willie harris doesn't have trouble with pop-ups anymore ... yeahhhhhhhh.

and hey a nats starting pitcher has gone 3 innings and hasn't given up 6-8 runs ... yeahhhhhhhhh.

k now let's not roll over for a young pitcher again, and hit this guy around a bit ... yeahhhhhhhh.

This lineup, offensively and defensively could really grow on me.  Swap NJ and Willingham as desired.

Personally, I wouldn't mind trading Johnson.  He is a good player, but probably can bring back the most return also if he can stay healthy for a few weeks.  I would much rather have Dunn playing first than anywhere in the OF.

Cabrera's doing fine. I'll take this kind of outing (through 3) every time out. I'm used to him walking 4 or 5 and giving up a bomb or two by the fourth inning. :lol:

Agreed.
definitely. deal him for a high upside young pitcher that is close to or already in the majors.

That's fine, but with what we've got, this is pretty decent.  Harris has done pretty well, save the play at second on the stolen base.  When Hernandez get's back that will be all the better.

yeah, he'll fit right in with that team of convicts and low-lifes. Is Marvin Lewis still the coach there? He's awful.

We say this now...

The game is not over.  What if this becomes a 3-2 loss?

so predictable. they are falling right into Volstad's trap by hitting ground balls. D-crab is going to have to make 2 runs stand up.  :?

Right, the bullpen will have to finish off the game as well, if we can make it that far.

without a doubt, terrible head coach.  he should've stuck to d-coordinator.  some guys just can't cut it as head coach.
