Luke Erickson's biggest complaint about him was the same as with Marerro: defense. Both players have improved dramatically in that area.<br /><br />And Corey Brown? .300 -> 17 homers/6 triples/15 doubles. He and Carlos Rivero both extend their hitting streaks in tonight's 4-3 loss. Blown save by Erik Arneson.

Some of the positive folks here though tend to traffic in the same disdain and insults that some of the negative ones do. To me there's little difference. <br /><br />Given the huge difference that the cortisone shot made for Zim, I'd love to know why he didn't get it earlier. Did the pain in his shoulder just not seem bad enough, or was he not telling anyone about it? <br /><br />I just watched a replay of the Harper steal in the first inning. Someone here was complaining about the second baseman pretending that he had the ball as Harper came in to second. But he wasn't trying to fool the umpire (though Angel H., is pretty easily fooled, see the neighborhood play). Rather, he was trying to decoy Harper into staying at second rather than taking third on the throwing error. There's nothing wrong with that at all. That's heads up baseball. <br /><br />Someone was giving props to a Russ Adams in Harrisburg for touting TyMo. Once again, a tip of the cap to peric on that one. That guy is making it very hard for Davey to put him back on the bench. Davey is smart enough to realize that he deserves a shot against RH starters, rather than assuming he's a platoon player. I'll be happy to see TyMo instead of Lombo against RH pitchers for awhile. He's got pop!Section 222https://www.blogger.com/profile/17106128453333996193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-48984660590231202642012-06-28T00:47:11.744-04:002012-06-28T00:47:11.744-04:00First place on June 28th, o my goodness!

Third best in the majors. <br /><br />But there's still the 2005 albatross of collapse hurdle to overcome. That starts after the All Star break. Now, the trick is to increase the lead to 10 games ... trying for 20 ... and you beat NL East teams to accomplish that. And that starts happening after this series ...perichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02669200119049715758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-85753916835684321352012-06-28T00:43:53.091-04:002012-06-28T00:43:53.091-04:00So, I go on the road and the Nats' bats go cra...So, I go on the road and the Nats' bats go crazy. Went to a sports bar to see the game, and get there in the bottom of the 4th and it's already over? Eck, how you mock me! (I must say that when I got to the bar and saw the score, I had to make sure JZ was still in the game. I thought it was very likely he fainted after the 4th run, and almost certainly after the 9th!)<br /><br />Ok, another sip of koolaid...<br /><br />So nice to see that our big bats, and a new one to boot, are heating up. Here's hoping that they keep it up. <br /><br />TyMo definitely impresses so far, even with the small sample size. Quite a few people have seen him in MiLB and ST that liked his swing, and from what I have seen, there's not much to dislike about his approach either. And he has <i> just a little </i> pop. Hope Rizzo can find a way to make sure he sticks around. <br /><br />Wang vs. Detwiler? meh. Not worth my time to think about our #5 guy right now. Rotation decisions become more important as Stras' shutdown date looms. But we have a wealth of pitchers. Maybe it ends up being Gorzy, or Lannan, or [insert this year's Peacock/Milone here]??? After all, depending on how many innings they let Stras pitch, we will have expanded rosters by that time. Let the season play out.<br /><br />So, after a disheartening loss, that's two in a row, in grand style. Still in first place, and now with hitting. Will miss tomorrow's game, but I would be just fine with missing another Nats outburst as I am with missing Nyjer's.<br /><br />ZING!<br /><br />GYFNG!ehay2khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16441654620820540390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-78563060776427254722012-06-28T00:42:14.044-04:002012-06-28T00:42:14.044-04:00It also hurts, while they are searching for the sp...<i>It also hurts, while they are searching for the spot and the while the shoot you.</i><br /><br />Morbidity risk is also quite high.
