Treinen gets final bullpen spot, Heisey will be right-handed pinch-hitter
Right-hander Blake Treinen has secured the final spot in the Nationals bullpen, while veteran Chris Heisey has claimed a role as a backup outfielder and right-handed pinch-hitter. After Friday night's 4-3 win in an exhibition game against the Twins at Nationals Park, the Nats made a series of roster moves that finalized the composition of manager Dusty Baker's seven-man bullpen and made the bench picture much clearer. Outfielder Matt den Dekker and right-hander Trevor Gott were optioned to...

Nationals lineup vs. Twins (with Twins lineup)
The Nationals are stretching in right field, Dusty Baker is about to address the media and fans are already lining up at the center field gates at Nationals Park. Who cares if it's a meaningless exhibition game? It's baseball and that's what counts. We'll have to see if the weather gods will cooperate to allow the first of two exhibition scraps against the Minnesota Twins to be played tonight. Earlier in the week, it was supposed to rain most of today; the current forecast for tonight's...

A few words about the Space Coast - go-tos, to-gos and friends who'll be missed

A few words about the Space Coast - go-tos, to-gos and friends who'll be missed
Earlier this morning, on the day of the final scheduled Nationals game at Space Coast Stadium, my colleague Mark Zuckerman penned a thoughtful farewell to Viera. I'd like to add a few comments about the community that has been the Nationals' spring training home since 2005, one that has welcomed both fans and media members with open arms. Saying goodbye is difficult. Whether it was reporters making the Space Coast their home away from home for six or seven weeks as winter morphed into spring...

Remembering the Orioles' trip to Havana and what's happened since

Remembering the Orioles' trip to Havana and what's happened since
This week's exhibition game in Havana between the Tampa Bay Rays and the Cuban National Team is another example of baseball being used as a positive step forward in the thaw of diplomatic relations between the United States and the island nation. During much of the media coverage of Tuesday's game, it was noted that the last Major League Baseball team to play in Cuba was the Orioles, who traveled to Havana for the first game in a home-and-home series with the Cuban National Team 17 year...

Introducing our Nationals guest blogger lineup for 2016
Back in 2005, when the Nationals arrived from Montreal, they filled a tremendous void in Washington, D.C. Generations of fans who had not had a team to call their own suddenly did, parents could take their children to games and a new crop of baseball fans was born. So was a new kind of fan - those with keyboards at their disposal and opinions that flowed like frosty beer at the Red Porch. Fervent Nationals fans descended upon the blogosphere in numbers that made other baseball towns envious....
