Well, I was wrong!

July 18, 2008

I never expected to see Johnny Estrada play a game as a National given the talent (Flores) and surplus (the ever-versatile Lo Duca) we already have (with Snow-Nieves as backup who I like just fine). Estrada’s not only back on the team, but starting catcher and batting 5th tonight (and just grounded out to first in his first at-bat).

Dmitri Young was a late scratch from the lineup due to high blood sugar, so Lo Duca is at first instead of left field where he was originally penciled in.

And the second half begins…!!
