The Nationals Are Coming, The Nationals Are Coming...
The "woeful" Nationals, the "lowly" Nationals, the "traveling circus", or how about, as NY Post writer Kevin Kiernan calls them this morning in an article entitled, "Time To Turn Flushing Into Fat Citi", "the doormat Nationals". Mr. Kiernan writes, in a preview of the three-game series that starts tonight in Citi Field between the NL East's third-place NY Mets and the 5th place Washington Nationals, that the Mets, "...believe they are beginning to gain that long-lost edge they've been searching for," and what better opponent to regain that edge against, right?
The Mets took two of three from DC when the teams, uh, met, sorry, in Citi Field earlier this season, but two of the three wins came with Scott Olsen and Daniel Cabrera on the mound for Washington, and the one Nationals' win came courtesy of Jordan Zimmermann, who'll start Wednesday's finale, with John Lannan going tonight and Ohio's favorite son, Craig Stammen to pitch tomorrow.
New York returns to Citi Field following a 10-game road trip through San Francisco, LA and Boston which saw them take three-straight from San Francisco before dropping the finale to the Giants and all three to the Dodgers in Los Angeles. The Mets rebounded to take two of three from Boston in Fenway Park and finish the trip 5-5. The Nationals head out on the road having just completed an 11-game homestand which saw them go 2-9, losing seven-straight, four to Philly and three to Pittsburgh, before taking the finale from the Pirates and the third of three from the Baltimore Orioles.

Yes
And that might be the only time the ballpark sells out this year…

First paragraph of Ladson's story at 7:00 tonight...
WASHINGTON — Right-hander Daniel Cabrera hasn’t pitched since he was taken out of the rotation last week, and it could be a while before he sees any action. The last time Cabrera pitched was on May 16, against the Phillies.

Keep Manny !!! fire the bat boy, he's bad luck and I don't believe in luck...

I go back and forth too. Manny makes some bonehead decisions, but the team hasn't quit on him. If the team quits...then it's a gots to go situation.

Agree. That was a panic move by the front office.

I think of it more like a Pollock move...
…throw a poop load of paint at a canvas and walla instant masterpiece…and I know the arts history majors will think differently but come on this so parallels the Rizzo thinking process. Throw everything at the wall and something will stick or stink…

That would bring guys to the ball park and come to think of it so would ... 6-8pm happy hour..
at the park… and than buy a big disco ball and turn the first and third base paths into bowling alleys and have singles night after games…yea, I thought that one though to much…I’ll keep it in my head next time. It sounds better there…

I'm outta here folks. I'll be watching for hopeful DFA news tomorrow.

DC is DFA. A sad day for DC baseball
I still think he was a fair gamble. Although it did not work
