#Nats top OF prospect Michael Taylor was a late scratch for Syracuse tonight. Appears to be coming to Atlanta to make MLB debut tomorrow.

Souza injured?

Souza injured?

Both Souza and Werth are injured.

Unclear whether Taylor will be replacing Werth or Souza on the roster, but #Nats desperate for healthy outfielders right now.

Super that he's coming but a bummer for the reason.   I'm glad they're playing a night game tomorrow.   Gives me time to get 18 in and see how he does.

[mmzznnxx]

Good, he can get his first taste of big-league losing.

[Slateman]

For God's sake, let him start

freak. I'm excited he's coming up but we need Werth.

You know, honestly, we ain't winning this series. So who gives a freak. Play Taylor, see what he can do. Let him experience big league pitching so he knows what to work on

[imref]

It has o be Souza. He's less valuable and so he can go on the dl or to syracuse to heal there.

[cmdterps44]

I'm all for letting Taylor start. I just want to know if Werth is alright.

Losing Werth would be scary for our chances and our depth. That said, let's get freaked up and celebrate Michael Taylor

[houston-nat]

Dangit, I come home and see "Michael Taylor is promoted" and did NOT want to see that Werth and Souza are both injured.

[Slateman]

If he gets here tonight,  he can start

Demotion followed by DL = grievance

Sucks to be Tyler Moore right now.

Should have hit the freaking ball when he had the chance

Exactly.  He has been up and down at least the last two years, if not more, I believe.  Make due with your chances.

Let's be fair. He's mainly a 1B. We need an OF.

We need a third baseman

Taylor will be no use off the bench. This must mean Werth is toast.

I don't think Taylor is ready for Big League pitching yet either. gulp

Noted: Nats tapped Taylor, just promoted from AA, and not Goodwin, Eury Perez, or Hood.
