I'm moving this to GDT section.  Chief can archive last season when he wants to.  I think the thinking was folks wanted last year to look at for a while so he held off archiving.

We are here, but 60 games makes the season incomplete.

Whatever.

Lets Go?

Lineup tonight.

Turner - SS
Eaton - RF
Castro - 2B
Kendrick - DH
Thames - 1B
Suzuki - C
Cabrera - 3B
Stevenson - LF
Robles - CF

Hate to be dreary, but when you take Soto out then this team better be darn good at pitching and defense because gross. That is rough. Starlin Castro in the 3 hole on opening day feels like Odalis Perez as opening day starter in 2008.

At least the lineup is deep even if not powerful in the middle.

Why in the world are we not starting Kieboom?   Cabrera can’t move at all.   Let the kid play.

any reason for no Soto other than yikes he's not ready for Cole?

By the way, I like Stevenson some.  he can hit and he can field at least enough to play a corner if not everyday in CF.

Kieboom still looks lost at the plate, especially against breaking stuff.

So with Soto testing positive...what about the Washington, D.C., rule mandating that anyone coming into contact with someone who had the coronavirus needs to self-quarantine for 14 days.

IIRC the team got a waiver to that rule or they wouldn't have been able to play in D.C. at all.

I thought there would be a MASN pre game show or something for this.   I was so excited to have MASN finally, and nothing?

This 60 game season will end with whatever team is still standing winning.
So freakin' stupid.
I'm gonna be so pissed if Soto can't fully recover from this virus. Only the most important offensive player on the squad.
[somebody] bungled this pandemic so badly it defies logic.
That's why we can't have nice things.
Like Juan Soto in our lineup on Opening day.

Too bad they did not let us see the full player introductions.  Hope they come back with showing the  Nats starters.  Did they do the ring ceremony already?
