The best laid plans sometimes are spoiled by Mother Nature and MASN is set to televise one of the few games in Florida this Spring and this one could be a wash-out.
Joe Ross is set to take the mound for the Nats in this scheduled 1:05pm start in Viera vs. a Mets travel roster.
The Nats insert a new doubleplay combo for today as Brendan Ryan gets the start at shortstop with Jason Martinson at 2nd base. The rest of the Nats starting lineup looks like mostly regulars with Tony Campana doing the DH’ing duties to start the game.
- Ben Revere CF
- Anthony Rendon 3B
- Bryce Harper RF
- Jayson Werth LF
- Clint Robinson 1B
- Wilson Ramos C
- Brendan Ryan SS
- Jason Martinson 2B
- Tony Campana DH
Joe Ross RHP
Other notes on the day include MLB Network is in Viera to continue their 30 in 30 coverage of the Nats and they have begun interviewing players for a 7pm broadcast.
As you can see Heidi Watney was out there as the sun was rising!
