Jays 9, Nats 4: Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.
More missed opportunities than you can shake a stick at. Shairon Martis stunk, too.
Newsflash: Zim's slump is only a three-game funk:"Three bad games, out of how many? I think that's what's going on," he said. "It happens to everybody." (Ryan Zimmerman, via Washington Times, 6/22/2009)

Five MLB Standouts
Looking at some players/numbers that stick out across MLB…
Hey, why would anyone want Adam Dunn? I think I made that clear in the offseason as I basically begged for a Chicago team to sign him. He’s doing what he usually does. The guy who has hit 40 or more homers for the last 5 seasons [...]
Nats' run ends, unlike Zimmerman's slump
By the time Ryan Zimmerman stepped to the plate in the first inning Sunday, the Washington Nationals already trailed the Toronto Blue Jays by four runs.

Dan Uggla and a study on performance
Last time, I took a look at Dan Uggla and his ever-improving plate approach. I compared his approach as similar to that of Adam Dunn’s, he of the 40 home runs each of the last six season. Dunn is one of the better offensive performers in the National League, and if Uggla can become something [...]
