"It's very tough. I should, in that situation, know their offense, and I couldn't hold it. But we'll be back."
(Saul Rivera, via Washington Times, 8/13/2008)
Mets 4, Nationals 3: Tatis swung! Saul Rivera plunks Easley in the eighth with the bases loaded to lose it. Hey Manny, nice to see you get fired up!
Another solid start for Odalis Perez (that's 3 in a row): Wonder if they'll be able to move him before Aug. 31?
Santana actually wins one. Nats offense good for what ails the pathetic Mets bullpen.
Meanwhile...
- The word on Crow sure doesn't sound good, but you've heard this tune before over the last couple of weeks. That is: these damn kids and their agents are making unreasonable demands! Nationals dot com says Crow is asking for $8-$10 million + a major league contract. If that's the case, we wouldn't blame Mr. Lerner if he decides not to hand over more suitcases full of cash (take the two top 10 picks next year, but just make sure you sign 'em, you
cheapgenerous bastards.) - Adam Dunn wants stupid money (via MLB Trade Rumors). Like, $100-$120 million stupid? Guess that effectively kills any chance of him coming to Washington this offseason. $100-$120 million? Good luck.
