May 17, 2013Adam LaRoche's hit streak could be more impressive
CBSSports.com Fantasy — Yes, Adam LaRoche is in the midst of a 13-game hit streak, but considering he has just 17 hits during that stretch, it's not quite as impressive as it sounds. His second home run in as many days Thursday is a better indication that he's on the verge of turning his season around, but as I wrote in the latest Hit Parade, I'd be wary of starting him in Fantasy Week 8 (May 20-26). Here's a taste of what the Nationals are facing in that six-game slate: Matt Cain, Madison Bumgarner, Kyle Kendrick and Cole Hamels. Yeah, LaRoche maintaining the streak against them wouldn't be the strangest thing ever,...

Game 42: Nats at Padres
Nats Insider | CSN Washington — USA Today Sports ImagesThe Nationals go for two in a row at Petco Park.Nothing like a dominant Stephen Strasburg outing and a rare offensive explosion to make everybody feel better, right? The Nationals certainly got back on track last night thanks to eight strong innings from their would-be ace and some offensive fireworks from Bryce Harper and Adam LaRoche.Now they'll look to keep it going tonight against the Padres' starter, a young man by the name of Burch Smith.

Washington Nationals May 17, 2013The Nats are Holding the Nats Down
Citizens of Natstown — I woke up Thursday morning to see the Nationals had lost again last night. I noted that the only run the Nationals were able to score was a solo home run by Adam LaRoche. The good news is that LaRoche seems to be finding himself after a slow start, which is not abnormal for the veteran 1B. It is easy to see what is going on with the Nationals, really, and that is that they simply haven't been scoring a whole heck of a lot of runs. Looking at the Nationals record isn't so discouraging at 21-19. Even during the last stretch of games, the Nationals may have failed to tie the Braves for 1st place,...
