3-4. there is no competition for him for NL ROY. as long as he stays with the big league club, he has it in the bag
Depends on if Lance Lynn keeps winning.5-0 already.
I saw last night his throw home from LF was clocked at 84 MPH. Wow.
i don't think he's a rookie
mlb.com has him listed in the Rookies stats section.
125 is the cutoff I believe.
Harper, 19, runs to first base like Pete Rose. He throws like outfielders used to throw. On Monday, his first day in Washington, he even took a few swings in a pickup softball game near the Washington Monument, evoking Willie Mays playing stickball in the streets of New York.And the Nationals might send him back to Triple A? Are you kidding me?There are a lot of people who need to be shipped out of Washington. Harper should not be on the list.
from rosenthal couple of days ago...yeah there are a couple guys who shouldn't be on this roster.
But Ian Desmond certainly deserves to be on this roster
Nady, Tracy, Ankiel, DeRosa are all guys just playing out the last year(s) of their careers
last year, no. this year, yeah.i don't know what you're getting at
There's been alot of criticism on this board toward Desmond. Like in any other profession, a little experience goes a long way. Desmond is a better ballplayer this year and even excluding last night, he has shown that this season
Can't breath. Dying from laughter.
Harper is going to get some competition from pitchers - Wade Miley, Drew Pomeranz come to mind (still one of the biggest trade steals of all time IMHO). Cozart and Nieuwenhuis are off to good starts as well.
