Anyone know where I can get a team icon that uses the instead of the Nationals logo?

[Lintyfresh85]

Would love to win this one for the sweep.

I hear that, this team needs a sweep so we can keep riding high. I think Livan gives us a good chance at that tonight, the guy deserves another

Imagine ... SS to Livan in a series.    Institutionalize the Buccos.

[CJames0569]

I really wish they would pitch back to back days, imagine that adjustment. I also couldn't imagine facing Livan's junk for 7 innings, finally getting his timing down, then having to face Storen and Capps in the 8th and 9th.

I also move to make Milledge official nickname "The Pouting Knob"

[Section214]

Want a sweep so so bad. We should sweep teams this bad and after the Houston debacle we need to.

[CatsEye]

 If we can't win with Livan pitching, then we got problems in DC Baseball Land......I mean these are the Pirates, for pete's sake....

That's what we said aboug Houston too...

For those going tonight: expect another day of near-Strasburg-debut quality as far as weather is concerned - high 82, low 74, 'clear and dry', 1% chance of rain (per Capital Weather Gang).

Going to tonight's game.  Originally bought the tickets hoping to see Jeezus' second start, but hey I'll take a game at the ballpark anytime.

Very cool avatar - you get an "A" for creativity in my opinion.......

[KnorrForYourMoney]

I should be there as well.  Go Nats!

he did more pouting?

[DPMOmaha]

he did more pouting?

I think it's perpetual.

[bklynnats]

Livan's eyebrows are badass in that picture

My cable box decided to break yesterday (endless reboots that go nowhere), so no TV for me until tomorrow. Lucky for me, tech troubles held off during the Strasburg debut. I would have killed things  

Go !

[Grandstander]

I'll be attending as well.  Ball and chain is off for the evening and much whiskey will be consumed!

[Minty Fresh]

Best of luck on the sweep boys.  I'll be coaching my son's game tonight.

Last Place Milledge just seems to roll right off the tongue.

[Lintyfresh85]

I want to really see what Morse can do in RF.

[Potomac Cannons]

Very nice.  Glad to see Bernie in CF, a potential power bat in RF and the brain fart bipolar man on the bench to think about it.

[Galah]

Sounds like a good night for a sweep, bringing the broom, hope to use it.
Let's go Nats!!!
