DC right-hander Garrett Mock makes his third start of the Spring tonight against the Atlanta Braves in Washington's spring home, Viera, Florida's Space Coast Stadium, where the soon-to-be-27-year-old will makes his case for inclusion on the Nats' Opening Day roster and in the starting rotation. (0-1) with a 3.60 ERA in 2 starts and 5.0 IP so far in Grapefruit League action, Mock's given up 8 hits, 1 HR and 2 ER while recording 3 K's without issuing a walk. Mock' s opponent on the hill, the Braves' Derek Lowe, held the Nationals scoreless in 2.0 IP last Friday in the Braves' 11-8 win over Washington. Here's the lineup Lowe will be facing:
DC Starting Lineup:
- Justin Maxwell - CF
- Ian Desmond - SS
- Ryan Zimmerman - 3B
- Adam Dunn - 1B
- Elijah Dukes - RF
- Adam Kennedy - 2B
- Pudge Rodriguez - C
- Roger Bernadina - LF
- Garrett Mock - SP

Mock's stuff
Mock’s change is cruel… his arm action has the Bravos way out of sync. And his breaking ball has locked up more than a couple of hitters. Despite the two hard-hit balls in the first inning, I’m impressed.

Not today
It doesn’t look good for him, I’m afraid. When you’re fighting for a roster spot, you’re leading the team in strikeouts, and your name’s not Dunn, there’s a problem.

Hit in the same direction, into the same wind, as Dunn’s shot which ended up 30 feet short of the fence. Hoo boy.
