One of the worst players in the majors. Ugh!<br /><br />Stammen's performance has been very dispiriting because he's the kind of guy we're supposed to be able to trade for RF talent. Likewise, if he's good then we can hope to trade guys like Olsen, Livo, Marquis, or Wang if they actually pitch well this year. <br />------------<br />I think Bergmann goes down because sometimes you just have to cut bait with these guys. I think that JD Martin deserves a shot at this point because if nothing else he won't be embarassed with walks. For me the defining moment of last night's outing was when Stammen gave up a walk with a 3-0 lead after being ahead 0-2. Throw a meatball. Gently place it in the catcher's mitt. I don't care. But don't walk a guy with the lead after your undermanned lineup shows up.<br /><br />That says that the rest of the rotation needs a message that we value control of the strike zone. JD Martin doesn't get hurt with walks and should retain the Strasburg slot as long as he doesn't walk people I don't care if his ERA goes to 6.00.Souldrummernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-70760531208416000792010-04-15T10:05:11.830-04:002010-04-15T10:05:11.830-04:00This team is desperate so the Syracuse shuttle hea...This team is desperate so the Syracuse shuttle heats up as dead beats go down to be replaced by equally bad dead beats. That's the pathetic solution to this mess. When do we see Logan Kensing and Marco Estrada? The Nats are worse than last year. The starting pitching is just as bad, the relief pitching has not improved and the hitting is much worse. I never thought I would say this but, sadly, Austin Kearns would be an upgrade in right field and Bowden would be an upgrade from Rizzo.phil dunnnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-28422296498169755162010-04-15T09:44:44.612-04:002010-04-15T09:44:44.612-04:00I agree Bergmann needs to go down, if he clear wai...I agree Bergmann needs to go down, if he clear waivers fine.
