Kennedy 球场，他并没有显露出像队友Jose Guillen和Vinny Castilla所受到的 震慑。 Wilson反覆地说他之前在宽阔的佛罗里达海豚球场以及科罗拉多裤儿湿 球场打球，他没有受到任何影响。例如，2000年是他在马林鱼队的最佳 球季，他击出2成64打击率、31支全垒打以及121分打点。其中12支全垒 打是在海豚球场所击出的。 在2003年，Wilson击出2成82打击率、36支全垒打以及141分打点，其中 21支全垒打是在裤儿湿球场所击出的。 Wilson在马林鱼队时以盗垒闻名，他说他在科罗拉多并不企图盗很多垒 包，因为他在裤儿湿球场必须防守广大的外野。 "那时不值得去盗垒。同时防守广大的外野和盗垒，将会带给身体过重的 负荷"Wilson 说。 当被问到打算如何防守RFK球场时，Wilson说，"这里并不比我曾防守过 的地方大，我在这里会像在家里一样自在。这里看来是很宽广，我会有 很大的空间奔跑并且得到其他优秀外野手的帮助，这都是好消息。" 再三思索： 在星期日与酿酒人队的比赛之後，总教练Frank Robinson曾考虑把游击 手Cristian Guzman放到板凳上，但最後这个舵手还是决定让Guzman在 星期一的比赛先发，尽管他继续了一整季的低潮。到星期一为止，Guzman 打击率是1成92，且上星期对酿酒人队的打击是：12个打数没有安打。 Robinson承认他之所以让Guzman 先发是因为他希望这个游击手保持一整 季的斗志（stay motivated）。Robinson同时说到，整个球队正陷入低 潮，这时单单挑出Guzman是不公平的。 Robinson不相信Guzman这个生涯打击率2成66的打击者，会忘了如何 打击。 "我试着想出现在和去年之间到底少了什麽，"Robinson说，"我不认为他 一整季可以有什麽惊人的打击，但是这个家伙是有一定的攻击力的。人 们谈论人工草皮的缺失--那不可能有这麽大的差异。我们需要这个家伙。" Robinson对陷於低潮球员的耐心并不令人意外。例如去年他对博览会队的 三垒手Tony Batista那样，他的棒子在球季开始的三个月根本毫无建树。 Robinson的耐心最後得到回报，Batista最後缴出2成41打击率、32支全垒 打和110分打点的成绩。 交易期限的絮语： 由於Junior Spivey受伤而需要一个备用的内野手，国民队对魔鬼鱼队的内 野手Julio Lugo和中继投手Danys Baez很有兴趣，根据一个棒球消息来源如 是说。 Lugo是魔鬼鱼队的先发游击手，截至星期一为止打击率为2成93，同时有3支 全垒打和36分打点。国民队认为他可以守三垒和游击，假如Guzman或Castilla 需要休息的时候。 Baez从2004年的冬季会议起就一直在国民队的雷达萤幕上，他现在是魔鬼鱼 队的终结者，拥有16次救援成功和2.45的自责分率。 伤兵报告 由於右脚髁深处的骨头瘀伤而列入伤兵名单，Nick Johnson已经脱下保护靴 并觉得好很多了。 Johnson星期一使用了健身脚踏车运动，国民队希望他星期四可以传接。 "我想大概还要四到五天，我们才能为他何时可以复出订出时刻表，"球队的 临时总经理Jim Bowden说道。 内野手Tony Blanco和Henry Mateo将从星期四开始复健比赛，Blanco将到3A 的New Orleans，而Mateo将到2A的Harrisburg。 Blanco因为鼻窦炎（sinus infection）所引起的眩晕而列入伤兵名单，Mateo 则是因为右肩膀而伤了一整季。 其他： --Bowden仍然希望Barry Larkin可以在球季结束前为国民队出赛，Bowden星 期一时曾询问过Larkin有关复出的事。 Larkin在上个礼拜才说过，他的心脏不适合打棒球。如果Larkin可以复出 ，则Bowden将不再需要去交易二、游的内野手。 --截至星期一为止，国民队的中继投手在过去11场比赛成绩为0胜6败，自责 分率3.86。 --国民队星期二晚上在RFK球场对科罗拉多落矶队的先发投手是右投手John Patterson，这是他生涯第九度面对落矶队，之前对落矶队的成绩为2胜2败 ，自责分率6.04。 Patterson上次先发对酿酒人队投了6局好球，只被打了7支安打失2分，但 是最後无关胜负。他投出了生涯新高的9次三振，并有一次保送。Patterson 现在已经有11次无关胜负的出赛了，他上次赢球是6月10日对水手队的时候。 Patterson承认没有捡到胜投是满令人沮丧的。 Notes: Wilson sizes up RFK Stadium Nationals center fielder not intimidated by vast outfield By Bill Ladson / MLB.com WASHINGTON -- Nationals center fielder Preston Wilson saw the spacious Robert F. Kennedy Stadium for the time on Monday, and it doesn't appear that he will be spooked like teammates Jose Guillen and Vinny Castilla. Wilson reiterated that he played in spacious Dolphins Stadium in Florida and Coors Field in Colorado and wasn't affected in any way. His best season with the Marlins, for example, was in 2000 when he hit .264 with 31 home runs and 121 RBIs. Twelve of those home runs were hit at Dolphins Stadium. In 2003, Wilson hit .282 with 36 home runs and 141 RBIs, and 21 of the long balls went over the fences at Coors Field. Wilson, who was known as a basestealer with the Marlins, said he didn't attempt to steal a lot of bases in Colorado because he had to cover a lot of ground at Coors Field. "It wasn't worth trying to steal bases. To have to cover that outfield and steal bases, it would put a beating on your body, " Wilson said. Asked what he thought about covering RFK Stadium, Wilson said, "It's no more room than I'm used to covering. I'll be right at home here. It looks big and spacious. The good thing is I have a lot of room to run and I have some good outfielders to help me out." He thought it over: After Sunday's game against the Brewers, manager Frank Robinson was thinking about benching shortstop Cristian Guzman, but the skipper decided to start Guzman on Monday even though he continues to be in a season-long slump. Entering Monday's action, Guzman was hitting .192 and was 0-for-12 against the Brewers this past weekend. Robinson admitted that he is starting Guzman because he wants the shortstop to stay motivated throughout the season. Robinson also said