MLB.com has posted an interesting Q&A with Nyjer Morgan.
There has been some interesting discussion of the Strasburg situation, comparing him with players that have defected to join the free agent market over the years.
When the Nationals had a game with the Astros called due to rain, Elijah Dukes was on first base... and he's not on the team anymore...
Mark Zuckerman makes the case that Milledge and Dukes had to go because of their attitudes. He may be on to something.
Somebody appears to have had enough of Scott Boras. Take THAT, Land Rover!
More from around the league after the jump...
The Rest of It
Yahoo's power rankings have the Yankees moving up. Guess who's in last place!
While a lot has happened to slow the Nationals, at least they haven't been the victims of a bee delay.

Some Braves personnel moves.
Kelly Johnson will have to wait until after the All-Star break to attempt regain regular playing time. The Braves have placed him on the 15-day disabled list with right wrist tendinitis.
Brooks Conrad has been promoted from Triple-A Gwinnett to take Johnson’s roster spot. Conrad has hit .259 with nine homers and a .769 OPS (on-base percentage plus slugging percentage) in 73 games this year.
After Martin Prado produced a four-hit, four-RBI performance during Tuesday night’s win over the Phillies, he learned that he had earned the opportunity to serve as the Braves everyday second baseman. He’d spent most of the previous month platooning with Johnson.
