Jayson Werth --- possible broken wrist

[Moonlight J]

just left the game and it did not look good at all

[Big Tymer]

Agree. He immediately was in pain and based on replays will be very surprised if this ends well.

[JudeBaldo]

I saw it while cooking dinner. Just lost my appetite. I think I gotta activate the kid now. ****! ****! ****!

Who gets the playing time Nady or do they put Moore out there

Why Moore won't play much, if at all: http://www.federalbaseball.com/2012/...leftover-notes

While we all wait for the Washington Nationals' return to the national spotlight tonight on ESPN's Sunday Night Baseball, here are some quotes from Nats' skipper Davey Johnson from the last few days that didn't make it into any of the articles that went up here so far this weekend:

• [From Friday] With Adam LaRoche out will Tyler Moore see time at first?: "Nope. The guy over there [Chad Tracy], is the guy I'm playing. I like the heck out of Tyler Moore, he can flat out hit, but he's a rookie and [LaRoche] is going to be out a few days, this is not the time to be trying to break a young phenom in to a position that the owner is going to come back real soon."

"[LaRoche] is not going to be out long and I'm going to get the guys that are going to be here and need the at bats. I would think long and hard about [Xavier] Nady after Tracy. As much as I love young talent and I think he's a good one... and also it's not something he'd be used to, so it would not really be fair to him. He hasn't played in five or six days or something. Well, he did get an at bat two or three days ago. He's not used to that role..."

Broken left wrist for Jayson Werth. He'll be out "a while." Will see specialist tomorrow, consulting w/Mayo Clinic surgeon.

Same wrist that he had surgery on previously and cost him a season. I feel bad for the guy. If Zimmerman's shoulder isn't any better the Nats are really going to be hurting for run production.

You really need to pull that freeze frame out of here...that's just gross....

If you want a gross freeze frame, check out Joakim Noah turning his ankle on Friday. Its at a 90 degree angle. I know its not baseball, but still....

In the meantime, the Nationals will move Bryce Harper over to right field and Johnson said to expect a steady diet of Roger Bernadina and Xavier Nady in left field, as well as possibly some Chad Tracy and Steve Lombardozzi. Presumably, Werth's injury allows the Nationals to keep Tyler Moore on the roster when Ryan Zimmerman returns from the disabled list on Tuesday, but Moore has played sparingly since being called up last Sunday.

out at least 3 monts

A straight up trade in my league last night without either owner knowing about the injury at 11:38 PM.

Loshe for Werth

Oh, well, the guy in second got a little weaker sez the guy in first.