the entire team is in a slump and it would be unfair to single out Guzman. "We talk about taking him out of the lineup for a few days or a week," Robinson said. "What damage might that do to him for the rest of the year? You are not just thinking about the rest of this year. You are thinking about next year and the year after." Robinson refuses to believe that Guzman, a .266 career hitter, has forgotten how to hit. "I'm trying to figure out what it is that is missing between now and last year," Robinson said. "I didn't see him hit an awful lot [over the years]. But the guy has to be able to hit some. People talk about the lack of the artificial turf -- it can't be that big a difference. We need him." Robinson's patience with slumping players does not come as a surprise. Last year, for example, Robinson was patient with Expos third baseman Tony Batista, who did virtually nothing with the bat the first three months of the season. Robinson's patience paid off as Batista went on to hit .241 with 32 home runs and 110 RBIs. Trade deadline chatter: In need of a backup infielder because of the injury to Junior Spivey, the Nationals have shown interest in Devil Rays infielder Julio Lugo as well as reliever Danys Baez, according to a baseball source. Lugo is the Devil Rays' everyday shortstop, and is hitting .293 with three home runs and 36 RBIs entering Monday's action. The Nationals feel he could play third base or shortstop in case Guzman or Castilla needed a break. Baez has been the on the Nationals' radar screen since the Winter Meetings of 2004. He is currently the Devil Rays' closer, and has 16 saves and a 2.45 ERA. Injury report: Nick Johnson, on the disabled list because of a deep bone bruise in his right heel, had the protective boot taken off the heel and is feeling a lot better. Johnson worked on a stationary bike on Monday, and the Nationals hope that he could play catch on Tuesday. "I think it's going to be four or five days before we can put a timetable on how on how long he is going to be out for," interim general manager Jim Bowden said. Infielders Tony Blanco and Henry Mateo will be on rehab assignments starting on Tuesday. Blanco will go to Triple-A New Orleans, while Mateo will play at Double-A Harrisburg. Blanco is on the disabled list because of vertigo associated with a sinus infection, while Mateo has been hampered with a right shoulder injury all season. We need you: Bowden is still holding out hope that he could get Barry Larkin to play for the Nationals before the season is over. In fact, Bowden asked Larkin on Monday about coming out of retirement. Larkin said as recently as last week that his heart is not into playing the game of baseball. If Larkin came out of retirement, Bowden wouldn't have to trade for a middle infielder. Did you know? After eight seasons with the franchise, Castilla ranks third on the Rockies' all-time list behind Todd Helton and Larry Walker in home runs. Castilla hit 238 home runs for Colorado. Stat of the day: Entering Monday's action, Nationals relievers are 0-6 with a 3.86 ERA in their last 11 games. On deck: The Nationals play the second game of a three-game series against the Rockies at Robert F. Kennedy Stadium on Tuesday night. Nationals right-hander John Patterson will face the Rockies for the ninth time in his career. He is 2-2 with a 6.04 ERA against them. In his last start, Patterson pitched six solid innings and gave up two runs on seven hits against the Brewers but got a no-decision. He struck out a career-high nine batters and walked one. Patterson now has 11 no-decisions, and the last time he won a game was on June 10 against the Mariners. Patterson admitted that it was getting frustrating not to pick up victories. --
