*yawn* another two homer game for Bryce Harper

Oh, Ryan Zimmerman is getting an MRI on his hamstring today. Anthony Rendon was just scratched from the lineup in Harrisburg. Let the speculation begin!

No chance they call up Rendon even if Zimmerman goes on the DL. They’d likely call up Will Rhymes and have him split time at 3rd base with Chad Tracy. What I would do is bring up Jeff Kobernus to be the utility infielder and move Lombardozzi to the 3rd base platoon

Reports are coming out the Zimm is headed to the DL and Rendon will be called up as soon as he meets the time in the minors requirement.

Best news ever. He's gonna rake and then they'll have no choice but to put him at 2nd Base.

Junk ball hitter.

In other lineup news, Roenicke flipped Alex Gonzalez and Yuniesky Betancourt’s positions on Sunday, moving Betancourt to third base and Gonzalez back to first, where he played most of the spring before moving to third when Aramis Ramirez was injured.

“I’m seeing if maybe that gets him swinging the bat a little bit better,” Roenicke said of Gonzalez, who entered the day batting .136 with four RBIs. “He’s frustrated about it, but we need to get him going.”

Rendon 0-2 with an error. So pretty much doing what Zimmerman was doing.

[JimLeavy59]

So is Braun still on roids?

[moneyman255]

9-8, 7 game win streak with Betancourt and Gonzalez playing 1B/3B, and Weeks hitting .180

You probably gave up on the season when they were 2-8 tho.

I remember when we (Cubs fan) were as hyped about Prior....time will tell. Dotel was supposed to be a stud for the Mets too, if I remember right. I just remember his days for Houston.
