I must be one picky Nats fan, because after reading that, all I end up doing, is wonder why if JP is back, did he leave before the media arrived?
Patterson has always been very accessible to the media, so it does seem a little strange. However, perhaps he has read/heard some of the mean-spirited things that have been written about him the past few months and wants to avoid the fickle writers as long as possible. Or possibly, he just had some more pressing engagements.
