Ozzie cost us 6 runs tonight. Starting Timo at 1st base and letting Kevin Walker start an inning and letting Vizcaino finish it. This was Timo's first career game at 1st base and both Walk-er and Jizzcan suck ass.
So even though Harris' minor league numbers are very good and he was 3 for 9 with 1 HR and 3 RBI's with the Nationals, just because he was demoted so they could bring up Wil Cordero, Harris sucks?
I refuse to believe anyone could be that stupid.
Brendan Harris was never a Mariner. By the way, he has done awesome in the minors...

And just because he was a 5th round pick means he can't be good? Buehrle was a 38th round pick.
I don't think Nitetrain knows that the Nationals have 3rd baseman prospect Brendan Harris, whom they got in the Orlando Cabrera trade of last season, waiting in the wings. :rolly
Yeah, cuz we know that the Nationals could never afford to trade a 37 year old who is one of their "franchise players" for prospects if they fall out of contention even though they have Brendan Harris waiting in the wings.
Do you ever use common sense? :headshake
Confirmed by ESPN 1000:
* Timo at 1st base.
* Willie at 2nd base.
* Everett at DH.
Ozzie wants to get as many lefties in the lineup against Byrd as possible. Timo at 1st base? :puke
I don't think so. I heard that Timo has been fielding grounders at 1st base once Gload was put on the DL. I can understand wanting to get as many lefties in the lineup as possible against Byrd but Timo at 1st base? If this is true, Ozzie is enacting some Manuel-esque tinkering of massive proportions.
