GameThread: Washington Nationals At Philadelphia Phillies- Game 47 or 48 of 162.
Washington Nationals at Philadelphia Phillies, May 29, 2009 7:05 PM EDT
Today's Starters Are Going To Stare At You Now...
Detwiler vs Happ...
J.A. Happ, who was working out of the bullpen last time DC faced Philadelphia, replaced Chan Ho Park in the Phils' rotation and made his first start of the season in Yankee Stadium last Saturday in a game which he left in line for a win before a 9th inning two-run HR and a walk-off RBI single deprived the 26-year-old left-hander of the W...Ross Detwiler is two starts into his Major League career, and he's yet to earn a decision either way though the Nationals are 0-2 with their '07 1st Round pick on the mound, in losses to Pittsburgh and Baltimore in which he's allowed just 3 ER in 11 innings.
Acta And Detwiler...
Asked by MLB.com's Bill Ladson yesterday, which of the young Nationals' starters was the biggest surprise, DC Manager Manny Acta told Mr. Ladson, in an article entitled, "Acta discussed Nats' present, future", that it was today's starter, Ross Detwiler, "...because of the way he looked in Spring Training." Mr. Acta explained:
"He was erratic when he was on the mound. Going back to what I saw in Spring Training, I didn't think I would see him this quick at the big league level. But we all knew he had the potential because you don't get picked in the first round based on a coincidence."
Not To Dwell On The Past...BUT...
Yahoo! Sports' Kevin Kaduk, aka 'Duk, wrote yesterday, in an article about the home run the Mets' Daniel Murphy supposedly hit Wednesday night entitled, "Mets benefit from home run that probably was not a home run", that he'd:
"...spent the better part of the morning watching replays of Daniel Murphy's blast to right field Wednesday night at Citi Field and still have no idea how the umpiring crew ruled it a two-run HR."
HERE's the video...take one more look before we move on to Philadelphia. I watched it frame by frame, and still can't decide...
DC Starting Lineup...
- The Guzzzz - SS
- Nick "Two-Spot" Johnson - 1B
- THE KIDS CALL HIM ZIM!! - 3B
- The Big Bridgey! - RF
- THE HAMMER - LF
- The Bard - C
- Anderson "Elvis" Hernandez - 2B
- J-Maxx - CF
- Rosswiler - SP
DC vs Philly - '09
The Washington Nationals' first win this season, after seven tries, came against Philadelphia back on April 16th, and it was one of only two games that DC's taken from Philly this season, with Philadelphia winning 7 of the first 9 games between the NL East "rivals", and 6 of the last 7 they've played, including four-straight in a sweep in Nationals Park two weekends back. Since the start of the last series with the Phillies, on May 15, the Nationals are 2-12...
Washington Times' writer Thom Loverro On The '09 Washington Nationals...
Just when you thought that things couldn't get worse, Washington Times' writer Thom Loverro takes us on a quick one paragraph review of the season so far, in an article entitled, "DC finds itself entering the steroid zone", that thankfully doesn't mention the "Natinals" jerseys, but unfortunately touches on everything else...(ed. note - "Wait, what? Oh he does mention the jerseys, ugh! Missed that..."):
"General manager resigns in disgrace. FBI investigates Dominican player signings. Attendance is poor. Embarrassment ensues over misspelled jerseys. Three new statues on the center-field plaza are universally panned. A small but angry fan base gets upset over your wooing of Phillies fans to Nationals Park. Daniel Cabrera (he of the $2.6 million salary) is cut loose. And still upcoming is a summer of anxiety that includes dealing with Scott Boras and his $50 million demands for Stephen Strasburg."

it was a legit topic brought up yesterday on the Cards board
if Cabrera had the type of game to be a Dave Duncan reclamation project.
But if you’re basically giving up on a guy, which it seems like is happening, then isn’t anything else a viable option? Even if its a bat boy and a 15th round pick in 2012.

Homer-Gate should be over with one quick fix...
Teams whose stadiums have odd features will provide, at their own cost, high definition cameras aimed parallel to said odd features. If fans are within distance of being able to reach into the field of play for fair balls, these teams must also provide the HD cameras.
seriously
can we put some sort of moratorium on these built in prefab “quirky” ballpark designs? I mean, I think it was pretty obvious that Enron was going down when they sponsored a stadium with a damn hill in CF and flagpole in play. I mean, I hated the 1960’s era multipurpose concrete bowls as much as anybody (RFK, I’m looking at you), but at least it didn’t interfere with the game at hand.
As much as I do like the fact that there is some individuality in baseball stadiums as opposed to any other sports stadium, they need to stop when it actually interferes with the game being played. Seems to defeat the purpose of providing a playing field.
by Expatcardfan on May 29, 2009 11:00 AM EDT up reply actions
I think it's cool. the hometown players know their field better than most so the edge goes to them.
On the other hand I do think you need high def cameras at the walls in general not just funky figured fields. If you’re gonna make replay a part of the game than do it right the first time…
outfield design with some corners, angles, and tall walls are one thing
But when off-field type things start interfering with play? That starts getting a bit rough for me to accept. Of course, then you bring in all the Metrodome factors and balls getting “lost in the roof”.
Ivy on the fence is a bit suspect, I think, also. But I also hate the Cubs.

While baseball is ruining itself, lets get a talkshow so the umpires can dish on the players and coaches.
We can call it TBZ. The Blue Zone.
All sorts of buzzers go off when you hit the ring, and holograms of #'s +25!! +100 float in the air...
The fans will love it…

I can only imagine what happens when you make it through the ring on a Grand Slam..
…and of course your point add up during the year. "Lady and Gentlemen Adam Dunn is going for he’s 10th ring hit this year which will give his team an extra 25 point… " Oh the fun…oh the merthful mayhem that will insue. I’m so excited and I just can’t hide it, I know, I know, I know I like it…
Why would they want to do that when they can have mysterious-days-later-no-one's-sure home runs win games for them...

He broke rule # 1. His team over-achieve. He raised expectations.

I bet the Nats will be ready to try next year...after perfecting failure in 2009.
The Nats are dreaming up new ways to fail on a daily basis.

blaspheym, i know, but something to stir up emotions
What does it take to trade Zimmerman (with one N)?
Personally, I think nothing works. Unless a 3 team trade works out for Longoria and Pujols for Zimmerman and Milledge, you don’t do it. Anyone else?

at $411 i'd think somebody would take his bat
he’s putting up decent numbers this year, and every scout from a few years back thinks he has upside, its the character issues, right? an environment where he can grow up could be a good spot, and maybe the Nats get some young’ens in return.
I am a huge proponent of building up the minor leaguers, btw.

Jesus, Hammer, where did that come from?
I’m all for the change of scenery type thing, even as much as Milton Bradley just seems destined to be a Cub. I think Dukes is some good trade bait in the next two months – could do well with a contender with a Torre, Sciosia, or equal in the dugout for a team that needs a corner outfielder.

that sequence to Johnson was just terrible
the first called strike was no where near the strike zone. Nick had to swing at it the next time, and strike three was six inches outside.
pathetic.

I mean the Grumman strike box showed that the pitches to Johnson were not even close!
I jokingly said that Lidge would throw the 3rd strike as a way outside fast ball. He did and Johnson, probably , one of the best eyes in baseball is out.
Let's hope Johnson told the Ump, there's no getting tossed at that point...
