Nationals @ Mets, Game 2

[HalfSmokes]

If this is 2012 LaRoche, he belongs at 4- there really are no weak links- I like the lineup

[skippy1999]

Don't really care about the batting order as long as the best available players are in it. They're all good players.

Agreed.

Yes. I agree with that. I guess time will tell.

[Jordanz Meatballz]

The power of beard is what gets you in the 3 and 4 slots of Matt Williams' lineups.

[Baseball is Life]

Starting with a SH and then alternating lefty righty through the whole lineup until he gets to a SH at 8, right?

[JMW IV]

I'll actually be going out to a bar to watch this one.

i never go out anywhere that isn't work.

should be fun...ish.

i may or may not check in with you guys at some point during the game.

[Slateman]

Why is Harper batting 6th?

Because his swing is all jacked up and until he gets it fixed, he shouldn't hit higher.

Cox in Fairfax County doesn't have the Nats game listed in its lineup again. Not exactly DVR friendly.

I've come to the conclusion that both Cox and FIOS suck donkey dick

It's not listed on 1074?

[pk4yahweh]

Bummer about Ramos... Looking for another curly W tonight!

[pazzo83]

Weather here was chilly all day, but sun just came out so now we're in the mid 50s.

No, and neither was Opening Day, though it aired on 1074. I assume it will be on. It's just not on the schedule and not conducive for recording. I like to record the game and sit down to watch around 8:30 or so after dinner. I go through the commercials and other dead time and sometimes catch up before the game is over! Saves time.

Mattie was quoted as saying that he wants him to be free to play his game, meaning steal bases, go for the extra base, etc.

But you're probably right.

I like Harper down in the order a bit. Takes pressure of him. I think sometimes he presses a bit.

[Slateman]

Need to get to Colon early.

[lastobjective]

I'm SO READY!!!!!!!  Let's go Gio, let's go Nats!

[mitlen]

Need to get to Colon early.

I often wonder who cuts his hair?    Odd lookin' haircut, not that I should talk about haircuts.      Maybe it's the big head and the small hat.

[houston-nat]

I can't believe that it's 2014 and I'm watching Bartolo Colon play baseball.

[lastobjective]

Attendance is depressing, wow.

[skippy1999]

My gosh it's empty there!

[houston-nat]

I can't believe that it's 2014 and I'm watching Bartolo Colon play baseball.

He looks like a South Side San Antonio used car salesman.

Attendance is depressing, wow.

Right? That's sad

Ha disagree, I helped my son buy a used 2 years ago when he moved there and his salesman was gorgeous

[lastobjective]

Yeah, no ballpark should be that empty I would totally be happy to take an empty seat behind the plate!
