The Nats had other ideas, preferring to keep him in the minors so he could play reguarly. That plan has been foiled by injuries to new catchers Paul Lo Duca and Johnny Estrada. Nobody is complaining though, Lo Duca has been awful and seems to be going out of his way to be the least likable National ever even when he is injured. Estrada has also been hurt, so Flores is up here playing well. It will not be easy to send him back down should the other catchers return.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"post-article-link\" href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/wp-dyn\/content\/article\/2008\/05\/22\/AR2008052204271.html?sid=ST2008052204511\"><b>Kearns to Have Surgery, Could Miss a Month<\/b><\/a> &#8211; <i>The Post<\/i><br \/><a class=\"post-article-link\" href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtontimes.com\/article\/20080523\/SPORTS02\/541623914\/1005\/sports\"><b>Kearns will have surgery on elbow<\/b><\/a> &#8211; <i>The Wash.
