April 19, 200917 yr ....were officially eliminated from the playoffs today with their loss to Florida. Carry on. Not really, but they might as well be.
April 19, 200917 yr Serves them right for benching one of their best players after showing up 5 minutes late because he was at a charity event representing them. He was fined as well. They are already 9 games out of first. :lol: Edited April 19, 200917 yr by HammerTime
April 19, 200917 yr Serves them right for benching one of their best players after showing up 5 minutes late because he was at a charity event representing them. He was fined as well. They are already more than 10 games out of first. :lol: Ouch, whats happening in D.C.? Sounds like they might want to clean house from the looks of things...
April 19, 200917 yr I've said all along it can be tough to be a REDS fan but I couldn't imagine being a Nationals fan. They are all Reds rejects! Dimetri Young, Willie Mo Pena, Dunn, Kearns etc There is like 8 or so of them I think. They have been playing better. They have also played a tough schedule thuse far. Don't get me wrong they are the worst team in baseball I think.
April 20, 200917 yr Did I hear/read today that they blew their 3rd consecutive lead in the 9th? Yes, and their manager said that there would be some new faces in their bullpen tomorrow.
April 20, 200917 yr They were eliminated as soon as they left spring training. Remember when the Expos were at least competitive in the early 90s.

April 20, 200917 yr According to ESPN it was an event that was not sponsored by the Nationals. The first article I read about it said it was, but that was early this morning. Might have had some bad info. Makes a little more sense if that is the case.
April 20, 200917 yr They were eliminated as soon as they left spring training. Remember when the Expos were at least competitive in the early 90s. The Expos might have won a world series in 94 if it wasn't for the strike. That teams was loaded.

Don't get me wrong they are the worst team in baseball I think. Jim Bowden takes another team down. Stan Kasten needs to have a little time to purge Bowden's mistakes out and build a farm system where they will have players comming up. They will be bad for two or three years but if they get the right personnel in the front office and farm system they may contend in three or four years.
April 21, 200917 yr The Little League is going to pay the $500 fine. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=4085478 Poor effort by the Nationals. With management like this, it's no wonder they're terrible.
