BREAK UP THE F-ING NATIONALS

Still waiting to see the lineup for tonight

Barves fans and Rangers fans were pretty salty last night.

Caps and Nats win 3-1? I like this. I didn't watch the game last night due to Caps] but we were flipping back and forth during intermission and commercial breaks. Glad Dan Haren made it 8 innings!

Haren looked exceptional, and Soriano is really fitting in nice as closer.

laroche looked on last night.  his double was a laser, and just missed being a HR by maybe 2 ft. 

once this offense gets going (last april they were slow, too), they are going to be dangerous. denard span addition makes this line-up insanely dangerous.

also, a plus of laroche's slump - desmond in the 5 spot, where he belongs IMO.

I have had such a fun time watching Denard Span in a Nats uniform. That dude is an on base MACHINE! He's also awesome in center field. Just hope the bats heat up and everyone gets healthy and back in the line-up.

Also looks like Rendon is headed back to Double A ball.

yep. the biggest stat brought up with the morse/span trade was WAR, which span had a significant upside compared to morse.  it's already showing - we dont win last night w/o span.

If tonight gets rained out, will there be a double header tomorrow? Are they also going to be screwing everyone out of their money if they can't make the make-up games? lol

I got tickets for Friday against the Cubbies and rains in the forecast…

no rain in the forecast for Friday

'According to the team, season ticket holders who had tickets for Tuesday?s game will automatically have their card activated for Thursday?s game.

There will be no refunds or exchanges for later games, which represents departure in team policy that a Nationals spokesperson attributed to ?higher demand and less capacity.?'

Bullshit move Nats.

not the case anymore:

i didnt have tickets so ive got no stake in this, but im glad they (belatedly) came to their senses here

The PR office was clearly not consulted by the ticket office when the first announcement went out, then they took over quickly.

That was quick.

Started watching the game after the Caps last night, another solid outing for Raf. Dude is solid. Hope we can get the win today………………………….if the rain stops.

I fought the wall and the wall won.

11 stitches to the chin. Was he forced to shave the ugly beard?

Ouch! I heard about that on the drive into work, had not seen it though. At least they won! And if I heard correctly he should be in the line-up tonight…

Trout catches that, makes it look easy, and doesn't miss the next game.

You're right, this would have been a much better post:

Padded wall vs plexiglass wall…….. 2 totally different catches in 2 totally different ballparks.

Not to mention ONE WALL IS PADDED AND THE OTHER HAS FUCKING PLEXIGLASS AROUND IT.

really smackie that was beneath your usual standards for posts… :D

Actually, there was only one catch.  The other one ended up being a triple.
