#Nats 1B Tyler Moore will likely come off the bench and spell Bryce Harper and Adam LaRoche in LF and 1B, respectively.

What did I say about the #Nats a few years ago? "Play the kids." It's finally happening

So I've watched Harper's highlight's several times today. I am impressed and excited. That throw to home was amazing...just, wow...like wowy-wow. I know it was only one game but he looked like he belonged up here, offensively and defensively. I'm pretty sure he is up to stay.

Yeah I don't see him going back to the minors. At the plate, he looked poised, confident. In the field, he looked comfortable. I can see him moving up in the batting order before too long. Maybe by the end of the season with everyone healthy, we could see 3-4-5-6 hitters as Zim, Harper, Morse, LaRouche for a good right-left-right-left lineup.

i saw it on twitter that harper faced 16 pitches in total and 11 out of the strike zone and he swung only 1. He has a great batting eye

Harper is a beast on both sides of the ball. I hope Tyler Moore tears it up we are going to need a slugging 1rst basemen going forward.

I can't remember the last time I've been this pissed about a baseball game. Still. I can't even stomach watching the highlights. And **** Matt Kemp. I hope Gio makes him his ***** like Stras did yesterday. And **** loser Dodger fans for booing Harper.

I feel the same way.

Especially in regards to Kemp.

It was frustrating to see em lose but the future (and present) is bright. We should have Storen back and a 3-4-5-6 of Zimm, Laroche, More, Harper for the 2nd half of the season. As long as the starters stay healthy it's gonna be a fun summer. No need to stress over a game when there's still 140 to be played.

I stress over EVERY game.

I can't help it.

would you guys propose that we try moore and harper instead of ankiel and trash in LF right now til morse comes back? we got 0 production out of CF and LF right now and u saw yesterday that harper had 4 good ABs

Nobody runs on Ankiel. He isn't hitting, but fly balls result in very little drama. With the hose Harp showcased last night for the world to see, and with Werth's cannon in RF, no one will run on our OF

[skinfan2k]

ok apparently werth is out of the lineup because of a manager's decision

This. You play to win the game. Every loss sucks

And some more than others

Man, we have one guy making his second major league start and one guy making his professional debut, and took out Werth who surprisingly isn't awful at hitting so far this year. I really want a win today but that's a recipe for a tough way to get it.
