Florida has won 17 of their last 20 games vs the Nationals. They are also 7-1 when playing at Nationals Park.

But they haven't won there today.

Fish Sticks
Maybin - CF
Baker - C
Ramirez - SS
Cantu - 1B
Uggla - 2B
Hermida - LF
Ross - RF
Helms - 3B
Nolasco - RHP

GOOD GUYS
Hernandez - 2B
Johnson - 1B
Zimmerman - 3B
Dunn - RF
Dukes - CF
Willingham - LF
Flores - C
Gonzalez - SS
Lannan - LHP

Like our line-up obviously would love to see Guzman out there leading off, but it's nice we get to see Gonzalez get some more PT.  Flores better start hitting he's been pathetic and he's getting some good pitches to hit.  Let's go Johnny Be Good!  Be the better man.

glad Willingham is starting in place of Kearns. good to see. It's up to Lannan to produce a quality outing for us to win this one.

No EB!

Johnson still in that #2 spot. Gives me shivers of happiness.

EDIT: A new tattoo and new six-pack of Guinness puts me in a good mood. I have good feelings about tonight. But you know, the Guinness-- just in case.  ;) :D

Off the the FAU game.  I'm going to miss this entire series.

I hope you all enjoy the games, just not too much. ;)

I'm loving the lineup.  This *should* be one of the most productive units we have put out there.  Each pitcher that faces the Dunn-Dukes-Willingham portion of the lineup will most likely have to throw at least 15-20 pitches just for those three guys AND will have to worry about the fact that all three of them could take the pitcher yard on a slip up.  I am sure now that I have said this it will backfire on me, but theoretically it should be a very tough portion to get through.

Johnson on down to Willingham is a murderer's row.

That would be gravy. Three of those five are on my fantasy team. :)

Hey, me too!  And Lannan.  I benched Uggla becaue I'm expecting Lannan to have a big game and I don't want him dragging me down today.

I used to have Lannan on mine, but some better options became available and I had to part with him, plus he wasn't helping my team that much. He hasn't been picked up yet either so if I feel the need, I could probably always get him again.

I have a feeling that Lannan comes out strong tonite, while the offense continues to roll.

We get win #2:
Nats 7
Stinkin' Fish 3

I second this. I think Willingham is gonna eventually take Kearns job, so it might as well start today.

The only Nat that I have on mine is Dunn. I drafted Zim in each of the past two years, but I got tired of getting burned. You can only wait so long for that breakout year.

My thoughts exactly, but I decided to give him one more chance. He looks like he is beginning to pull his weight, but we all know how that worked out in previous years. :?

I took him late stocked up a few other positions and he was still sitting there so I took him.  Got Dukes and NJ off the scrap heap too.  Hopefully they'll be nice little steals for the season.

My fantasy team includes Nolasco, Uggla, and Cantu from Florida, and Guzman and now Dukes from Washington.  Zimmerman's low BA can hurt a fantasy team.  In addition to Cantu, I have Chipper Jone$, Aubrey Huff, & Melvin Mora (DL) qualified for 3rd base, and I recently dropped Mike Lowell from there.  So I had 5 for 3B not named Zimmerman, who should not be batting 3rd.

I'm not hopeful for Lannan, as long as Randy Claire is the pitching coach.  Since he can't throw it over 90 mph, he needs a fair umpire.  Lannan walked far too many batters in the 2nd half of 2008.

LMFAO...Bonofacio is 0 for his last 10. Remember how some people were freaking out after that first series against the fish about EB?

I have no problems, my feed is 100 times better than last year.  It isn't HD, but it good.
