UPDATE:<\/span> John Patterson cut<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

A few questions remain<\/b><\/a> – The Wash. Times<\/i>
The top five issues facing the Nats (healthy pitching, who’s on first, recent acquisitions, what Paul Lo Duca<\/span> will say and Felipe Lopez<\/span>) are reviewed.<\/p>\n

Marrero Looks to Move Up Quickly<\/b><\/a> – The Post<\/i>
Chris Marrero<\/span> is the Nats #1 prospect and the first baseman of the future. He did very well in two levels of A ball last year. He may start off at A-Potomac again, but will probably be in AA Harrisburg before too long.<\/p>\n

Nats believe Maxwell’s smart player to have<\/b><\/a> – The Free Lance-Star<\/i>
OF Justin Maxwell<\/span>, who had 25 homers, 25 steals and 25 doubles in the minors as well as successful cup of coffee in Washington last year will likely start the season in AA. He probably won’t finish it there though.<\/p>\n

No pain means Nats gain<\/b><\/a> – The Free Lance-Star<\/i>
RHP Shawn Hill<\/span> says he feels fine after throwing a 38 pitch session. By tomorrow (at the latest), expect the “tightness in forearm” story.<\/p>\n

Also, C Paul Lo Duca<\/span> caught five innings of a minor league game pain free.<\/p>\n

Nationals hope Milledge and Dukes can overcome past<\/b><\/a> – USA Today<\/i>
Another article about the new starts for Lastings Milledge and Elijah Dukes. Once again it is worth mentioning that Milledge high-flying the crowd after a homer and making a bad rap song is not comparable to Duke’s well-documented telephone and paternity issues. <\/p>\n

DICK HELLER<\/span> – Partnership makes a sure bet for charity<\/b><\/a> – The Wash. Times<\/i>
Scratch off Nationals lottery tickets will be available in both D.C. and Virginia later this month.<\/p>\n

Nationals Offer Parking for Disabled<\/b><\/a> – The Post<\/i>
Details on handicapped parking for Nationals Park have emerged.<\/p>\n

The Way To Go<\/b><\/a> – nats320<\/i>
Stan Kasten<\/span> took Metro! Eventually, he even got on the correct train.<\/p>\n

3B Ryan Zimmerman<\/span> is chatting on washingtonpost.com<\/span><\/a> today. Yesterday, Barry Svrluga<\/span> chatted there too<\/span><\/a>. Over on washtimes.com, Mark Zuckerman had his own chat<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n
