Ryan Zimmerman - 0 for 3, .000 AVG.
Strasburg vs Crow...
I probably would have been more concerned by the Stephen Strasburg quote in a recent Nationals Journal article by Washington Post writer Dave Sheinin, if I didn't remembered hearing Aaron, in an interview by Joseph Hamrahi at Baseball Digest Daily Live on 8/23/2008, shortly after the Washington Nationals had failed to sign their no.1 overall pick, state that he hadn't heard from the Nationals after the draft either, or as he put it in the interview:
"'Well, I mean, I talked to the general manager (then Jim Bowden) right after, like the day, (of the draft) he was just like 'Hey congratulations, we’re glad to have you' but then I didn’t hear back from him until for like the whole rest of that month, and you know, I never talked to him, it was mostly dealing with my agent and all that stuff, so, I mean it was not really trying to get something figured out right away. It was just like, 'Congratulations, we’re glad we picked you,' and just, they left it at that for the most part on draft day.'"
So when Strasburg says, as quoted by Mr Sheinin, "I haven't heard from the Nationals" since being selected in the draft, it doesn't worry me too much, since Mr. Sheinin also notes later in the article that, "'Acting' General Manager Mike Rizzo has been in frequent contact for weeks with the Strasburg's agent, Scott Boras..."
The Riggleman Era Begins...
Just so you know, in 90 games after taking over for the Seattle Mariners last season, Jim Riggleman was 36-54.
Ryan Zimmerman In The ASG (Go Ahead Click And Listen!!)
-- Ryan Zimmerman takes over at third for David Wright in the top of the fifth. Zimmerman gets his first AB with one out in the fifth against Edwin Jackson of the Tigers. Zimmerman flies out to The Rangers' Josh Hamilton in center.
-- 2 outs in 7th. Francisco Cordero gets a line drive from Justin Mourneau right into Ryan Zimmerman’s glove at third.
-- Zimmerman’s 2nd at bat of the night its against Joe Nathan and he flies out to Adam Jones in right for the second out.

Well, with Harden going for the Cubs
the Nationals have a chance at getting a win. I know a lot of Cubs fans think he’s great and all, but personally, I’ve been kind of underwhelmed since he was acquired. Plus, Lannan is a fine pitcher.
Now against Zambrano on Friday, it depends on which Zambrano is pitching (the one who is a potential ace or the bad one).
Saturday when it’s Ted Lilly, I expect the Cubs will win unless Lilly is trying to teach a lesson. Google The Teddy Lilly Fan Club for a look at their blog and do searches at Bleed Cubbie Blue under “Ted Lilly Facts” and “Lillyisms” for a look at some of Cubdom’s view of Ted Lilly. (Ted just allows Chuck Norris to share some attributes ascribed to him.) Seriously, though, I think Ted Lilly IS the ace of the Cubs staff and I’m hoping they resign him after this season.
I don’t know which Cub is pitching Sunday so no prediction.
I ‘m very fond of the Nationals, but I’m hoping the Cubs win the series. Sorry, DC Faithful, but I am a Cubs fan first. I will concede the Cubs are very uneven this year (this is not their year) and they could split the series or yes,even lose. It’s never wise to under- estimate the Nats who can pull out some seriously scrappy playing and take series from teams. Loved their series against the Yankees . Best of luck to both teams and yes, you’ll probably be seeing a lot of Cub fans at the park . Wish I could be there. I’d like to see the ballpark and I love DC. Some year.

I’m very fond of…fond……Sorry brook !! I’m just saying I love your analysis and all but I’m just fond of the sometime love of the Nats. LOL!!!
Please don’t take this badly I’m laughing while I write it. Keep hoping for Cubs wins and the Nats will open its ball park to the longing masses. All hail being “fond of”….

I wish I knew...
I’ve heard all sorts of theories on his playing and hitting since he’s been with the Cubs. Lou has finally tired of his problems as a lead-off hitter, and moved him down in the order just before the break.

Oh yeah, saw that in your roundtable........realist!
I don’t want any more starting pitchers……
I want “Gold Glove-caliber actions and soft hands”, as well as “advanced footwork and instincts and the ability to hit for both power and average on both sides of the plate.”
Guys like that…

Good night, DC Faithful
Enjoyed this evening’s visit. Won’t be around the next two evenings, maybe I’ll drop in Sunday afternoon. I will say this, I do like your game threads better than the BCB game thread.
