Since moving from Montreal to the nation’s capital for the 2005 season, the Washington Nationals have finished out of the NL East cellar just once in six seasons.
The Nationals hope to begin climbing up the ladder in the East this season. A 10-win improvement in 2010 followed back-to-back 59-victory seasons, and Washington hopes to move closer to .500 in 2011. (Read More…)

The Washington Nationals announced that Rob Dibble will no longer by a TV analyst for its games on MASN.
Dibble made ridiculous comments that Stephen Strasburg needed to man up and stop asking the manager and trainer to come out and get him. This was all before it was revealed that Strasburg needed Tommy John surgery, but stupid comments nonetheless.

Former top prospect Mark Prior knows exactly what Washington Nationals pitcher Stephen Strasburg is going through.
Prior said that it was obvious it was going to be bad news when the Nationals wanted him to have a second MRI.
From going through all of that many times before, Prior said the second MRI is simply to confirm the bad news of the first one.
Prior, who is now pitching in an independent league, said that the hoopla surrounding Strasburg has been way over the top. (Read More…)

It is the worst fears of the Washington Nationals come true: the MRI results of their top young pitcher are in, and it’s not good news.
Stephen Strasburg, who grabbed the attention of the baseball world with his 100 mph fastball and powerful changeup, will miss at least the next 12 months with a tear of the ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow. (Read More…)

The rest of the phenom’s rookie season? That remains to be seen.

Whether or not Stephen Strasburg’s rookie season is over after 12 starts remains to be seen.
What can be said with certainty is the scene of the Washington Nationals’ rookie phenom shaking his pitching arm after a fifth-inning delivery, then walking off the field, was far from comforting. (Read More…)

The numbers from his last start out looked more like what we expect from Stephen Strasburg.
The Washington Nationals’ rookie sensation looked much sharper Sunday in his second start following his three-week stay on the disabled list for shoulder stiffness. Strasburg fanned seven hitting and did not walk a batter in five innings, allowing just one run while taking a no-decision in Washington’s 5-3 home victory over Arizona. (Read More…)

The Washington Nationals have placed pitching phenom Stephen Strasburg on the disabled list.
Strasburg experienced tightness in his shoulder while trying to warm up in the bullpen for his latest start.
The team scratched him from his schedule start and had him undergo an MRI and X-rays, both of which came back negative.
The Nationals want to exercise extreme caution with their prized young right-hander, and he already had an innings limit anyway. (Read More…)
