Unless there's something wrong with Middlebrooks physically, I'd rather that he get in there and work on the mini slump he's currently going through.
This is what's reported about Middlebrooks:
9/17 Injury Report: Not in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against Baltimore (September 17, flu-like symptoms)
Nats win game 1 with 3 runs in the bottom of the 9th. Braves magic number remains 4.
It's possible that BOTH the Yankees and Red Sox could finish at the bottom of the AL East.
FWIW (not much, I can assure you
1. Blue Jays
2. Rays (wildcard)
3. Red Sox
4. Yankees
5. Orioles
From wayyyyyyy back in this thread (post #76).........looks like somebody was wayyyyyy off!!

You're not the only one. I just threw out my SI Baseball Preview issue that had the Blue Jays winning the AL East and the Sox in last place.....
The Nationals cannot close the gap with Cincy by gaining two games in the standings every ten. The Nats have 12 games left, Cincy has 11, and the Nats trail by 4 and a half. Basically, the Nats have to get it to three or fewer in a day or two. If Cincy loses today and tomorrow and the Nats win tomorrow, then it is three. You can make up three with nine or ten to go, but beyond that, it would take one team winning out or the other losing all their games if they don't close it somewhat by tomorrow.
IF (and granted that's a big IF) the Red Sox hold on to the #1 seed, they will be playing one of the six teams that are currently fighting for the two wild card spots in the ALDS. These two teams are at the top of the list of teams I don't want to play.
Saltalamacchia just stole third, with a right handed batter in the box, and he stole home the other day. Ortiz has stolen third at least twice this year. I know that some great base stealers have said it is easier to steal third than second, but this is ridiculous.
Now tonight's lineup is one that is capable of scoring more than 3 runs (depending on how much of a factor their injuries and lack of playing come factor.) The injuries will still prevent the Ramirez and Kemp from performing at 100%. The Dodgers are still missing Crawford and Ethier.

If they can get all 4 outfielders healthy they can finally have the 4 man platoon they have been envisioning for a while. These are the 4 different platoon lineups using Kemp, Ethier, Crawford, and Puig:

Just heard on the radio broadcast: The Red Sox have been successful in their last 35 consecutive stolen base attempts.
I've been watching the Red Sox for 39 years, and it's just hard to believe that I just read that!!

Yep, it wasn't that long ago it would have taken two seasons to get that many attempts.
The Nats did it. They swept the Double Header from Atlanta!!!
