When do they announce these things? Seems like almost a lock it gets rained out tonight.

Of course I have tickets tonight, so they wont call the game until a 3 hour delay.

It will be so awesome when they try to squeeze this in and Strasburg pitches 1.5 innings before a 2 hour delay.

This is why I'm an O's fan. I try to do something nice for you assholes by showing up to a game, and you repay me by sending down the wrath of Thor.

This reminds me, do they sell "NATITUDE" t-shirts anywhere? I've looked but can't find any, but then again I'm not an interwebs master.

Klaw's latest mock still has us taking Wacha
16. Washington Nationals
Michael Wacha, RHP, Texas A&M
The dream scenario for the Nats is if Wacha or Heaney falls to here. Wacha's ceiling is limited, but his advanced changeup makes him a likely big leaguer.

Earlier this season Wacha seemed like a lock to go in the top 10, but doubts about his breaking ball have slid him down to the second tier of college starters. Wacha has most of the elements you'd want in a starting pitcher -- above-average fastball at 90-95, an out pitch in the plus changeup, command, control and a track record of durability.
What he does not have is an average third pitch, with a below-average slider in the low 80s lacking any kind of tilt or break. Wacha's arm is quick and he has no trouble repeating his clean delivery, so the question is whether he has the laxity in his wrist to put some spin on a slider, curveball or even a good cutter, raising his ceiling from that of a No. 3 or No. 4 to at least a solid No. 2.

Heaney established himself as the top college lefty in the draft this year largely through his performance, leading Division I in punchouts while showing average to above-average stuff across the board.
He works from just under a three-quarters arm slot and sits 89-92, occasionally reaching 94, with some tailing action, and he's aggressive with the fastball to both sides of the plate. He throws a big, two-plane breaking ball at 78-81, like a hard slurve, and will throw several in a row to try to set up a fastball against left-handed batters. His changeup is solid-average at 79-82, although he can slow his arm almost imperceptibly when throwing it, something major league hitters should pick up. Heaney's not a projection guy and there are concerns about his slight frame remaining durable in the long term, although his arm action is clean and fairly compact.
He has a mid-rotation starter's upside, maybe more of a 180-inning guy than a 200-inning guy, but with an above league-average ceiling.

That's just dumb.
When you're good, if you hit on one of these pitchers, you trade them a year or two down the line for a superstar some team is dumping.

I guess we figured swapping Lombo in for Nady would result in anti-competitive sanctions.

All we need is for Morse to hit a homer and for Stras to get through 5 without giving up a run.
