Also, LF is his comfort zone not RF. He should have been back at the wall on that triple in the first inning and caught it and instead he slowed up for a split second which caused him not to be there. Yes, it was a tough play but again if he was positioned properly he should have been there.<br /><br />The team may lose some power with Bernadina in RF but you gain so much in RF defense. I truly believe Bernadina makes both key plays that Willie missed.<br /><br />Bernadina made a similar play at the wall in CF and made the catch.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-12709288263372722082010-05-18T15:36:05.525-04:002010-05-18T15:36:05.525-04:00Ramirez had a tiff with his skipper in Florida.Ramirez had a tiff with his skipper in Florida.natsfan1anoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-235550523411666232010-05-18T15:35:00.457-04:002010-05-18T15:35:00.457-04:00natsfan1a = natsfan1a

The absolute biggest media event for the Nats this year will be his debut. There is no way that day will be on the road - absolutely none. Having his first two starts at home against teams that might not have crowds of 20,000 without him pitching will pay for a lot of his signing bonus. That day also will give him five of his seven pre-All Star game starts at home in a five man rotation schedule.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-22741548280000088332010-05-18T13:14:07.349-04:002010-05-18T13:14:07.349-04:00JayB, you're right Bernadina is not a corner O...JayB, you're right Bernadina is not a corner OF, he is a CF. But in order to see if he can hit at this level, that is where he has to play and he has to play a lot. If he does hit, he can either be traded or play CF and allow Morgan to be traded. At some point you have to let it go, the RF situation is a liability, no denying it.alexvahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16607068733172426326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-1373205470714980322010-05-18T13:09:50.943-04:002010-05-18T13:09:50.943-04:00How long can Rizzo afford to keep up this facade t...<i>How long can Rizzo afford to keep up this facade that all is well in the OF?</i><br /><br />Probably until Michael Burgess ready and why not? It takes a month or two to consummate a trade as we have heard both JimBo and Mike Rizzo state? You have to be ready to give up something valuable to get something valuable in exchange. What do they have? They would have to give up either an Dunn or a Willingham to get say a BJ Upton. Someone Mike Rizzo and team did look into acquiring.<br /><br />Its not that easy to accomplish.

The RF is an issue, but I think it is fair to give Bernadina that shot. I would expect Rizzo to address it before the trade deadline or in the offseason if no one in the organization will earn it. I am curious to see what Bernadina can do, after being injured all last season. So far I am liking what I am seeing but the critical point for Bernadina is to see what happens after the hot streak.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-168353573429814872010-05-18T11:50:43.901-04:002010-05-18T11:50:43.901-04:00Mark,

More specifically, in San Diego (his home town) on the 30th.<br /><br />Pitching him on that day would put him in line with a June 4th start to begin the home stand. It will also mean that he would have a maximum of 127 days of service time. After doing some research and learning that no player has ever been awarded Super-Two status after having been in the majors for less than 130 days (with only 3 having been given the status with 2 years 130 days service time), May 30th becomes a very real possibility.Kenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11021420959564812072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-58304039882995732872010-05-18T11:33:58.888-04:002010-05-18T11:33:58.888-04:00Probably won't happen Natsfan...to soon - not ...Probably won't happen Natsfan...to soon - not june.
