It's Nut Cutting Time

As Vince Papale once said to me, it's that time.

First Positive: "PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- Catcher Paul Lo Duca played his first exhibition game for the Nationals on Friday and went 1-for-3 in an 8-2 loss to the Mets, the team he played for the last two years. He also threw out shortstop Jose Reyes trying to steal third base." - Sheinin

First negative: Estarda not to start season healthy. Wily Mo also MIA. Pencil in Nieves? for Estarda? Flores is better. But the consensus is Harrisburg for the rising star Flores....But honestly, how old is Nieves?

Pitching Rotation: Serious NUT CUT: Patterson gone...DUE MORE MONEY JIMBO!

I see us getting outs like this from the starters: (Best Spring ERAs)

Bergmann 2.45
Redding 2.85
Chico 3.50
Perez 5.23
Hill....in a week or so Healthy!
Hanrahan 7 games, 10.2 inn., 0 runs, 2 hits, 13 strikeouts,
0.00 ERA THIS SPRING! Nobody is talking about him, but
I think he's a 5th starter right now


The Future!:

Smoker
Detwiler
Balester
Mock
Lannan
Clippard & more.....!
