    Nationals’ infield prospect Carter Kieboom (Key-boom) was also called up.

    Kieboom hit a game-tying home run in the eighth inning, leading to the call on Nationals’ radio “BANG!! ZOOM!! Carter Kieboom!!” (Courtesy of MLB Radio.)

    Nice call, although the last name is pretty much low-hanging fruit...

    Vlad Jr. looked good in his debut. Good at-bats, big double in the ninth, handled the plays he had at third perfectly. Jays fans were going nuts over him.

    He looks like the real deal, the whole package. And he radiates love of the game. This guy is going to be great for baseball.

    I haven’t seen him yet but if his smile is anything like his dads he can be the face of baseball....

    He put the ball in play 4 times and 3 of those were to the opposite field. The other one came a few feet short of going over the left-field fence. I'm kind of excited about this guy myself.

    His smile is even better than his dad's.

    I would like to see if he has his dad’s trademark plate discipline. You know, the kind where you can single to left on a pickoff throw to first...

    That's the other beauty of the kid. He has excellent plate discipline. More walks than K's in the minors.

    He looks pretty hefty for such a young player. I wonder if there's some Sandoval in his future.

    He looks more like Manny Ramirez to me - a tank.

    I agree, but he has the type of body which can get out of shape in a hurry, he will need to work very hard to stay fit.

    Love the energy he brings to his game, it's contagious. I was a huge fan of his dad, he might be even better than him.

    He should be. But look at that body! He looks like a shorter version of Prince Fielder with golden locks.

    He needs to work with a nutritional expert or something.
    "Hating the Yankees like it's a religion since 94'" RIP Mike.


    "It's also a simple and indisputable fact that WAR isn't the be-all end-all in valuations, especially in real life. Wanna know why? Because an ace in run-prevention for 120 innings means more often than not, a sub-standard pitcher covering for the rest of the IP that pitcher fails to provide. You can't see value in a vacuum when a player does not provide full-time production."
