68-year-old Davey Johnson, who will be forever remembered in New York for leading the Mets to the 1986 World Series title, is returning to the dugout -- for the Nationals. "If you're a Mets fan, it's a sad day," Ron Darling told the New York Daily News.
Lucas Duda is big. 6' 4" and 254 pounds big. He's strong and almost frighteningly quiet and shy. It has led to confidence issues for Duda, who has even openly questioned whether he's ready to appear on the big stage.

Matt Harrison pitched seven strong innings, Adrian Beltre snapped a 13-game homerless drought and the Texas Rangers beat the New York Mets 8-1 on Friday night.
