Ok, so they had a rough weekend against the Reds, go 1-2, winning the middle game.

 

We sweep the White Sox away 8-7, 5-2, and 7-4.

 

Their record is 7-2, and starting tonight, the Atlanta Braves (8-1) are in town for 3 games. Should be a good (if stressful) series. The Nats will send Ross Detwieler tonight, Strasburg tomorrow, and Gio on Sunday.

Uh oh

 

I go out for ice cream, and come back to a hurt Stephen Strasburg:

 

In the next at-bat, against Brian McCann, Strasburg threw two consecutive changeups, the pitch that is hardest on his arm — it was the pitch he threw in 2010 when his ulnar collateral ligament snapped. On his next pitch to McCann, his fastball dipped to 94 miles per hour.

 

Strasburg threw five more fastballs, all of them hovering between 93 and 95 miles per hour. After several pitches, Strasburg had appeared to roll his right shoulder and grimace. McCann would ground out, and then Strasburg struck out Dan Uggla with a curveball to end the inning.

 

In the dugout, pitching coach Steve McCatty and trainer Lee Kuntz huddled with Strasburg. He stared glumly ahead, a pinch of chewing tobacco tucked in his lower lip, as McCatty talked to him. In the bullpen, Craig Stammen had already started to warm up. After the Nationals finished hitting in the top of the inning, Stammen jogged from the bullpen in right field.

 

I’m watching the game now to see if there is any word. Obviously, this does not sound good.

 

The Nationals lead the Braves 2-1 in the top of the sixth.
