thing in play on the ground I could do it

luckyexposfan · « **Reply #13:** August 19, 2005, 07:41:15 PM »

Well that's one way to get Castilla out of the way without giving an out.

Ryan Zimmerman · « **Reply #14:** August 19, 2005, 07:42:34 PM »

What are your guys thoughts on Wilson? Do you think, he was a good acquisition? I think, he isn't the big bat we were lookin but he's decent.

BTW, the phillies are trailing 4-0 and guess who homered? Pitcher Kip Wells!!

Common Carroll.Ugh he struck out.Now Patterson.

Jerspos · « **Reply #15:** August 19, 2005, 07:43:31 PM »

Wilson is good no sense in complaining now

stupid freaking wasted chances piss me off freak

PC · « **Reply #16:** August 19, 2005, 07:43:35 PM »

I hope that wasn't the turning point in this game.

Common Carroll.

He's been decent lately, but I don't know if I'd go so far as giving him a general "decent". I'm not making my mind up on him until season's over, but by then he will be gone, so it won't matter.

WHY WILL HE BE GONE BEFORE THEN

I swear Preston Wilson needs to go back to the equipment manager and request a new size for his caps & helmets.

esoteric · « **Reply #21:** August 19, 2005, 07:52:41 PM »

ATTN: Phailers are down 4-1 against the Pirates in the top of the 3rd.

why?

PC · « **Reply #23:** August 19, 2005, 07:56:31 PM »

By the time you go through your entire batting order, you should have at least one run.

We don't.

...of course, they don't either.

You mean you haven't seen everytime he runs hard he loses his cover?
