Hudson

Fredi does that and we are NL East Champs!
 
Based on the probables listed currently, it seems like this will be the rotational sequence, at least to begin the second-half: Hudson, Maholm, Minor, Teheran, Medlen.

I was gonna ask why two of the worst hitters 1 and 2, but then I looked at 6-8. I would start with Freeman, Upton, McCann 3-5 in that order, seperating the lefties. Then from there:

Heyward
Uggla
Freeman
Upton
McCann
Gattis/Upton
Johnson
Simmons

WHy on earth would Hudson lead off the rotation? Experience? He's the 4th or 5th best starter on the team.
 
There are times that luck doesn't even out. But, the chances of that regression not happening over the course of 162 are slim.
 
We got some good luck once again with missing the other teams aces, as we miss Harvey in our upcoming 4 game series with the Mets. While we missed Kershaw twice, Nats will be facing him for the 2nd time this upcoming series along with Greinke and Nolasco.

Maybe he just wanted to get it "right", since he's already been announced as Friday's starter.
