Manny being Manny
This is an amazing story.
Hey, it could be worse...he could be playing for the Nats!
It does raise the question - what did Olsen do when he rehabbed recently?

Who was pitching today?
I saw the box line. It was a left handed starter, he went 8.2 innings, effectively earning the win. Although he had a 5:5 K:BB ratio, the team converted a W out of his performance.
Could'nt have been Scott Olsen, could it? I know Lannan wouldn't go on such short rest, but did the team just hand him a different jersey, patt him on the ass, and say "go get 'em again kiddo!" or was that really Scotty Olsen?

Nats unfinished business
This is seriously one of the funnist things in baseball. Because of rain, the May 5 game at Nationals Park against the Astros was suspended in the 11th inning, the score tied at 10.
All along, the teams, in partnership with Major League Baseball, had resolved to finish that game before the July 9 8:05 p.m. (EST) contest at Minute Maid Park.
Chich reports:
The game will resume in the bottom of the 11th inning, with the Nats batting with one out and a runner on first base. Astros RHP LaTroy Hawkins was the pitcher on the mound, and he is allowed to continue his outing if the Astros see fit. Elijah Dukes, though, was the runner on first. Dukes was demoted yesterday to Class AAA Syracuse, so the Nats can replace Dukes with a pinch-runner. (Anybody voting for Nyjer Morgan?)
Does anyone else find it amusing that Joel Hanrahan could pick up the win if we get this one right?

Nats aren't the only team with spelling issues. Meet the ORILOES.
Is there something in the water? The Orioles misspelled their homepage as ORILOES.COM

When a team drafts a player, as the Orioles did McDonald 20 years ago and the Nationals will Strasburg tonight, it's not paying for the entirety of a career. It's paying to control the player's first six years of major-league service time. So before we start worrying whether Strasburg will be an all-time great, let's focus on his first six major-league years. Because that's what the Nationals will be contemplating as they negotiate a price.

BOWDEN SPEAKS...
I'll be completely honest, I never want to write ••• •••••'• name on Federal Baseball.com again. But he's back. There's a link to Washington Post writer Chico Harlan's post entitled, "Silence Broken, Job Lost", in the title above...
All the video and the story that started all the talk again is on WUSA9.com's site in article by Matt King entitled, "Bowden Breaks His Silence On 9NEWS And WUSA9.com".
