Is the game in D.C.? If so, the O's are dead meat.

The reason I say this, is the Nats have lost their last 3 series. I might be wrong ( just making an assumption, please correct me if I am) and they'll take it out in their ball-park with our dismal hitting against the O's. I don't see the O's winning this series. Reynolds really needs to step his game up, he's unperformed thus far, and his strikeouts are unacceptable.

Maybe CALABRAMS should admit that he's a Nationals fan and stop posting here, pretending to be the village idiot.

All I know is that Harper was pretty tame the first time around. In fact if I recall Jim Johnson totally used him on a first pitch pop up to the shallow outfield in the last of the 9th in one of the games. For all I know he might tear the cover off the ball this weekend, but that wasn't the trend in the first series.

We took 2 out of 3 in their park last month, I see no reason we can't take 2 of the upcoming games at home or maybe all three! Our bats have to wake up at some point, why not now. I predict a sweep!! based purely on optimism and faith and absolutely no research!

Also, FYI, CALABRAMS, Weiters threw out Harper at least once in the series last month. A perfect throw will get almost anyone, and Weiters makes a lot of perfect throws.

Keep in mind that in CALABRAMS' view Harper is so good that his mere presence in the ballpark might throw the opposition off.

LOL! Good point! I don't know why I try to reason with that guy...? I had him on ignore for a while but he's kind of like a train wreck or a multi-car accident, you know it's going to be ugly and possibly even horrifying, but you have to look...

On the plus side, the pitching matchups for this next series are much more favorable than vs. the top of the Mets rotation. No Strasberg, and Zimmerman looks hittable, even by us.

Enjoy your weekend at the Yards! I miss going. I used to go down to OPACY 3 or 4 times a year, but in 2009 I bought the company I was working for, so now I get NO time off!! I don't know what I was thinking...

He doesn't seem to understand stats at all or he would realize Harper has only stole 4 bases and been caught 3. If he's getting himself out on the bases that much I'd welcome him to try to steal.

My feelings exactly! I welcome anyone to try to steal on Weiters, it's fun to watch him throw them out. You've probably all seen this, but if you haven't, go to YouTube and type in Golden glove and gun of Matt Weiters, it's pretty cool. Also see; 2011 all star Matt Weiters, they both have some great stuff in them, I especially love the "what the h*** did I just hit!?" look on BJ Uptons face at the end of the first video, it's priceless.
