He did, he did....... but it was his dinky that sealed the deal, after the Amazing Ronnie B. got it started.

Dibble and Carpenter commented in the highlights that the Belliard single was key, and they’re the experts….

Ryan Zimmerman

king of the pop outs.

Was watching the Orioles-Angels game the other night and the announcers mentioned something the Angels do every year. For a couple weeks in January they have all their prospects come down to AZ and have a crash course in how to play baseball the right way. Old Angels stars and current coaches drill fundamentals into their brains. Hmm…I wonder if maybe that could be a decent idea for our fundamentally poor team could benefit from that.

I am worried that DC could fall into a Baltimore/Toronto syndrome...

If you know in March you won’t compete how long can you sustain maximum effort…I’ll never accuse them of not being professional, but the losing has to get to you…

And when you do good? Benched for some new guy…..

Hanson vs Lannan with two dow...make that three down, 1-0 Braves after five.

I dont think this team is that far away from competing… I know it sounds silly right now but in 2 or 3 years.,. when this young pitching is fully developed.. ya never know. I think trading dunn would be a mistake, personally

Especially because I think the Mets are in need of a rebuild, the Braves are a few years ahead and the Phils are using smoke and mirrors right now...

I think the next year or two the Nationals might end up being competitive sooner than some people believe…
