Let's hope it's only for another couple of days and not a DL60 situation.

Typically when they feel something and get re-evaluated that is a terrible sign.

I'd say most likely scenario is a shut down for two weeks and then try baseball activities again.

I agree. We'll just have to wait and see. I didn't think he was getting re-evaluated, just getting some more treatment.

yup he's not get re-evaluated.  he's just getting treatment.  you don't want to push it.  he played in his first game action for back-to-back days in a while.  this is pretty much his spring training.  it's good he has a day off and to get some treatment.

to celebrate the civil war sesquicentennial, the Nats are sending Micheal Morse to a doctor who will reenact battlefield surgery from the time of Shiloh.

I think I've read this before from the Nats. Last year, LaRoche was fine, with minor pain when he threw, but no, it wouldn't harm his hitting. Zimmerman was returning "next week", every week. Nix just needed a day or two to "rest" a partially torn achilles. Back a few years, and Shawn Hill was coming along fine until they dropped him, and John  Patterson was not really hurt, although I remember watching one of his last starts, and wondering at the "89" on the RFK speed sign. In fact, I don't remember a serious injury to anyone except for Nick Johnson's broken leg.

I wonder: will Bryce Harper be in the Nats lineup before Morse?

"Feeling something" and going to New York for treatment NEVER ends well for the Nationals.

This is precisely why I didn't make any predictions because I fully expected every player currently injured is much more severely injured than we've been led to believe, most importantly Morse and Storen.

In terms of cartoons, is there a clothed division and an Bloo division?

Haha. I guess they'd be in my division since animals don't wear any clothes.

zuck said he's coming off DL on tuesday

maybe i'm misunderstanding how this works, but it hasn't been close to 15 days since the start of the season... or was the japan series the start of the season, and you could DL players after that?

You could backdate the DL stint to the last time they played in ST.

I saw that Ankiel hit another homer in the minors last night.  Morse did not play - something about going to get extra treatment for his injury. 

I think Brett Carroll is getting sent down once Ankiel comes up.  I'm not sure who will be sent down when Morse is back.  Maybe Nady?

I don't think he does.

Also - when Storen comes back, it looks like Stammen might be the odd man out.  I trust Stammen more than Gorzelanny in long relief, but I think Davey likes having both.  So maybe Mattheus goes?

From what I've read Bernie and Lombo are likely gone when Morse/LaRoche returns.

Lombo because he's the only guy with options, and Bernadina because it doesn't make sense to have two left handed CF'ers.
