Atlanta Braves at Washington Nationals, Mar 30, 2008 5:05 PM PDT
Here's a fun game I was playing with someone last Friday. Without
cheating, name as many current Washington Nationals pitchers as you
can.
Teixeira '09.

Thank goodness for fantasy baseball.
Lannan
Bergmann
Hill (albeit injured)
Loaiza
Those are my best guesses.

If you're a fantasy player, and you look at the Nationals' pitching staff
you're a bad fantasy player.

I look at it.
I don't own any of them....
well, I picked up Hill a week ago to keep as a DL spot. He is good enough he might produce when healthy.

Oh, plus you need to know everyone's closers.
And when you are in deep leagues, I am in a couple, you have to find value somewhere.

That's been happening to me too
Usually only when watching games live. I have no idea why. It doesn't seem to be a blackout thing. I sent them an email but they never replied. Just another in a long series of retarded mlb.com bugs I think.

Well, trygoing to
MLB.com, go to 'Audio and Video' and click on Multimedia guide, then click on the live broadcast for the game. When I do that the log in screen comes up just fine. Unfortunately the national blackout keeps me from seeing what happens past that point, but it should work.

Well
what a nice park. I was in DC a few years ago and went to a Nats game at RFK. Not only was it a POS, but I was wearing my Ducks cap and some guy started shouting outside the Metro about Oregonians being racist and he wanted to fight me.
I hauled ass to the stadium as fast as I could.
Anyway, this stadium looked nice and a refreshing difference from the 'retro' craze.
Oh, and that game I went to a few years back, Zimmerman hit a walk off against Wang. I've liked him ever since.

This whole thing worked like a charm once you were already in the thread. So the slow loading time looks like it'll only be a one-time problem (if you're late).

My only real complaint at this point is the fact that comments stop threading at a certain point.
It would be awesome if this were fixed before the game.
But besides that, I gotta agree with Jeff, it's handling things much better than expected so far.
Also, I just noticed that you guys have added a post button, allowing us to skip the preview. Awesome! You guys rock.
