Glad to see Ramos...
Wish I was also seeing the Boy Wonder. And also not seeing Nyjer in the leadoff.

No nickname for Ramos?
I guess he doesn’t need one yet. Excited for a good game though!
um, please visit my soccer (football) blog. it's interesting, I promise. por favor? (filbertway.com)
Sunshine will come to Nats Park, I promise. (visit por favor? my website)
Having Espinosa and Ramos would be aewsome!

just sayin
going off the little ive seen and not just the hot grounder up the middle last night. just looks like he moves in the right directions very quickly. Obviously 4 is a need but if they solve that through FA and if spinner’s bat is half as hot as its been in these games, its gotta be tempting to find some way to keep him up on the team

Not crazy about sacrificing there with Desmond hot and a weak pitcher on the mound.
I guess Zim’s happy about the RBI chance, though.

Props to Morgan for getting us on the board.
Also props to him for hitting the ball the other way. Those weak ground balls to second are probably him trying to pull the ball too much sometimes to maximize power he doesn’t possess.

Lol Pirates.
Morse adds insult to injury by doubling up Tabata. A very, very bad play.
On a desperate search for Sunshine at Nats Park. In Rizzo and Ramos we trust.
Maybe not so bad.
I guess he’s trying to get to third with one out and I’m sure the scouting report has Morse as a butcher in RF. Those are the kind of plays Morse has to make if he wants to make a run at a starting RF job for next year.

Aren't Willies just a tiebreaker, though?
I thought it was mostly Rigglemans and Desmonds that were the big items in the contest.

Entrants should submit guesses for the number of errors the Nats make from Aug 6th through the end of the season; how many double-switches Jim Riggleman performs, and, as a tie breaker, the number of times Willie Harris appears as a pinch hittter.
but i think this is going to end up very close

Don't know who's listening to the radio...
…they’ve got giveaways after the postgame show on Nationals Insider. Personally won a pair of tickets last week. Seemed like it isn’t but so hard to get in the queue.

Quoted in papers this weekend backing him 100%...said he's just had bad luck at plate...
Is a good guy behind the scenes.

There we go.
Glad Storen gets through that one with his EAR unscathed. Still needs more missed bats and more command, but we’ll take it!

Going to take my before Senators nap. Big, big day for the Sens.
Tatusko’s on the hill against a guy who ain’t so great. Sens really need to win today if they want to take down Bowie for the final playoff spot.
