Nats 2013 Regular Season Thread

Stras looks livid in the dugout. No idea what's wrong, but he and Davy don't look happy with one another.

Stammen pitches a good 3rd. Still 2-1 Nats.

Any idea what happened to Strasburg? Sucks that he could be hurt again. Hopefully not too bad

Nothing but speculation. Julie Alexandria is in the Nats dugout as the sideline reporter, but she is showing her worth and has not said a word. She is awful.

Julie Alexandria says still no official word on what's wrong with Strasburg.

Was wondering if y'all were hearing anything from your end. He looked like he wanted to go back in but looked really uncomfortable out there.

Since the Nats aren't giving any info, all the news outlets are running with the "apparent shoulder problem" story-line, whether it's true or not. It's probably what it is, but it's a shot-in-the-dark guess at this point.

Lol, Dany out when his bunt hits him on his way to first. Talk about a slump...

I was thinking it may be a dehydration and muscle tightness issue the way he kept flexing and stretching his shoulders. In the past it seems like the heat down here bothers him to an extent.

Reporters seem to be dismissing any talk of heat related issues so far. To be fair, though, I don't think they really know anything in order to be able to dismiss anything. If he can't handle an 82 degree game-time temp, though, he may as well retire. It's not like it's chilly in DC during the summer.

rendon.

rendon.

Does he play 2nd? I know he probably could, but I don't want him learning a new position in the majors. Though really, couldn't be any worse at this point.

Yeoman's work by Stammen...9 up, 9 down in relief of the injured Strasburg.

Span leads off the 6th with another triple.
