3 ex Nats in the opposing 9. As for Kearns, at least he won't be overmatched by the fastball today, which gives hope that he may actually be offensive today. GO NATS...lets make it 2 in a row before we entertain the little red machine.

Did Josh Willingham get the swine flu or what? Give the dude an ibuprofen and tell him to get out there!

If you're going to put him in the lineup at least have the decency to hit him 8th or 9th. Hitting him 6th is indefensible.

Re: Kearns - Look at the numbers; He's 12/27 (.444) lifetime against Livan, with 2HR & 10RBI. Also, Right-handers are hitting Livan better than Left-handers this year (.322 vs .289).

You were saying? When you're Kearns, there's always a 6-4-3 in your future.

I see Austin "Buzzkill" Kearns is back in the lineup. Glad I just made the decision not to wander down there today.
