Washington Nationals/Florida Marlins: Spring GameThread.

In a recent interview with MASNSports.com's Byron Kerr, Washington Nationals' right-hander Garrett Mock praised the work Nats' catcher Pudge Rodriguez has done so far this Spring, but this afternoon, the 26-year-old right-hander wil be throwing to backup backstop Wil Nieves when he takes the mound in Viera, Florida's Space Coast Stadium against the visiting Florida Marlins at 1:05 pm EST. Mock will be making his fourth start of the Spring, having allowed 12 hits, 4 ER and 2 HR's in 9.0 IP so far, over which he's K'd 5 without allowing a single walk. Here's the DC Starting Lineup as of 11:37 am EST on Saturday according to MLB.com's Bill Ladson's Twitter (@washingnats):

  1. Roger Bernadina - CF
  2. Cristian Guzman - SS
  3. Ryan Zimmerman - 3B (Word.)
  4. Adam Dunn - 1B
  5. Josh Willingham - LF
  6. Mike Morse - RF
  7. Alberto Gonzalez - 2B
  8. Wil "Blocker" Nieves - C
  9. Garrett Mock - SP

Wonder about Morse

I think he could put it together. I wonder where he will be best defensively. I was kind of hoping for 1st base to replace Dunn when he walks/traded. What do people think of his OF defense or defense at 1st?

by HobbsNY9 on Mar 20, 2010 1:27 PM EDT reply actions  

his defense at 1b is passable, OF he's not good

plus, he’s no long-term replacement. he’s only one year younger than Dunn.

We just need a replacement that lets Dunn walk

And if he is a plus defender at first that could be a big selling point in the comparison with Dunn

by HobbsNY9 on Mar 20, 2010 1:31 PM EDT up reply actions  

Long-term replacements at first are everywhere

There seem to be plenty of solid first baseman on one year deals. Branyan, Garko. Or the big free agents come along a lot. Agonzalez, Howard, Berkman, Pena, DLeee

by HobbsNY9 on Mar 20, 2010 1:32 PM EDT up reply actions  

he's passable at first, certainly no gold glover

he came up a shortstop, so he’s got good hands. but he got moved from short cause his footwork is spotty. plus, he’s just not going to hit enough to be a starter at first. he’s got good pop, but as a pinch-hitter, he can look fastball every at bat. if he’s getting 4 ABs every day, he’ll be exposed.

Morse is not a major league starter.

Players get better as starters

They study this. It’s harder to play off the Bench. I’ll be happy if Harris and Morse are starting in RF and 1B. Will mean the team is really building for the future. Don’t clog it with expensive guys like Dunn and Dye who won’t be here when the team is good. Harris and Morse would make our pitchers look good with their Defense. We already have them for cheap.

Must admit, I kind of expected he was a "do a lot with a little" Pitching Coach...

Who might not last with a real lineup…Made bad Montreal teams okay, but once they got more talented, the Nats had to upgrade…

That's the most I've giggled at the word "Upgrade" since I last watched "Idiocracy"....

Anyone? Mike Judge? No…I tried…dern obscure movie references…though I do think that movie was actually a documentary from the future that’s already coming true….

he needs to get used to throwing every fifth day, uh, oops

i really think a lot of Stras and Storen getting sent down was Rizzo wants them to ride a bus for two months. “how it’s done” and all that.

Nothing wrong with making them earn it...just wish they weren't so clearly capable of getting it done in DC already...

The complaints about Strasburg seemed nitpicky, though they probably are importanty details…
