GameThread: San Francisco Giants At Washington Nationals- Game 50 or 51 of 162. VOTE ZIM!!!
San Francisco Giants at Washington Nationals, Jun 2, 2009 7:05 PM EDT
Don't Let His Goofy Grin Fool You...
Giants' right-hander Tim Lincecum held the Atlanta Braves scoreless over eight innings in his last trip to the mound, but before that San Francisco had lost two-straight games with their Cy Young-Award-winning ace pitching. The 25-year-old Giants' '06 1st Round pick faces the Nationals' 25-year-old '05 12th Rounder, Craig Stammen, who's making his third major league start.
The Nationals vs Lincecum...
Josh Bard - 1 for 6, .167 AVG, 1 RBI.
Ronnie Belliard - 2 for 4, .500 AVG.
Adam Dunn - 2 for 8, .250 AVG, 1 RBI, 4 K's.
Willie Harris - 2 for 7, .286 AVG, 1 2B, 1 3B.
Austin Kearns - 0 for 3, .000 AVG.
Ryan Zimmerman - 0 for 2, .000 AVG, 1 BB, 1 K.
VOTE ZIM!!! -
In case you didn't see the reports yesterday, the Washington Nationals' third baseman, the Face of the Franchise©, the kid they call Zim, Ryan Zimmerman jumped from 4th to 2nd in All-Star balloting in the latest returns released yesterday afternoon. MLB.com's Bill Ladson wrote about the rise of Zimmerman in an article entitled, "Zimmerman moves up in All-Star voting", in which Mr. Ladson noted that Zimmerman's behind only David Wright now, with the voting to continue for one more month, ending on July 2nd at 11:59 pm. That gives us all a month to push Zimmerman over the top, and while acknowledging the fact that this is a popularity contest more than a recognition of achievement, it's about time the Nationals had someone elected to the ASG instead of named.
Vote For Zim HERE. (ed. note - "And remember, you can vote up to 25 times!!!)
Federal Baseball.com regular, PhDBrian, has been trying to convince you, the Federal Baseball.com reader to try to convince others around the SBN to help with the cause, you can check out his FanPost on the subject entitled, "Let's Start the Vote For Zim Online Movement!!!"
Here are the current totals as of Monday, note that Zimmerman trails Wright by 200,000 votes?
1. David Wright (NYM) - 685,972
2. Ryan Zimmerman (DC) - 482,059
3. Bill Hall (MIL) - 440,159
(ed. note - "I started a Message Board thread over at MyMASN.com as well, maybe if we make some collective noise over there MASN will get behind the movement.")
Tonight's DC Starting Lineup...(courtesy of the Washington Post's Chico Harlan.)

Flores Out At Least Three Months, Maybe For Season

I never understood that as a marketing slogan.
I thought you were supposed to sprinkle salt when it snowed?
"We are all jinxers in NatsTown™." --cat daddy3000
it means that Morton salt doesn't stick together
in clumps when it’s humid, but pours freely
Okay, that makes sense.
I hadn’t recognized humidity-induced cakey-ness of salt as a problem, but it’s a quite a clever slogan in that context. Learn something new on the intertubes every day!
"We are all jinxers in NatsTown™." --cat daddy3000
St. Claire = clumpy salt...... McCatty = Morton's!
Ugh, McCatty is a gut-feel guy……. Like a commenter said, we just traded Eckstein for Lenny Harris.
Maybe it’ll work better. Maybe the staff is not too bright. Maybe they are all Nooks Nukes. Maybe we’ll stop having pitching practice…..

"Oh no!!!!! Poor Flo!!!!"
…texts back Mrs. Doghouse after I texted her the bad news. I started drinking early this afternoon, so it’ll be alright for me. Plus, I have sandwiches from Taylor Gourmet for the game tonight! Woo-hoo! They are all kinds of delicious, even if the kids who run the place are from Philly. Our club may be falling to pieces, but I got me some beer and good sandwiches, so it’s not a total loss. See you up in the cheap seats.
LET’S GO NATS GO!
"We are all jinxers in NatsTown™." --cat daddy3000
So, do we stay with Wil and Bard or work Montz (I know he's loafing) into the lineup? Or is there another catcher lurking in our system?
I'm just going to think happy thoughts, and maybe that will fix everything.
Packing up my tasty sandwiches and heading to the ballpark! Mmmm, sandwiches…
"We are all jinxers in NatsTown™." --cat daddy3000
Happy thoughts = Nats Strategy......
McCatty: "I really think that a positive approach is more effective at times than always worrying about [mechanics]
“I just want guys to go out there with the approach that we’re planning to play hardball.”
Does he chew on the stump of a cigar, as well?

With the pitching as bad as it was, especially the bullpen, it can't be seen as a surprise, though I don't blame Randy...
