Adam Lind Makes Sense for the Washington Nationals
Adam Lind makes sense for the Washington Nationals. It is no secret that the Nationals need some help on offense, especially in the outfield. Injuries have hit the Nationals hard with Mike Morse and Jayson Werth both going down for an extended time. Morse is still trying to recover from a strained lat muscle he [...]
Stephen Strasburg Hits His First Career Home Run in Washington Nationals Win Over the Baltimore Orioles
We all knew that Stephen Strasburg could pitch. However, against the Baltimore Orioles on Sunday he showed he can hit as well. The Washington Nationals ace went 2-for-2 at the plate including the first home run of his Major League career while striking out 8 Orioles batters over five innings to earn the win. In [...]
Bryce Harper Meets Playboy Playmate and UFC Ring Girl Brittney Palmer
It’s good to be Washington Nationals’ outfielder Bryce Harper these days. You would figure hitting his first Major League homer would be the biggest thrill he would receive this week, but au contraire my friend. Bryce Harper went to UFC on Fuel 3 fights – which I am assuming is the UFC’s equivalant of WWE Superstars – and got his picture [...]
The Washington Nationals Should Trade for Peter Bourjos
The Washington Nationals need Peter Bourjos. The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim need pitching help, especially in the bullpen. The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim believe they have a surplus of outfielders. The Angels need relief pitching, something the Nationals don’t have a lot of at the moment with closer Drew Storen and setup man [...]
Stephen Strasburg Does Not Need Strict Innings Limit
Stephen Strasburg is a monster. From the start of the 2009 college season, to Major League Baseball‘s amateur draft, to his big league debut and on through his start that took place this evening, Stephen Strasburg has met and exceeded the hype and expectations. In terms of raw filth, there are a handful of starting [...]
Washington Nationals Rookie Bryce Harper Handles Himself Like a Pro After Getting Hit By Cole Hamels
When Washington Nationals rookie outfielder Bryce Harper settled into the batter’s box in the first inning against Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Cole Hamels one of the last things running through his mind was the idea of getting plunked by a fastball. However, Hamels delivered a fastball right into the small of the back of the young [...]
Mike Rizzo: Nationals GM Calls Cole Hamels Fake Tough
Last night’s game between the Washington Nationals was awesome. You had steals of home, bean balls, a broken wrist (not awesome), and a 2 home run guy by a fantasy player of mine. What happened after the game was even better. Cole Hamels admitting to reporters that he hit Bryce Harper on purpose. Yesss. Welcome [...]
Jayson Werth Injures Wrist Sunday Night
Jayson Werth might be out quite awhile if the tests on his wrist come back the way I think they will after watching that sliding attempt. In the 6th inning of the Sunday night game between the Washington Nationals and Philadelphia Phillies, Jayson Werth came sprinting in to try and make a sliding catch. Unfortunately, [...]
Bryce Harper Looks Overmatched At the Plate
The Washington Nationals have a bright future, and one that could lead to multiple world series titles. Bryce Harper IS going to be a part of that, but right now Harper is looking a little overmatched at the plate. The Nationals brought him up on Saturday when they lost Ryan Zimmerman to an injury, and [...]
Washington Nationals Need A Reliever
The Washington Nationals are set to have a good year. They’ve got good young starting pitching. They’ve got some power. They’ve got some speed. They seem to be a club that continues battling until the last out, seen in the first 3 games against the Chicago Cubs. Anyone can say, oh well- who cares. It [...]
