garrett

  . in the spring he was relieving and so he, you know, he has had to really change his whole preparation, kind of his arsenal of pitches. they made a good decision to say "you know what, let's go ahead and stretch him out and make him get himself to the point where he can go deeper in the ball game and challenging that way and let him develop another pitch in his arsenal if that's possible to go to hitters with a few more weapons." >> jim wriggleman talking about garrett mock. he will start tonight. 2-4 for the nats.

one good think about 'em ray, he has back to back wins over arizona and cincinnati. >> he pitched extremely well. his earned run average is 2.25. you can see right there. he had a 9.50 earned run average but start to go throw a lot of strikes ahead of the hitters, a moving fastball, gets up to 92, 93, just a yacing curve ball, the change- up he has been able to work this to his repertoire. he has basically been a two- pitch pitcher as wriggleman talked about out of the bullpen but he is able to use the pitch in his repertoire. >> he has only walked 23, struck out 32, it's his first start against the colorado rockies tonight. his mound opponent is going to be jason hamel. hamel comments in tonight at 7 and 7 for the rocks. >> ray: with a four .7 earned run average, given up 150 hits, actually not a very good ratio

as far as his hits to innings pitched ratio. he is a guy that doesn't strike out a lot of people either but has been hot of late. the main thing he has done is in six of his starts he has given up 5 runs or more and eight times he has not been able to go past the fifth inning. so he is a guy that is just really learning how to pitch. the fifth starter in their rotation and the only guy that hasn't won 10 games. >> johnny: everybody is excited with beer mike rizzo being named permanent general manager and vice president. >> ray: with the con dye new tee of the organization now and everybody coming together and

adding to stability, this team is on the rise. >> the nationals can sal village this third game, of the series against colorado. for ray knight, i'm johnny holiday. bob carpenter and rob dibble coming up here next on masn. computer problems?
