Roger Bernadina not listed on #Nats clubhouse lineup card. Could have been sent down or traded to make room for Wang.

No way they sent Roger down. Has to be something else

They have a ton of outfielders, Rizzo isn't a nyan, and Wang needs a roster spot. The other choice would be someone like Detwiler.

That would make more sense. Roger has played decent and is much better than Ankiel, etc. Why would you demote someone you are trying to trade/showcase?

Unless they traded for a real CFer there is no reason to send him to AAA.

I like Sportsfan, he's a die hard Nats fan, cares passionately about the team. He's just got sloppy impulse control. Posts things the SECOND they pop into his head. I suspect he'll grow out of that.

It's a little annoying, but he's a really smart kid and this board wouldn't be the same without him.

I have this theory that Sportsfan is 10 years old.

It could still be a trade. Gorzo to the pen and Detwiler to AAA could happen after the game.

This makes no sense. How is Bernadina less valuable than Ankiel/Cora/Detwiler?

RD · « **Reply #786 on:** July 29, 2011, 03:46:50 pm »

So he's got to be down for a bit then right? So our best CF option is now in the minors, just to clear a spot for Wang?

A move is definitely on the horizon.

Makes sense, he's now the 5th outfielder. They couldn't send any other outfielder on the 25-man down.

More valuable, that's why they used his option.

JMW IV · « **Reply #789 on:** July 29, 2011, 03:48:14 pm »

if this is only to make room for wang then stupid rizzo is stupid.

TylerDC · « **Reply #790 on:** July 29, 2011, 03:51:10 pm »

If he has options, I get it, I guess..

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #791 on:** July 29, 2011, 03:53:38 pm »

Wow that's dumb as crap. Bernadina has been one of our better players.

Rick Ankiel and Alex Cora get to stay?

Ankiel & Cora don't have any options. Sending Detwiler down and moving Gorzelanny to the pen would make sense, but I think they need all they pitchers they can get at this point.

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #793 on:** July 29, 2011, 03:54:55 pm »

Wow that's horrible. Now Rick Ankiel is bating lead-off. Unreal, Rizzo gets dumber by the day

10 day minimum unless there is an injury.

Did anyone see this happening?

I feel that Rizzo ain't done movin'

rizzo, slave to the option.

Better or worse than being a slave to the grind?

Gorzelanny is on stand by if Wang does crappy tonight and next two starts. I suggested a 13 man pitching staff several days ago but never envisioned Bernadina being sent down. Gones trade replaced Stairs instead of Wang taking his spot.

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #798 on:** July 29, 2011, 04:02:10 pm »

What will make it even worse is when we are down 6-0 in the third inning tonight. Wang isn't a ML pitcher

Roger Bernadina is not listed on the Nats' lineup card at all. Possibly an oversight, but compelling given the time of year.

Well there is your proof RaJa has been traded for Josh Hamilton
