Lots of Washington Nationals news and comment as we slowly move closer to pitchers and catchers reporting. I wore a Nats cap today to work for the first time in a long while.
First off, Wilson Ramos kidnapping in Venezuela is detailed in this week’s Sports Illustrated.
Breaking this morning was the Nats plan to have a [...]
I predicted Davey Johnson would be the Washington Nationals manager as far back as 2006. I figured it would be for 2007 though. So, I was off by 4 years…
Johnson coming back was a foregone conclusion the moment he signed on after Jim Riggleman resigned. He’s talking big already — the 2012 pennant? Creating expectations [...]

Nats beat the clock, sign top five draft picks – The Wash. Times

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Walking out of Nationals Park yesterday with my dad, I was pretty ecstatic. The Washington Nationals had just beaten the Seattle Mariners to improve their record to 38-37, the first time they had a winning record in the summertime since 2005. They did with 8 innings of shutout pitching by Jason Marquis [...]
BREAKING: Per @washingnats Nyjer Morgan has been traded from the Washington Nationals for Cutter Dykstra. Yes, he’s Lenny Dykstra’s son. At the very least, the trade has to be addition by subtraction. It is too bad it didn’t work out, because Morgan’s play in 2009 made that season a lot more interesting for a couple [...]
Some Washington Nationals observations with Opening Day one week away:
The Nats turn on MLB Network’s 30 teams in 30 days feature was last night. There are 3 videos that are up focusing on
I never thought of my fellow Penn Stater Tom Verducci as writer of horror, but his column in the upcoming Sports Illustrated, Mechanical flaw will be red flag for Strasburg even after return is a tale of macabre that Washington Nationals fans are loathe to hear. Verducci goes into detail about why the “inverted W” [...]
In today’s latest Sunnytown column from Spring Training, Thomas Boswell noted an exchange between Washington Nationals GM Mike Rizzo and Jayson Werth (The Post). Rizzo told Werth that he “hated the expletive deleted Phillies” and Werth said “I hate the Phillies, too.” I took it for no more than staying on message, but Philly sports [...]
The Washington Nationals signed free agent Jayson Werth to a 7 year, $126 million contract today, several days after letting Adam Dunn leave.* Does it surprise you that 31 year old former Philadelphia Phillies outfielder is a Scott Boras client? It strikes me as an irresponsible contract, but since Ted Lerner is worth $3 billion, [...]
Free agent Adam Dunn left the Washington Nationals for the Chicago White Sox, upsetting me and Ryan Zimmerman. THE LERNERS ARE CHEAP!
