After attending Saturday'...Starting the 2nd half<br />After attending Saturday's blowout 13-1 win and Sunday's tense 3-2 victory in 10 innings, I am thinking about where this team is headed after so many disappointments.<br /><br />On the plus side it now has taken 2 series out of 3 since the All-Star break! Maybe there is something genuine about a change of attitude here. Extra inning game here-to-fore have been embarrassing losses.<br /><br />We can just think positive and put together of wins and hope for the emergence of this promising young pitching staff. Now that would more than make up for so much of the pain felt thus far.donthefanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15074881414617696429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676208.post-41030747086152970432009-07-27T13:43:23.730-04:002009-07-27T13:43:23.730-04:00T.

Brewers now in NL Central, and bet on FLOP being with still another team next season. Dunn alludes to Milwaukee and Pittsburgh as tough places with great teams - I do not agree with the big lug - but, I love his clutch hitting, homers and singles with runners on. I wish he could give some of what he is drinking to Nick Johnson, who is having a miraculous year for someone with his injury-past, but is just not hitting with runners on base.<br /><br />Nats hitting .262 - compared to aenimic Padres, they really look like they should win more than they do. If I were Riggles, I would play Nieves regularly and Hernandez or Gonzalez at second regularly, since the Nats fare better with good defense up the middle: this should be the standard line-up:<br /><br />1. Morgan CF<br />2. Guz SS<br />3. Zimmerman 3B<br />4. Dunn LF<br />5. Williamham RF<br />6. Johnson 1B<br />7. Nieves C<br />8. Gonzalez 2B<br /><br />Trust in all the young guns. And aim for the plate. All better.SenatorNathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10049860385485455410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676208.post-65956624446105220722009-07-27T06:12:13.255-04:002009-07-27T06:12:13.255-04:00You're welcome!
