		<title>More Bryce Harper Hi-Res Video</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s another video of a Bryce Harper home run. Notice that it&#8217;s lefty on lefty, and Harper just snaps at the inside pitch and launches it. Despite all his talent, this kid still has a lot to learn, which translates to a huge potential upside. Hopefully, he&#8217;ll be the catcher for the Nationals for the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Nationals Sign Future HOFer Rodriguez To Boost Pitching</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Nationals signed future Hall of Famer Ivan Rodriguez to a 2-year deal this week. The catcher might be a shell of his former self, but he still has a lot to offer a Nationals franchise that could use the input of a veteran. I-Rod will be able to instruct our young pitching staff and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Strasburg&#8217;s Second Pitching Appearance Reason For Concern</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Nationals top draft pick Stephen Strasburg may have had a good first start in the Arizona Fall League, but his second appearance shows that he is human. He allowed 8 runs in 2 and 2/3 innings the other night, including 3 home runs. I&#8217;m afraid that Strasburg might lack the arsenal of pitches to get [...]]]></description>

		<title>Nationals &#8220;Other First Rounder&#8221; One Of Few To Sign</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Unlike Stephen Strasburg, who will probably hold out until the week of the August 17th deadline to sign with the Nationals, the Nats #10 overall pick in the draft is one of just a handful of 1st rounders to have already signed a deal. Drew Storen has agreed to a bonus of about $1.6 million. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Nationals Picking Up Garbage&#8230; From The Royals?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Nationals have signed Horacio Ramirez to a minor league deal and sent him to AAA Syracuse. Ramirez was released by the Royals last week after posting an ERA of nearly 6.00 in 22 innings this season. It&#8217;s great to see that we&#8217;ll take unwanted players from any team, even the lowly Royals. Maybe we [...]]]></description>

		<title>Nationals Have Day Off From Losing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Nationals have the day off, which means they have about the same chance of gaining a win as they would if they were playing today. This post is really just filler so I can test some new updates. You can go back to sulking over the Nationals poor performance this weekend now. Enjoy your [...]]]></description>

		<title>Could The Nationals Get Bryce Harper Next Year?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Bryce Harper is the most hyped baseball prospect since, well&#8230; Stephen Strasburg, and it&#8217;s possible the Nationals could end up with both of them. Strasburg was picked by the Nationals at #1 overall in last week&#8217;s draft and is just a mega-contract signing away from joining the franchise. Bryce Harper is only 16 years old, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Boras: Strasburg Deal Should Be &#8220;Special&#8221;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ESPN is reporting that Stephen Strasburg&#8217;s advisor, the infamous Scott Boras, has said that Strasburg&#8217;s contract should be &#8220;special&#8221; because he thinks he&#8217;s among the premium 1% of picks that have a better track record of major league success. 
The previous record for a draftee contract is Mark Prior, who received $10.5 million in 2001. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Nationals Pick Drew Storen with #10 Overall Pick</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Nationals were given the #10 pick as compensation for being unable to sign 1st round pick Aaron Crow last season. With their 2nd pick in the 1st round, the Nats took Drew Storen, a right-handed pitcher out of Stanford. You might remember him being used as a closer in last year&#8217;s College World Series.

		<title>Nats Take Strasburg With #1 Pick</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In a move that should surprise absolutely no one, the Nationals selected Stephen Strasburg with the #1 pick in the amateur draft on Tuesday. Strasburg features a 100+ mph fastball and a slider that tops 92 mph on many occasions. He also has Scott Boras as his &#8220;adviser&#8221; (can we officially call him an agent [...]]]></description>
