Nationals @ Tigers, Game 1

[tomterp]

Now that's a good inning!   

[GburgNatsFan]

Good Pudge! You get to catch Strasburg Friday!

[natsfan4evr]

His main problem is that it is always flashes. He's a feast or famine type player. We need consistent production.

I wonder if the broken hand has had an effect on his play. That's still no excuse for his piss poor defense, but might explain why he's been caught stealing so much. Hopefully it was just a sophomore slump he was in.

I like the babe in the sunglasses behind the Nats' dugout.

Now that's a good inning!   

Willingham and RodriguEZ bailed us out. 

[GburgNatsFan]

I wonder if now he has to start learning how to read pitchers. For a while, you can get by on raw speed...

Let's go Lannan,   time to shut 'em down.

Yup.  My standards are pretty low, too.  A 2 run inning is a good one.

3rd   J Willingham singled to right center, N Morgan scored, A Dunn to third.   2   1
3rd   I Rodriguez singled to center, A Dunn scored, J Willingham to second.   3   1

Lannan would mess up a wet dream.

[GburgNatsFan]

The Hammer is not fast. Boy needs to do some yoga or something to loosen up those hammies.

[PC]

Lannan can't keep people off base. 

[mitlen]

Pudge waved at that   

[natsfan4evr]

Awful play!

[PC]

Where are the groundball outs from Lannan?

... down the left field line.

[nats2playoffs]

I am not completely onboard yet. But I am getting there.... 

JMad, you need to take back your WNFF Fantasy team.  It's got 3 players on the DL, including Nick Johnson on the 60-day DL as a starter.  There's a bench player who could be active in his spot.  It doesn't take that much time to try to have active players being played.

A 12-team league makes sense, if 2 become quitters, so there's 10 actively managed.

good thought by Morse. Not a great throw and pudge probably wasn't expecting it. I doubt lannan would have covered 1B properly.

I was under the impression that someone took the team over for me.

is it yahoo baseball, or espn?

[mitlen]

Lannan is our best BP pitcher.

[mitlen]

3rd inning, 3rd time through the order, 3rd time through a 6 pack.

[GburgNatsFan]

Once you see Strasburg, it's difficult to be satisfied with marginal pitchers, isn't it?

Ain't it great to be spoiled?

[JMW IV]

n2p or whoever is running the fantasy league, send me an email invite to take my team back over and I'll do it. I thought you gave the team to someone else.

Good to see that flukes can't last forever.  Move Lannan down the line for an actual MLB player.
