The Washington Nationals are off to a terrible start. They have only won one game out of the first 11. They just benched one o their best players because he was 5 minutes late. And he was doing charity work for the Nationals(helping kids) that made him late.

In February the team let their General Manager, Jim Bowden "resign" because there was so much controvery over the age of one of the Dominican prospects that was signed a few years ago. Seems the kid was a few years older than the Nationals thought. And there was talk of "money skimming". Haven't heard anymore about this since he resigned.

Then the "Acting GM", Mike Rizzo is afraid to make any moves because he is not given the job but is being "tested" first. This leads to an Opening Day roster that has too many outfielders and not enough quality pitchers. Then the team lets a good pitcher go, because they don't want to pay him an amount which is in the lowest 2% of baseball salaries.

Then our club's President, Stan Kasten, invites all of Philadelhia down to Washington just so the team can have a better attendance for the games. Dosen't matter how "rowdy and rude" the Phillie fans are.

Our manager, Manny Acta, seems not to care what is happening on the field and some of the players seem to follow suit. Some of the game decisions lately have seemed questionable to a lot of fans.

This city deserves better. For too long it went without a baseball team and now we have one. I don't expect a Wrold Series or even Divison championship, but I do expect a good brand of baseball and a win now and then. Come on Nats, let's get it together!!!
