Nationals @ Astros, Game 2

[PANatsFan]

Reynolds must have worked his ass off this offseason. Dude's like a totally different third baseman.

He played 1st last year, didn't he? He sure can hit. I'd like for the Nats to pick him up.

[Potomac Cannons]

Zimm is the best offensive 3rd baseman in the NL too, so that enters players minds when voting. Gold Gloves don't always go to those that are most deserving.

::cough::  Nate McLouth  ::cough::

Does Greyhound have coach seating?   

*shudder* I don't know what first class is. Farthest from the bathroom, I think.

[PANatsFan]

Batista's up throwing and we are all throwing up.

[NatsTheFats]

Why is the AstroDome still standing?  Is it still being used?

Apparently the city still owes nearly 30 million dollars in debt and interest payments. 

I don't think it is being used for much of anything right now.

Mark Reynolds? He plays 3b and fills in 1b every now and then.

Well, we can start Hammer, Roger, Dunn in the OF, put Reynolds at 1st, and pray to hit enough homers to overcome the defense.

Yep 24 starts at 1B last year and 4 shifts over to 1B this year.

Harris County officials should by Powerball/MegaMillions tickets.

They're making all of the defensive plays.  That's not good.

Harris County officials should by Powerball/MegaMillions tickets. 

That's a pretty rough neighborhood nowadays, too.

[The Chief]

I have a feeling that Desmond is going to be "- Desmond" by the end of this road trip.

no chance!

bob is ripping bernadina ... that pitch looked low though.

[natsfan4evr]

i guess the nationals offence is sleeping today. and have scored all their runs for the week. just like what happened in colorado

When did all of you come out of the woodwork?
It's only the 4th inning. Do you expect them to score every game and every inning? Even the best teams get shutout several times a season (i.e. Phillies)

[PC]

Stammen has a very difficult time consistently throwing strikes.

[PC]

Has Stammen given us a chance to win?  Is this a "quality start"?  Not a quality start, a "quality start".

[esoteric]

Stammen has not pitched poorly since the first inning.  I hope you people realize that he is significantly better than his numbers indicate.

[natsfan4evr]

Has Stammen given us a chance to win?

This team can overcome a 4 run deficit against the Astros in that bandbox...no doubt about it

[PC]

Why are his first innings so often terrible?
