Our Newcastle stand, while not my favorite, will do just fine since there is hardly ever a line and its a decent ale. I did like a couple of the beers at the Red Porch but for those prices I can get as good a beer, if not better at Justin's before the game. still made for interesting reading.<br /><br />Win tonight and we win a series!!<br /><br />Go Nats!!sjm308https://www.blogger.com/profile/01236550495879254916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-53583311552592605782013-06-06T13:47:00.118-04:002013-06-06T13:47:00.118-04:00Well, maybe not ready, exactly, but it certainly s...Well, maybe not ready, exactly, but it certainly seems likely to be in his future.blovy8https://www.blogger.com/profile/06888192019412533415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-50080834380230475412013-06-06T13:46:24.650-04:002013-06-06T13:46:24.650-04:00It'll be a pitcher who's ready to have sur...It'll be a pitcher who's ready to have surgery.blovy8https://www.blogger.com/profile/06888192019412533415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-35591858754538940072013-06-06T12:44:37.880-04:002013-06-06T12:44:37.880-04:00Based on past practice, would guess that the Nats ...Based on past practice, would guess that the Nats will draft a highly regarded player that has dropped due to signability concerns. The Nats will then draft a bunch of players that they can sign below slot - so they can use their limited amount of draft money to sign one highly regarded player. Rizzo gets that teams win with elite players; if the Nats have an angle on elite player they will do their best to get him despite the lack of an early pick.

You never know though, you could find a diamond in the rough which everyone has whiffed on. It's happened before.<br /><br /> The better opportunity for the Nats is to find top of the line players internationally. I don't think we've been very strong in that regard.JDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10464376699196421043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-54354437932412451672013-06-06T11:55:16.456-04:002013-06-06T11:55:16.456-04:00Ghost,

He may be a late bloomer but I am not sold on his top notch prospect status.<br /><br /> Goodwin is scuffling a bit at AA which is really a tough level to graduate from but he does have an OBP of .351 with some pop and he's only 22.JDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10464376699196421043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-73881370514247548852013-06-06T11:30:25.853-04:002013-06-06T11:30:25.853-04:00For all you beer drinking Nats fans, Steinberg pos...For all you beer drinking Nats fans, <a href="http://thenationalsreview.com/2013/06/05/the-nationals-park-beer-guide/" rel="nofollow">Steinberg posted this link</a> to an awesome map of where you can buy different beers at the park.
