I should probably be tired of this gag now

Yup, the Washington Nationals are head to Milwaukee for 3 games against the Brewers, starting at 8:10 p.m. tonight. Then again at the same time on Tuesday and joy of joys, a day game on Wednesday at 1:10 p.m.
In fairness, I think I have to start posting the “What’s Happening” theme whenever the Nats visit [...]

Nats sweep doubleheader, series over Brewers

Yesterday, Adam Kilgore, the Washington Nationals beat writer for The Post, tweeted that the Nats were at .303 in slugging. Yikes. Perhaps they took it to heart, because by the end of the doubleheader, they had raised it up to .351. That is nothing to brag about and it is only good for 27th [...]

Nats vs. Brewers Q&A with David I. Leavitt

David I. Leavitt, who tweets at @LeavittDC, has been a Nats fan for six years and a Brewers fan for 34 years.

Nyjer Morgan to Brewers; Nats get Cutter Dykstra

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 [...]

Strasburg is intense; Nats aren’t as Brewers sweep; Barn shoutout

The Milwaukee Brewers swept the Washington Nationals this weekend. It was an disappointing series. First some interesting, less depressing stuff than the gamers:
Homer off of Stephen Strasburg at your own peril — Dave Shenin of The Post has part IV of his series on Stephen Strasburg. His wife (then fiancee was asked to describe him [...]

Jason Marquis, Nationals fall to Brewers, 11-7 – The PostAfter expressing concern that some pitchers in the bullpen were not getting enough work, Jim Riggleman had to use it to get all 27 outs. He won’t make that mistake again. After the 1st inning though, only one run was scored.

Let us never again be excited about the Nats being above .500 this late

Make it three in a row for the Washington Nationals! They got their sixth curly W in the book this afternoon behind a complete game shutout over the Milwaukee Brewers from Liván Hernández — vintage ¡LIVAN! again. He’s unscored upon this season and the owner of 2 of the 3 Nats 2010 quality starts. John [...]

Nats break losing streak, beat Brewers 8-3

Zimmerman, Dunn Get It Done for Nationals – The PostBloggers get suite access at the ballpark – The Wash. TimesFor all the good PR of the past week, signing Stephen Strasburg and taking the interim tag off of Mike Rizzo’s job title, the Nationals forgot how to win.
