Note: she _did_ already know that Werth is hitting terribly and had a huge contract, but she couldn't see how that related to the booing and thought the booing would make him perform worse.<br /><br />She said: the people that boo either want to see him fail, or else they just want to feel good about themselves when he does fail.<br /><br />(Hey, I know enough not to argue such things with her.

Power and average, position flexibility, control going forward.</i><br /><br />There's no one else like him in the minors or on the current 25 man to replace him with? No one else is even close to hitting .300? Espinosa is now in a 3 for 25 or 25 slump and his average has dropped. Werth has been in a season long drought. <br /><br />Morse is close to untouchable this year. It might be different in the offseason. If he decides to forego arbitration the Nats would get 2 draft picks when he is resigned. He is now listed a an "A". I suspect they resign him to a contract and he plays left field next year until they can work out a trade for LaRoche.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-15287203540040688832011-07-27T14:44:52.706-04:002011-07-27T14:44:52.706-04:00Gomes' Pops was a big Jonny Quest fan...Gomes' Pops was a big Jonny Quest fan...UnkyDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10427401050130317607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-8673516625353372432011-07-27T14:44:52.145-04:002011-07-27T14:44:52.145-04:00Scoohter said...
