Chien-Ming Wang making first start since June 19

Chien-Ming Wang making first start since June 19
For the first time in over three months, Chien-Ming Wang will start a major league game today. The Nationals will give the ball to their veteran sinkerballer and hope he can cool down a red-hot Brewers lineup. Wang threw 2 1/3 scoreless innings in the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Dodgers, but he hasn't started a game since June 19. Wang battled hamstring and hip injuries this season, and when he has pitched, either at the major league or minor league levels, he...

Nats, Brewers Saturday lineups

Nats, Brewers Saturday lineups
The Nationals will have their regular starters on the field behind Gio Gonzalez this afternoon as the left-hander again tries for his 20th win of the season. Gonzalez got stuck with the loss his last time out, allowing two runs over five innings against the Braves on Sunday night. His record sits at 19-8 entering today, and he still could become the first guy in the majors to hit the 20-win mark. The Nats will face Brewers righty Wily Peralta, who is 2-0 with a 2.14 ERA in four appearances...

For the Nats: RF Jayson Werth CF Bryce Harper 3B Ryan Zimmerman 1B Adam LaRoche LF Michael Morse SS Ian Desmond 2B Danny Espinosa C Jesus Flores P Edwin Jackson For the Brewers: RF Norichika Aoki 2B Rickie Weeks LF Ryan Braun 3B Aramis...

Quotes after Nats' 3-1 win in Game 1 (plus Game 2 lineups)

Quotes after Nats' 3-1 win in Game 1 (plus Game 2 lineups)
The Nationals are at the 90-win mark. One more and they've locked up a postseason spot, marking the first time since 1933 that there will be a playoff baseball team in D.C. But again, the Nats insist they don't have eyes set on clinching a Wild Card spot. Their goal is the NL East title, and their magic number to lock up the division now sits at nine. "The only thing that's going to mean anything to me is when we clinch the pennant," manager Davey Johnson said. "That's the only number...

Morse in Nats lineup, good news on Espinosa
Michael Morse will take batting practice and is listed in tonight's lineup. If all goes well in the cage, Morse will be playing left field and batting fifth. There was some good news on Danny Espinosa this afternoon. After leaving Sunday night's game early, Espinosa underwent a MRI on his left shoulder. The scan revealed he had a bone bruise in the capsule of his shoulder. He received a cortisone shot yesterday and could possibly play tomorrow. Espinosa had feared a torn labrum and said the...

Morse out of Nats lineup for second straight game

Morse out of Nats lineup for second straight game
ATLANTA - For the second straight game, a left wrist injury is holding Michael Morse out of the Nationals' lineup. Morse has been bothered by the left wrist for some time now, and he told manager Davey Johnson after Tuesday night's game in New York that he felt he was hurting the team by trying to play through it. The initial plan was for Morse to try taking batting practice prior to tonight's game against the Braves, and then see how he feels. Once the clubhouse opens, we'll see if that...

Zimmerman, Desmond return as G. Gonzalez guns for 19th win
The Nationals have Ryan Zimmerman and Ian Desmond back in the lineup after both infielders sat out Sunday's 8-0 loss to the Marlins.

The Nats will have both their third baseman and shortstop on the field tonight when they open a three-game set with the Mets. Gio Gonzalez will take the mound for the Nats, shooting for his 19th win of the season. Should he get...

Nats, Marlins lineups
The Nationals get their second crack at Marlins rookie hurler Jacob Turner in a 10-day span as the right-hander will take the mound tonight against a Nats lineup which is crushing pretty much everything of late. Over their recent nine-game stretch, the Nats have won eight games, they've plated eight runs or more a whopping seven times. Taking the mound for the Nationals tonight will of course be Stephen Stasburg, who is making his final home start this season. For the Nats: RF Jayson Werth...

Both Jayson Werth (hamstring cramp) and Adam LaRoche (sore back) are in the Nationals' lineup for this afternoon's game against the Cubs. Werth was pulled in the ninth inning of Saturday's game after feeling his hamstring cramp up, and he was a late scratch from the lineup yesterday. LaRoche has been battling a sore back the last three or four days and was held out of the lineup yesterday, although he did pinch-hit in the sixth inning. The Nationals will face Cubs righty Jeff Samardzija,...

Nationals lineup against red-hot Wainwright

Nationals lineup against red-hot Wainwright
The 1-7 spots in the Nationals' lineup remain the same as the Nats prepare to take on Cardinals right-hander Adam Wainwright.

Gonzalez is 4-0 with a 3.22 ERA in seven starts against the National League Central this season. Wainwright is 13-10 with a 3.63 ERA this season, but he hasn't allowed more than two earned runs in any of his last eight starts. In that span, he's 6-1 with a...

Both Desmond and Morse return to Nats lineup (with Marlins lineup)

Both Desmond and Morse return to Nats lineup (with Marlins lineup)
The Nationals will get a jolt to their lineup as they look to snap a four-game losing streak tonight. Both Ian Desmond and Michael Morse will return after missing almost the entirety of the Nats' recent three-game series with the Phillies due to injuries. Desmond (strained right hamstring) technically appeared in Sunday's game when he was announced as a pinch-hitter, but that was just a ploy by manager Davey Johnson to get the Phillies to bring in a right-handed reliever. Desmond was then...
