Maybe he can explain away the SP as being too pricey or not being much of a need IF Wang and or Lannan is reliable, but those are big ifs. But for the bench, our catching has stunk and Stoppach, Torrealba, Kottaras all could have been got at C, along with a number of middle infield guys without breaking the bank. Mark DeRosa is really going to play a ton over the next 2 months? The nice club house chemistry might get spoiled to the core if the Nats end up missing out on the Division title and potentially a Wild CArd spot, because they lacked a quality bench guy or two. Not sure I understand how Rizzo thinks the club's roster did not need any adjustment. <br /><br />dfh21Donhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08533703303439123333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-5623776121179346562012-08-01T12:16:57.021-04:002012-08-01T12:16:57.021-04:00I can shed some light on the pitchers' hitting...I can shed some light on the pitchers' hitting situation. I heard a long interview with McCatty - always entertaining. He said that he is an AL guy, doesn't know about hitting , doesn't want to know, wishes the guys would get over it. He said that they want to hit every day, but he only allows every other day and it's Randy Knorr that works with them. Mark - perhaps it would be nice to know something about this quiet coach in the background that has coached so many of our guys in the minors. What does he do ? What is his role? Seems like he really means something to the younger guys.baseballswamihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03473384422940931212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-79033952738789924382012-08-01T12:07:46.788-04:002012-08-01T12:07:46.788-04:00Not-so-serious question, when will FP be on camera...Not-so-serious question, when will FP be on camera sporting the shark hat he talked about in the middle innings of last night's game?

I am pretty sure Strasburg will still be pitching in early Sept but not in the playoffs. Do we option him to the minors, create an injury? what happens with that.

In the world of crazy coincidences, JZim in 2011 had his 21st start on July 31 and Stras had his 21st start on July 31st and both would have a 3.12 ERA on that day.<br /><br />They both also had a 2.82 ERA on their 17th starts in their comeback TJ seasons.<br /><br />If Stras continues to follow JZim's 2011, expect one more shutout and 2 more 2 run performances aif the baseball gods cooperate. <br /><br />August 01, 2012 11:19 AM <br />__________________________________<br /><br />Interesting. What I also noticed was JZim pitched 11 innings more last year at this time than Stras has done in the same amount of games this year. <br /><br />JZim's season in 2011 ended on August 28th. Strasburg's season may go into mid-September if they stop him at 160 innings.Gonathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05622413303529086490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-53100586322648600202012-08-01T11:45:59.208-04:002012-08-01T11:45:59.208-04:00Mark,
