• Washington Post - Nationals Journal - "Josh Willingham's Left Field Power" - Chico Harlan

"Ever notice how every Josh Willingham homer looks the same? Think about it: When was the last time you saw Willingham hit a homer to right? Or even to center? The Nats' other big home run guys do it all..."

• Nationals 6, Mets 5 - Free Tickets Come With Catch - Watching Mets and Nationals - NYTimes.com David Waldstein.

"If for no other reason than the game was played and the tickets were printed, they came. Not many of them. But they looked at the standings that day, saw two of the worst teams in baseball squaring off in a meaningless game in Queens, and decided to come anyway."

FROM NJ. Dez in RF

Harris – 8
Guzman – 6
Zimmerman – 5
Dunn – 3
Willingham – 7
Orr – 4
Desmond – 9
Bard – 2
Lannan – 1

New York

Pagan – 8
Castillo – 4
Wright – 5
Francoeur – 9
Tatis – 7
Murphy – 3
Valdez – 6
Thole – 2
Redding – 1

Check out that lineup; it’s not a misprint. Ian Desmond, for the first time in his professional career, is playing right field. When I spotted Desmond today in the clubhouse, he was wearing Justin Maxwell’s outfield mitt, breaking it in for feel. “If they have confidence to put me out there,” he said, “I’ll do it.”

Orr has played RF before. What gives?

Riggles is rewarding Orr for agreeing to learn how to be a catcher.

Maybe...theory time...

Maybe they decided Desmond has to be a SS and not a 2B.

Ray Knight doesn’t like Dez in RF. Orr has played outfield. It’s risky to put him out there in a quirky outfield.

Of course, I missed all the Nats’ nutball and Riggles’ weirdo lineup…watching my Tar heels win their football game in a decisive way…and my neighbor got a new puppy. Hard to unhappy around a new puppy.
Now I’m hoping the Nats come back for the Curly W in the 9th.
