By Bud L. Ellis

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.

Nationals’ phenom leaves start after suffering injury

By Bud L. Ellis

Whether or not Stephen Strasburg’s rookie season is over after 12 starts remains to be seen.

Strasburg sharp in second outing back from DL

By Bud L. Ellis

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…)

Nats take no chances, scratch Strasburg

By Bud L. Ellis

The Washington Nationals have experienced a huge bump in attention and buzz thanks to Stephen Strasburg. There was no way the Nats’ brass was going to take any chances with their rookie sensation.

That’s why it was Miguel Batista, and not the No. 1 overall pick from last year’s draft, delivering the first pitch Tuesday against Atlanta at Nationals Park. Strasburg was scratched from his scheduled start after experiencing shoulder stiffness while warming up in the bullpen. (Read More…)

By Bud L. Ellis

Josh Willingham’s three-run double came at just the right time for Stephen Strasburg and the Washington Nationals Friday night.
