CSN Washington dot com. Happy hope they welcome the lunch box live -- -- -- The Washington Times a -- Carter an extra special treat for you folks. Chris Miller the legendary. Veteran broadcaster who I've looked up to for years decades back. Joins muted it. All the -- in my -- that I do. A huge sign of an appropriate season game. Just. Focus in this. Week. The process. Guys rated but these years so I think that last order and yet so on it. And that's. At an outdoor football stuff yeah. Mean you know you play. It's one thing worked out -- football's though yours now injuries -- -- That plays real precise four point. You know performs like it's easy to work your way. It's a real still -- It's just that it can add value to get under fracture in his -- before the main course I wanna see just how pared down the systems are. Ha I would imagine they can do too many complex things up the blitz schemes on defense as I would imagine Virginia head. All protection on offense I think He gives you some quarterbacks taken some palatial shots if they're not Max protection. If they're not careful how they use the running backs protection. Speaking on sexy -- and as good not a great shape he's reportedly looking like Sonny Jorgensen well. He section actually coming out today and in in now watch this on the show at 5 o'clock. Let's continue to win the NFC east. I have no problem what I want my quarterback to be cocky a lot of -- back to say we're gonna win. Why not. I'm surprised. It. What. Sport are going forward well well that. The first -- it. But it -- taking -- job so. Surprised by. Once you know that all night. But. -- -- The back it up for. It now. It seems like along pitchers. That. He's got a lot through those players. -- You know Obama's -- cornerback. Played a position by nature. Requires. All this out outlandish confidence. So like you said you gotta go do it but I don't mind saying that some folks who live program will see what happens I will say this -- this team's gonna make big progress though. -- going to be Hayward product is gonna happen on defense and they do get better if if legend comes back right now he's been. Bothered by the Achilles war OJ Atogwe is about the hamstring I expect that will be a product of September 11. I think he's an upgrade at safety and -- -- -- Jeff Wilson as an upgrade at corner over over Rogers. I think Ryan Kerrigan has just here to play based off what -- Purdue in the Big Ten -- good call Phil was an upgrade. I think the better linebackers here so this team is better it's on the side of the. Ball here like He saw with the rightful -- -- Spurs. Monster but -- and -- alarming -- But I think he's generally it is what it is better row -- island they'll play. Monster ran. An ad Stephen Baldwin I within minutes it got better thirties yes yes. My best the week please come back helped an achilles' felt this. They're the least of their frightening that the worst because you'd you'd never come back the same particularly in a position where you have to cover ground. You have fast quick burst. It's not it's not good. At it Tuesday. While one knows that. It is. Easy to be. I don't think he's adapted David Boston. Got so big you'll get top. -- that's and that's that's the case for a look at how these upper body got. And as -- -- a lot of all of its. Now this. I had an isolated anymore no more that you want to run that's where you go get Atogwe who's more of the south they all types safety. That makes sense to me but again no problems or stretching the defense can have a better all sorts you know Friday night against Pittsburgh -- the Ravens side. I'm like what they did elect a breakaway just pick up a worried about setter position Matt -- is getting long in the tooth he's as a knee injury that typically want a guy gets past thirty double. Magically get better -- have a good backup option at center that not in a tight and emerged after losing Todd Heap Dixon -- see about him he's had some injury issues. And I still want to see what happens as a pass rusher the past were one of the worst lately in terms of sacks. Are those of my big question -- this team and also back -- quarterback. Tyrod Taylor. And then receiver. There may leave. You asking -- in the outcome. Of -- as a rookie. Anquan Boldin hate it my man. You -- on that note there's no more awareness FitzGerald orders -- you are the top all that receiver position. And still haven't as much as I'd like Joseph Flacco. You know in the post. That's when you make your guess is that when you make your name. As a quarterback in this league is what you do when you were rated -- you take the evolution take that next step. But operated arts superstar right there ball that they have Ricky Williams -- about 815 carries a game I think that's good. We get Bob Daly to probable fullback who is -- -- have a block rumors that Tony Richardson few years ago with with Casey with Priest Holmes. Yet this guy and the average it was short so it looks to me. Like the running game. And their defense table all right that's gonna carry over the in the Flacco play action and -- Torrey Smith comes along along the years. And that has had a -- aware of what sort of position I'll keep an eye on that as far as Ravens who -- Oh. Yeah. It. First you called on that absolutely -- all -- ever. Ever. Ever gardening yet out there. That point. Sharks. In the water. To. We'll see about that too lark coming up on the show religiously you know -- warm will be here Brian Mitchell you know he's gonna have some say. While Rex Grossman she was going to be talking about -- your thoughts on this Georgetown basketball team go to China. Next week -- going with them. This is why you go to Georgetown to play basketball as maybe some other schools. You get to do things like this big opportunity here -- -- going to get better fastball team bond but a cultural experience as well. -- I hate its like if it up and coming. Basketball. Is -- that's why. You realize there -- more likely that. Period so for GT reading eagle over three and that's well. -- He also gets a lot of Georgetown gear absolutely in the get lifelong -- Portland global. Helps universe. Or. That. In your freshman class -- human experience it's. Yeah that's why it's why you go to a school like that all the talk about that would Jeff Green a little bit last week when He was -- for the show whose -- going back to get his degree Georgetown. Which a lot of players are gonna do now with his NBA lockout. So keep an eye on that because this thing is going to be a long -- Is everything that I hear. It's unfortunate you know it can be all season that's why the news last night when He came up to Kevin dressed in a place for she does in the Turkish League. Maybe go while this could be long because now. Deron Williams was the first shoe to drop your life while that's all start going over -- -- this was cordoned Kobe Bryant. But to get the two time reigning scoring champion -- from right here in our backyard. To negotiate a deal to go over there. Makes me think that this is going to be this is going to be significantly long process to get both sides together with an eight under me now is all. We. Yeah you know that's that plays that would kill all the books and I think He stays put things here I think He stays -- to -- -- he's an an interesting situation -- -- him. He does so well at moments like this when he's at the North Carolina pro am you know -- in the -- well. Well I think it's. People who have missed the do some promotional stuff below money endorsements and stuff like that we need to -- -- now see here this is. This is where you go this is the future of the franchise on over she does it'll be very careful that you don't want or experts in these. -- summer games or whatever like that but don't think undercut this dude that report for John Wall with that. Here in the jumper who kept getting better he's got the motion it's fine. So like He hasn't if He gets his jump shot down and that blazing speed He will be a problem for the next. Can be a superstar obviously it is feasible that -- -- -- now. -- -- it means a lot getting some knuckle out of here. A lot of yet so we'll keep that also should match today and in enters the August Brenda McDonald he's united defenders coming on again off the shelves. They've got nine ties this year now it's -- -- -- sort of like the NHL we're tied. Is not an empty feeling get a point but I would ask him as an athlete what is the feeling when you walk off the field that -- last week. -- happy -- are sometimes better than others if you if you're down to zero late score physical -- Well last week they got robbed you've added yet. No I'm not a soccer and realize that what asset watched that and see if any -- just lose it yeah I think -- -- three point result right there and -- right there at the outcome some consistency from has proposed that they were your emotions when the game if He if He ties. Do you believe that she is notable then that ever happened to me. I would. It. Isn't that the. I think I've never. And cots might like -- -- on the red -- and in my junior senior they put overtime in to get the ball from the twenty or whatever. I liked that better but a football game -- -- a point in the standings or authority was -- NHL. That's that's off point because you have to think about it do you salt off the pitch like. Okay we got -- -- Could have Barry. You don't know if you're better than that team that night. Somebody asked where number doubt about that also have to wait your resort it was just on the school's all are right now but ball quite like and a and the last -- MVP. That's in also tonight unless -- he's not plan overseas. You it's a fast think the topic was never right in the budget of fights within his rights -- owned by another team in the by that was too much. It just it never timed up right. So. Yes our quality you know -- you're just the average. Outs in -- in and watch. He catches my yes. And when He scores goals wag sold that for me he's guys that are written all over him -- it is yeah do you get on a Sunday is a little ice improbable team together on outdoor. I try to go ahead rally He can get the Caribbean -- because we had a -- and -- -- -- 5 o'clock publisher Brian Mitchell jewel.

Bryce Harper historically struggles in San FranCsnwashington.com. Bryce Harper that San Francisco is one of his favorite places to play. That may be the case but he's struggled a hit there so far in his young career has won 43 batting average at AT&T park is his third worst. At any ballpark in baseball. Joining me now as I and that's insider mark Zuckerman mark let's start with Bryce Harper how important. Is his presence to the line up right now. It's really important cordoning. Do that often struggles they've had a lot of it is attributable. Being out mall adjacent worked out people at the two of them in the to get there once in the last eighteen. Harper the most productive hitter. The loss of work an injury has been just as beaten. Good and giving it it is of course the collective one teaching. With the 200 spot for an awful and not put anybody on base for. We're in there and broke him right in. Absolutely but one guy who hasn't been struggling right now as Adam LaRoche what's been his secret to his recent six sacks. Well you know if this goes back to a little especially with chipper Jones and Atlanta at the beginning of the former rival but also former teammate as it is when he played Chipper knows his swing started he stepped it up with a deep in Houston and it but until with a career high hitting streak. I think I the pressure off and for awhile is looking just to go the opposite he is. The last few days he seemed to turn a ball and really get to that just you know. And the right that huge difference that it was going in there and going to do you know. As long to get harper back it'll be quarter but it can be used to edge. CSN Washington dot com.

