Nats’ Zimmerman Breaks Bone in Wrist – The Post
3B Ryan Zimmerman broke a small bone in his left wrist while taking batting practice at his high school on Sunday. He probably needs surgery that will require several weeks of healing, but should not be a problem when spring training starts.

Also, Zimmerman didn’t win the gold glove, his Hampton Roads contemporary David Wright of the Mets did, according to the Free Lance News-Star. Here are some numbers to crunch:

Wright had a fielding percentage of .954, made 21 errors in 452 chances and was involved in 24 double plays. Zimmerman had a fielding percentage of .955, made 23 errors in an NL-high 511 chances and was involved in 39 double plays.

I guess it helps to play on a contending (for 159 games at least) team in a big city.

Nationals’ Events in Maryland Anger D.C. – The Post
In the latest public relations gaffe, the Nationals are moving their “Dream Gala” to P.G. County. An offer to use the National Harbor Gaylord National hotel for free spurred that decision. Other events, such as the fanfest will also be outside of D.C. do to difficulties getting venues arranged.

District officials are not happy; six council members are quoted in the article. Sure, the council is grandstanding, but team ownership should be having events in the city that is building the $611 million ballpark. If those events can’t be accommodated this year, they should smart enough to say, “you know you have a point there, let’s make sure these events are in D.C. next year.” Is ownership politically tone deaf or does it just not care?
