Nat's and O's - 2010 MLB Season

[InsaneBoost]

Couldn't get anything going tonight and go figure the pitcher is from Alexandria too.

Strasburg will start June 8th.

Just bought my tickets!

hell of a game by the Nats last night, fun to watch

[InsaneBoost]

That it was and LOL at my brother texting me this morning saying he's going to get some tickets for the game.

Good luck, unless you plan on paying an arm and a leg. I should have bought four, but didn't even think about him.

Really should have bought 6, then sold two for the price of the 4.

Check out the Bryce Harper article. The Nat's could be real good in a few years or less.

Yeah most people say Harper is a complete jerk, but he's too good to pass up I think.

Like what I've seen from Ian Desmond and Drew Storen so far this year (albeit limited innings so far for Storen)

If the Nats can hang in there; late summer/early fall should be exciting when hopefully we have a rotation of Strasburg, Zimmerman and Chien Ming Wang

Most 17 year old males are to some degree, he has plenty of time to turn it around.

most elite young athletes seem to be.. even just some of the "pretty good" ones

Agree to disagree I guess.

by most I mean a lot and certainly a good deal of the ones that I've met

you've probably met more but also probably in more of a professional setting

Haven't met them all in professional settings. Maybe we just have different definitions of what makes someone a total jerk.

But anyway...

Harper tossed. Could be his last college game before the Nats draft him Monday | Washington Examiner

Not saying this just b/c i'm a Braves fan, but Jason Heyward by all accounts is a all around, down to earth, good dude. Respectful of veterans, respectful to all. He's only 20.
