Washington Nationals

2009 Washington Nationals

After a dismal 2008 season, the Washington Nationals are starting the 2009 season with nowhere to go but up. A big part of the problem is the team’s roster full of young, relatively inexperienced players, so adding veteran Adam Dunn (who has had 40-homer seasons every year since 2005), was an excellent choice. The pitching rotation has also received a boost, with the under-performing Tim Redding gone and the very promising Daniel Cabrera and Scott Olsen coming on. The 2009 season won’t be easy for the Nationals, but at least it won’t be boring, and the team needs fan support to be successful. Get your tickets to Nationals Park and help the Washington Nationals turn things around in 2009!

Move from Canada

Ironically, the latest team to represent our Nation’s capital began life as the first team to represent Canada. Originally the Montreal Expos when they were founded in 1969, the team proudly represented the history and tradition of baseball in Montreal - history that includes the first professional stop Jackie Robinson made on his way to breaking the color line in 1947.

Despite their lack of initial success, the Expos were loved by the press and the fans who made stars of players like Rusty Staub. By the early 1980’s they had put together a formidable team with the likes of Andre Dawson, Tim Raines, and Gary Carter. With these three offensive stars the club made the playoffs for the first time in 1981. The Expos remained competitive, but were never able to make it back to the playoffs.

New Home

After 3 plus decades in Montreal, the losing finally began to take its toll and fans began declining in the late 1990’s. Prior to the 2005 season the Expos moved to Washington, D.C. and became the Nationals. Managed by Hall of Fame player Frank Robinson in 2005 and 2006, the team delighted fans in Washington with their mix of veteran and young players. After playing their home games in RFK Stadium the team finally moved into their brand new state of the art Nationals Park in 2008.
