DC Starting Lineup...
- The Guzzzz - SS
- Nick "Two-Spot" Johnson - 1B (who is in trouble with federalbaseball.com)
- THE KIDS CALL HIM ZIM!! - 3B
- The Big Opposite Field - RF
- THE HAMMER - LF
- Ronnie B. - 2B
- J-Max - CF
- Wil "Blocker" Nieves - C
- The Kid They Call Zim(n) - With the 95 mph heat...
The Nationals vs Johan Santana...
In 6 starts and 42.0 IP against the Washington/Montreal franchise, Johan Santana is (5-1) with a 2.36 ERA, a 1.07 WHIP and a .245 BAA the Nationals/Expos, who haven't beaten the Mets' left-handed ace since 2007, when he was still plying his trade for the Twins. Santana's (4-0) against Washington as the Mets' ace, including three wins in 3 stars last season in 1 win already this year in which he held the Nationals to 1 run on 6 hits in 6.0 innings on the mound in NY. I'd say the Nationals are due...it's not like he's going to throw a complete game like Livan or anything, right? And anyway, Washington's throwing Zim(n)...
Jordan Zimmermann vs The Mets...
Jordan Zimmermann's done this already...Back on April 26, in front of 40,023 screaming Mets fans, the Nationals' 23-year-old rookie right-hander took the mound in Citi Field and beat New York, (mostly thanks to Oliver Perez, admittedly), but also because he allowed only 1 run on 6 hits in 5.1 IP, in which he walked 1 and K'd 5 before the Nationals' early '09 bullpen of Mike Hinckley, Garrett Mock and Kip Wells combined for 3.2 scoreless in an 8-1 Nationals' win.
Johan Santana vs the Nationals...
Ronnie Belliard - 4 for 23, .174 AVG, 2 RBI's, 7 K's.
Adam Dunn - 3 for 4, .750 AVG, 1 HR, 1 RBI.
Cristian Guzman - 8 for 14, .571 AVG, 1 2B.
Willie Harris - 1 for 9, .111 AVG, 1 2B.
Nick Johnson - 1 for 11, .091 AVG, 1 HR, 1 RBI.
Austin Kearns - 2 for 12, .167 AVG, 1 2B.
Luke Montz - 0 for 0, .000 AVG, 1 BB.
Josh Willingham - 2 for 8, .250 AVG, 1 2B, 1 HR, 2 RBI's.
Ryan Zimmerman - 5 for 15, .333 AVG, 1 HR, 4 RBI's, 2 BB, 2 K's, .412 OBP.

Let's start this game with the DEAD EYES J-Zimm.
I love the interview in the pregame show….I wish I could face their best players.
Santana is very beatable. He gives up one run every six innings. All we need is a shutout. WooHoo.
I guess no one's watching the Nationals, since there's no way they can beat Johan Santana...

ugh
please no bunting… thats all this teams needs to start doing is giving outs away
not mannys fault... the bullpen has 13 blown saves
he gutted it once already
I'm fully supportive of Manny, but I would've been tossed a few times out of frustation...not that it accomplishes much...

the way i figure it
if he k’s 20 he’ll be out by the 6th and we can work the bullpen
I said earlier that the 7th is the inning, after Johan and before JJ and K-Rod...it's the one window...

on second thought
thats sort of mathematically impossible
but still
k-rod hasnt even pitched that well this year
men on in most of his save chances…. hes gettable like any closer is
Nick Johnson can't catch up to Johan's heater, all hope might be lost...

We just blew another play where they TRIED to give us an out but that was a tough sac bunt to defend.
Carpenter blames Belliard, but Nick was standing on the pitcher’s mound.

…if I were doing that, I’d have logged on when he slammed that grand slam, right?
i was so frustrated with the Nats, i decided to multitask while watching — and actually get other stuff done. Missed you guys, though.

Yep, so are your guys..
.UNC ranked # 4 nationally even after they stunk it up big time against UVA in the semis.
UNC starts Friday against Dartmouth whom they haven’t played since 1961 — or something.

Your Verizon has ESPNU for the Strasburg-UVA game Friday. My Comcast does not...
…hoping a local comcast sportsnet has a deal to show UVA games.
That's weird because Comcast usually carries games by local schools...
…it might be broadcast later.

I thought it was gone because of the way Dunn reacted to it.
I also thought the Nats would get the call because I saw no irrefutable evidence to the contrary of the original call.
The umps may have had a better camera angle. That's all I can think of.
Dunn’s reaction tells me it’s gone. He played it because the ump didn’t signal HR.
Inconclusive...
and no
i personally don’t think the umpires know what the in/out lines are.

As hard as the Umps tried, the Mets couldn’t get more out of their gifted HR/inning.

Hey, Nats fans.
I must concur with you fans; Daniel Murphy did not hit a two-run home run this evening. Such a declaration by the umpire is purely gratuitous. Lucky for my Mets, eh?
P.S. Whenever I watch the MASN feed, I cannot help but notice the ridiculous “defining moments” with , mostly, Northern Virginian fans. Why are two of those mentioned commercials pejorative towards the Mets? Why is it that Washington Nationals fans have this peculiar fixation with the New York Mets in the NL East? Why not disdain the Phillies instead? Why not fixate over the Marlins or Braves, as both clubs are in the bottom of the NL East cellar with you guys? I don’t mean to be smug at all, but geez. Why the obsession?
If my Mets promptly win tonight, and they most likely will, they shall be in first place (as the Phillies’ loss to the Marlins looks imminent).

Thought it was gone on the live play, but the replays were not conclusive enough to overturn the call...not the one's we saw at least...
That one anti-Mets commercial is odd….

Why are two of those mentioned commercials pejorative towards the Mets? Why not disdain the Phillies instead?
Mostly because there aren’t any good “defining moments” against the Phillies, but at least this Nats fans hates the Phillies more.
It’s amazing how many more “Fightin’” fans you see now that they won the World Series.
Bandwagoners, all.
I hate them more most of the time, too—except when a Mets fan starts talking…

Your statement intimated that you were excited about the possibility of the Nationals making a “defining moment.” Hence, the statement that you shouldn’t sweat over it as the likelihood of it happening is quite low.

Something has to be done with replay. Get better feeds. Manny used Carpenters idea of continuance of motion.
…and no other comments from Manny. Come on MASN.
Kearns the Anonymous Juicer? Let the rumours begin!!!
“Look at that guy’s arms,” joked Austin Kearns, motioning to teammate Josh Willingham. “Ask him about the steroids.”
Kearns, turning serious, then said, “I don’t really have a reaction. I don’t know who it is, I don’t know what he’s talking about or who he’s talking about. I just heard about it five minutes ago. I can’t even remember the guy’s name.”
