    Yet thats no big deal.
    The Nats announcers make me like Hawk Harrelson.

    You guys are crazy if you think this is over.

    The Phillies might give us a strong run.

    Whats going to happen when Minor replaces Hale in the rotation? I still just can't get over that we are the second youngest team in baseball.

    Hale to pen.

    Roto: Santana, Minor, Wood, Julio, Harang.

    Forgot we had Floyd too, tough decisions

    I'd think Hale would go to AAA and start so he could be ready in case of injury to step into the rotation.

    We of all fan bases should know there's no such thing as too much pitching. Harang may be a pumpkin, but if he keeps this up, he's going to make it tough to take him out of the rotation.

    I'd normally agree with you but with the uncertainty around Gus and Vavaro you have to put him in the pen.

    They will take their time with Floyd if Harang continues to pitch well.

    Yeah, probably, he's better suited for the bullpen though.

    Great to sweep the Nationals, we really could've and should've both series. They played terrible the last two games, and we're clearly in their heads. They gave us a real battle Friday and still lost, that is a game they thought they'd stolen after the Uggla error followed by a three-run homer. But thanks a lot to a red hot Justin Upton we took it right back. Justin is on one of those hot streaks like last April where he carries a team.

    Also, good to see some life from BJ Upton the last few too. But I will need to see more to believe Chipper has fixed him.

    That's what I expect, they'll just take their time with Floyd while Harang is pitching well.

    He is fine as a starter, though anyone pitching to Doumit won't look as good (such as his last start, not to mention Doumit inability to throw). But I agree we have a need in the bullpen he could fill better once Minor and/or Floyd are ready. Schlosser just hasn't looked as good of late, Hale could replace him in the bullpen.

    Too much pitching. But as they say these things have a way of taking care of themselves.

    What's it gonna take or what do we have to do in order for JUp to play like this consistently?

    I mean, you can't expect him to continue to be on the tear he is now, but how he can go from looking like one of the elite power guys in the game to a guy that consistently swings and misses at cookies down the middle of the plate is baffling.
