#Nationals’ Dan Haren is 0-4 with a 5.54 ERA in seven career starts vs. #Phillies – the only #MLB team he’s yet to beat.

I sense a theme...

That serif font hurt to read. Come back to me, sweet Helvetica, Arial...

Why is Span starting and leading off against a left handed pitcher?

LaRoche is 0/15 against Lannan and was initially out of the lineup. Davey can be talked into anything. He owns hundreds of acres of ocean front property... in Montana.

...and the National League owns him...

Had to change your font...it is painful...

I think Bryce should be hitting 4th. Werth gets on. Make other teams throw him something over the plate.

Pretty sparse crowd so far. Probably keeping with the "silent" theme.

in the chase or not
these are the hated phillies
get 'em Dan Haren

Slateman · « **Reply #11:** August 09, 2013, 07:07:46 PM »

Starting Haren and Lannan in fantasy. Expecting an offensive explosion now that I have no Nationals players on my team.

Though someone offered my Ian Desmond and AJ Perziski for Buster Posey

I see not many people have stuck around after the funeral.

Slateman · « **Reply #13:** August 09, 2013, 07:15:17 PM »

Span is now 0 for 18

Slateman · « **Reply #14:** August 09, 2013, 07:15:50 PM »

Yes, please start Span against a lefty. Great idea Davey!!!

It's not oddly Bob. Lannan is precisely the kind of pitcher Ian Desmond has little chance against.

Time to strand the bases loaded

And the right man is up for it.

nats2playoffs · « **Reply #20:** August 09, 2013, 07:24:40 PM »

Bases loaded for Adam LaRoche, 2 outs, who is 0 for 15 vs Lannan

Flyball coming up.

Harper grounded out in between walks.
