Go Nats!

Let the Post Season begin!

Okay, not yet. But soon.

The Washington Nationals have clinched a playoff spot in the post season. YAY!

That means that many former Syracuse Chiefs -- our boys of summer -- will be playing baseball in the fall.

In Town With Corey Brown

As predicted -- no, expected -- Cory Brown was called up to Washington on Tuesday.

The Nats played the Cubs this week, and in one game, there were two bench-clearing incidents.

Guess who showed up in one of the photos?

Call Up

Zach Duke (who was scheduled to pitch in Syracuse yesterday) and Christian Garcia (who did pitch in Syracuse yesterday -- top of the 9th) have both been called to Washington.

The next couple of days are going to be interesting.

Deleting FB, Twitter by the Team?

I follow many of the Washington Nationals players on Twitter and Facebook. Just found a message on one players fan club page:

Hey all, just letting you know that XYZ has had to delete his facebook and twitter accounts per instructions of the Nationals. It was a decision across the organization.


Wow. That's pretty extreme.
