Yeah I've really been impressed with him. Hopefully he sticks around when Markakis comes back.

I like him, and i really like Flaherty's glove. His bat could use some work, but his fielding is outstanding.
I would hope they can both find a permanent place.

I wish they would give Flaherty a chance at 3B. I think he could fit there with some time.

We've got scouts watching the Cubs Dempster, Garza, and Soriano. Of the three, I'd love to get Dempster. As long as we don't give up a top 5 prospect. Soriano is owed a lot of money over the next 2 years, like close to 20 mil. I'll pass on him and Garza would probably cost some prospects that I don't want to give up. Knowing Epstein, he'll probably still get good value for these guys, especially Garza.

[MattFancy]

Dempster would be a nice addition. Garza wouldn't be bad, but I think he would cost us more than Dempster.

Nice sweep. Now let's massacre the Braves.

Leaving a lead off double stranded is one of the most annoying things in baseball. No excuse

This is going to be one of those frustrating nights where we leave a lot of runners on. Saw that GIDP coming from a mile away. 2nd inning in a row Wieters screwed up. Can't be on every night.

We finally get to him and take the lead.

Missed opportunities is what caused this loss tonight.

Yup. And great defensive plays by the Braves

[Bang]

It ain't over yet.
Prado has played outstanding at first for the Braves

I just saw a Nats commercial about the upcoming series O's vs Nats. It said, Nats win 9-3, can the Nationals ambush Adam Jones and Matt Wieters again? Taking 1 out of 3 is ambushing us I guess

[TheDoyler23]

MRen with a 2 out, 2 strike, 2 rbi single to open the scoring!

[fullnelson9999]

This has been quite enjoyable.

1 hit shutout for Hammel!

[GhostofSparta]

So I was working and couldn't keep up with the game. 1 hit CG SO for Hammel?! Damn! Also, why was the Braves starter pulled in the 4th with only 1 run credited to him? Was he injured or something?

[chess]

Hammel may have pitched the best I have seen him pitch in years..... way to go honestly !!!
