Nationals
« Previous EntriesNationals Fans > Phillies Fans
Tuesday, February 7th, 2012The headline is a bit overblown, I’ll admit, but the blowback from the Nats’ “Take Back the Park” campaign is annoying. So, a few points for those who attempt to ridicule the Nats for having worse fans than the Phillies:
1. The Phillies have had 120-plus years to build their shitty little fanbase.
2. The Phillies have [...]
Nats Sign Another Solid Starter
Thursday, February 2nd, 2012Edwin Jackson to the Nats it is, according to Jon Heyman, and it sounds like he’s getting a one-year deal. Didn’t see that one coming.
For those unfamiliar with Jackson, he’s a solid starter who averaged about 200 innings and a 4.00 ERA over the past four seasons with the Rays, Tigers, Diamondbacks, White Sox and [...]

Nationals Sign Big-Name Reliever
Thursday, January 26th, 2012The Nats signed Brad Lidge to a one-year deal, which really isn’t a big deal. But, because Lidge has 223 saves, people have heard of him, so it kind of is. Either way, when I hear “Brad Lidge” this is all that comes to mind:
Thankfully Mr. Pujols now plies his trade in the American League.
Prince Fielder Finally Signs, Not With The Nats
Tuesday, January 24th, 2012Whoa, boy. Detroit signed Prince Fielder to a nine-year, $214 million deal, according to CBS Sports’ Jon Heyman. That’s two years and $54 million than WaPo’s Adam Kilgore speculated he’s worth. So, good.
All the best to Prince in Detroit, where his pop used to play, which is weird.

Thursday, January 19th, 2012Jamie Mottram: It’s been months, and “the Nats look like Prince Fielder favorites,” but I’m still not sure I want him on the Nats, nor do I have a good sense of what it’ll take to get him. I’m pretty sure I’m against it, though, mostly because I don’t want to sink big money into [...]
