Nats fan, how are you feeling this morning knowing that Bowden has re-assembled a team that went nowhere the first time around in Cincinnati!?? What in the wide world of sports is going on here? How has ESPN not picked up on this story? Wouldn't every sports fan rather hear about a crazed GM that might be the most stubborn person in the world as opposed to the 9,542nd story about steroids? This is incredible to me that Bowden is being allowed to do this. No Pokey Reese on this team? Can the Nats pick up Barry Larkin? Let's pull the Mayor out of retirement! I might become a Nats fan this season just for nostalgic purposes.Kennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11862175017463190415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19884649.post-53545433697021383682009-02-11T21:26:00.000-06:002009-02-11T21:26:00.000-06:00As a Reds fan I could not be happier that Dunn is ...As a Reds fan I could not be happier that Dunn is gone. You mention old school fans not liking him, but no one liked him. <BR/><BR/>Here is what Nats fans have to look forward to:<BR/><BR/>Dunn arrives at training camp fat and lazy. There is a decent chance he hasnt worked out since he was last seen loafing for a ball.<BR/><BR/>If there is a man on base when he is batting you can count on a strike out. This is a guy who went almost two full seasons without a sac fly. <BR/><BR/>If your team is down 11-2 because Eric Milton started that day Dunn will hit a homerun, two homeruns or maybe a grand slam.<BR/><BR/>Your manager will never know what position in the order to bat Dunn so he will hit anywhere from leadoff to 8th. This isnt Dunn's fault but it drove me crazy.<BR/><BR/>If he happens to be playing left and the ball is more than two steps either way you may as well start watching the hitter leg out his triple. <BR/><BR/>Also 10M isnt a bad deal but The Nats are going nowhere so why waste the money? Put it in the farm system or something. <BR/><BR/>Of course when Jim Bowden is running your team you can expect these kinds of things.Stanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14857200804060489663noreply@blogger.com