Beltway Baseball: Why Strasburg will be just fineCSN Washington dot com. Are welcomed the beltway baseball here on CSN Washington dot com on chase Hughes and mark Zuckerman. And mark we've been through a month and a few weeks or overly down here. And the nationals as a team having kinda inconsistent but one thing that is really travelling fans and people around league starting to notice is it consistency of Stephen Strasburg. The numbers aren't that far off from what we've seen but it anyone who's watched him over the last few years and tell maybe there's something something a little bit off he's having trouble finding the strike zone. What do you make of the situation and do you think it is that they concern yeah I mean the thing is like you said the numbers don't look. It that far off feeds the pitching. for big league pitcher but he set such a high bar for so we've come to expect so much. Patted him it just doesn't quite look like what you expected the biggest thing is fastball command. You know he's not. Throwing strikes getting ahead in the count. The way it did it was so amazing about him as a rookie when he came back originally from the Tommy John surgery was the fact that. He could be a power pitcher while still having excellent coming that deadly combination. Just not quite there yet. Curve balls still excellent still excellent. I think you're seeing signs of improvement I think he's getting there but he still working on to think that it's mechanical mostly. And they they seem to determine and it's not physical it's mormons and you can see it on the on the field he's the body language that. He's impatient he gets frustrates easily and this just a matter of him being such a perfectionist. He's not used to not being great. He's used to being great not just good right exactly and I think that's that next step and take if he's really gonna become an ace of the World Series contender. It's about hey it doesn't matter what happens behind him Doesn't matter what run support I the umpire and I'm gonna go out I'm gonna beat no matter We're seeing there and do that right now I think it's time for Strasburg if he really wants to become an elite. Top. The line pitcher. That's what he needs you now quickly another guy who's had trouble as you can also I think might be a little bit more of a concern is his command has been quite there. I think it's curve ball isn't quite as sharp as it was last year this is something that might he might work out the kinks out. But he has been pride stuff yeah I mean an more erratic certainly had some fantastic start and that's really troubling ones I think his last start Pittsburgh may have been a turning point for them. Got a huge jam in the first inning lead off home runs very first pitch then he loads the bases. Nobody out. Battle back and get out six straight after that I can almost see a little something clicked inside and minutes that. Maybe this you Ozzie admitted afterwards and younger version him would have melted there. Let it spiral out control. That might be assigned an comes back next time that made it a big turning point mark let's talk about the catching situation we're moving through May and so far Davey has. Rotated kind of alternated and depending on the edge depending on the he said that at some he's gonna have to make a decision we saw over the weekend go back to back with Ramos. At some point. Maybe you and you think we're gonna see him go with the primary catcher I think so maybe not a true number one in the and a guy you know catching you know once or twice a week and I think he does. Number one wanna play the hot hand whoever it is. I think he hopes its problems he understands that everyone understands. That Wilson Ramos has higher ceilings and Kurt Suzuki put the whole package together offensively defensively he can do more so I think you're gonna start to see that. It Suzuki gets hot they'll play obviously. I think the preference be for to ultimately take over. I went into the numbers last week how the pitching staff has done with Suzuki and For some reason everybody but you done way better with over the past few seasons in their career ERA is. Are better with him in their career marks I don't I don't know I can't tell you why that is but that's the case yeah and I the pictures all insist they'll have both guys I don't know if there even where it. Yzerman tops they had success with Suzuki and it's amazing stats that would certainly something overtime that you have to look him. Now as we're getting close to the middle of may what we take stock with the division first the Braves came out really hot out of the gate. It was it was really at the point were you thinking all right who's gonna slow him down or what's gonna slow them down they didn't seem to have a weakness whatsoever. The nationals. Meanwhile your 500. But as they're starting to get things going they're not that far behind it could be much worse at this point oh absolutely mean if the nationals. Figure that April was their worst month but that's as bad against them they're going to be all right because they hover around 500. And the rays came back to earth and what's it was gonna happen next maybe not. To this extent you're surprised by that we're gonna play 900 ball. All right I think it was twelve and when you start here to me what's interesting is all of a sudden they're closer Craig Kimbrel. Most dominant closer in baseball last year and the first month this year he's blown three saves in days yeah giving up home runs. That's. Staggered problem right there I mean who knows just a blip. Or something long term about but also without Johnny Panthers won their top. Setup men and PG beaches and come back and just came back Heyward been out for a while there. BJ Upton knocked off to a good start the play and they got a lot of weapons are they're going to be good. Long term but they may not be quite easily as we and BJ Upton has been really bad and having having gas was really early on but. he's not looking like the next Mike Capps at this point about one thing I think it's interesting as the two best guys I think in their offense have to look at the numbers today. They've been Justin Upton and Chris Johnson who of course were with the team much yeah exactly they talk on all the offseason moves it made it mentioned Johnson as much damage in the Upton Brothers that night do you think getting Freddie Freeman back to deal with me that isn't fantastic all around first baseman. The Braves are going to be fine long term this can make good race really do believe that. CSN Washington dot com.
