VIERA, Fla. - Here is the Nationals' lineup for tonight's game in Port St. Lucie against the Mets. The Nationals will let their pitchers hit for the first time tonight:
Bernadina - RF
Desmond - SS
Zimmerman - 3B
LaRoche - 1B
Morse - LF
Ankiel - CF
Rodriguez - C
Espinosa - 2B
Gorzelanny - P
A programming note: I'm over on the minor league side this morning, where the Nationals have an intrasquad game between Triple-A Syracuse and Double-A Harrisburg, and Single-A Hagerstown will play a local college team.
Chad Gaudin is scheduled to pitch in one of the games (though he wasn't sure which one), and Bryce Harper will play for Hagerstown. I'll have a few updates from there before packing up for Port St. Lucie.
