Debbi interviewing Dunn...hilarious...
Adam, Jim said you’re doing better at 1B. To what do you attribute that?
Well, nothing I don;t guess…doing the same thing…still learning.
Is repetition a big thing learning a new position?

I have mixed feelings about that.
I’d rather see him spend a year, or at least half a season, learning the major-league game in the minors. Don’t rush it.

Olsen or Mock?

How does a conversation about Olsen turn into Stras?

All conversations turn into Stras.
Especially when you apparently don’t know how to read…
"If somebody hasn't seen me, I try to leave a good impression on their mind, so they come back to enjoy this beautiful game of baseball." --Tony Plush
I kinda feel that they may start him late – sort of like J-Zim…or maybe later in the year and let him get his feet wet at the start in the minors…althou there will be pressure to start him from the get go.
Padilla walked into the Nats' clubhouse for the first time and said, "My God. I'm in heaven."
The fans will want to see their millions...
…but I hope the team has some time to get him ready, first. I don’t think AFL will be enough.

It's got to be fairly uncommon to have a runner on 3rd with no outs...
…it’s probably more uncommon for the Nats, but I think it’s probably uncommon for good teams, too. Oh, I just bought myself more math to do, didn’t I?
"If somebody hasn't seen me, I try to leave a good impression on their mind, so they come back to enjoy this beautiful game of baseball." --Tony Plush
It's probably relatively small sample size - triples aren't common at all - but it's not just --3.

A guy could be on third easily with no outs if others were on base too. Are we saying only on third?
Yeah, hence ---3.
-23 and 1-3 are more common, and I think even 123 is too.

I actually meant all cases with a runner on third and no outs...
…possibly with runners on other bases. Each case that included a runner on third and no outs had 11 or less PA associated with it (out of something over 3000 PA in the first half) for the Nats.

With the pitcher coming up, I think it was a decent call.
Wil had a good pitch to bunt, and he missed it. With a team that can actually bunt, it’s a good call. Of course, Mock would probably have had a sac fly there if Nieves hadn’t gotten out…

Heres a Chiefs report
3 games ago, they started a 4 game series with Durham, who they were 1.5 games back of. They split the 1st 2 and lost the 3rd one. Currently they trail 5-3 in game 4. If they win, they will be 1.5 out. A loss= 3.5 games out…. In the division, they trailed by 3.5 games to SWB heading into today. SWB trails 4-0 in the 9th so assuming a SWB loss, the Chiefs will be either 3.5 or 2.5 games out….. They have 13 games remaining and 4 more with SWB including 2 starting to tomorrow
