Is this about Zimmerman being on PI drugs.  Didn't know that was an issue. Sounds like hateful gossip.

It's hateful gossip. He was associated in an ancillary way in an al jazeera story. He ended up suing them, and they're a terrorist mouthpiece anyway. :|

That is an awful story.  Looks like baseball players have to put up with the same gossip as political figures.

I don't know what Tanner did over the All-Star break, but I hope it sticks. He looks like an entirely different pitcher since then.

Where was this team last game? I guess they needed yesterday's screw ups to wake the f**k up.

He made the mistake of getting a crewcut and shaving his beard. Like Samson he lost it. But now that he’s growing everything back he’s coming back.

Some members on here have been writing Zim's funeral for months now skill-wise. I get he's had trouble staying healthy but when healthy the guy can still mash with the best of them.

Zim just keeps adding to his longterm stats with the Nats.  Going to be 1st in a lot of statistics for a long time.

No, FP!! No mumbling about "to turn this thing around". This "thing" is just fine whenever the Nats win. Not likely to win the division, but that's surely NOT why I root for the Nats. Stop cheerleading.
