THE MORNING BREW Nationals make foolish Strasburg decision
NATIONALS SHUT DOWN STRASBURG
Stephen Strasburg, pitcher for the Washington Nationals, was supposed to start his final game on Wednesday against the New York Mets, but on Saturday, manager Dave Johnson made the announcement that Strasburg's season was over.
The Nationals were monitoring Strasburg's inning count and decided to end his season in an effort to protect his arm. Strasburg allowed five runs in just three innings pitched to the Miami Marlins this weekend; the Marlins won the series 2-1.
I can understand the decision in the long term, but I don't see how management could shut down a major contributing factor to the ball club leading the National League East. Strasburg made it clear he wanted to finish the season; if it were up to me, I'd let him pitch.
Why didn't the Nationals make smarter decisions about Strasburg's starts? They could have had him skip a start occasionally, or they could have moved to a six-man rotation. Either of these options would've allowed the team to have Strasburg's arm in the playoffs.
Strasburg finished his season pitching 159 1/3 innings, going 15-6 with a 3.16 ERA.
BOUNTY PLAYERS WIN APPEAL
Scott Fujita, Jonathan Vilma, Will Smith and Anthony Hargrove will be
back in the NFL this season. That is, unless Roger Goodell, commissioner of the NFL, decides to do anything about it.
These Saints were accused of intentionally injuring players, but on Thursday, an appeals panel lifted the suspensions set forth by the commissioner.
The Saints will welcome back two important components of the defense in Vilma and Smith. Fujita, a former Saint, will rejoin the Cleveland Browns. Hargrove, a free agent, will be looking for a roster spot on another NFL team.
With these four players winning their appeals, look for Saints head coach Sean Payton to follow in their footsteps and have his suspension lifted as well.
ANOTHER STRONG OUTING FOR CLEMENS, WHO GETS TO PITCH TO HIS SON
The 50-year-old Roger Clemens made his second start for the Sugarland Skeeters, throwing 4 2/3 scoreless innings. Clemens
has now pitched eight scoreless innings in the combined starts, but this one was more special than the last; Clemens's son Koby was behind the dish catching his father.
Regardless of what I think of Clemens' career now, it was pretty special to see father and son playing on the same team. In an interview following the game, Clemens said he hopes he can be in a Houston Astros uniform in February. I don't know what will happen, but based on what I've seen so far from Clemens, I wouldn't rule anything out.

Jayhawks defeat Bears, continue winning streak

Junior midfielder and forward Caroline Kastor led Kansas at the start of the game with she buried her first goal and added an assist
A howling wind aided the Jayhawk during the first half in Friday's 4-1 win over Missouri State at the Jayhawk Soccer Complex, scoring two early goals against the Bears that led to a record of 5-1-1 and remaining unbeaten in the last five games.
when freshman forward Ashley Williams' cross found Kastor at the near post. Then, Kastor's pass across the six-yard box to an open sophomore forward Jaime Fletcher gave the Jayhawks a 7th minute lead.
Realizing the speed advantage of Missouri State, the Jayhawks got their second goal five minutes later when Kastor and Fletcher combined again. This time, Fletcher collected the ball around midfield before playing a great through ball to the speedy Kastor. As the Missouri State goleie Chelsea Voet rushed out,
Kastor chipped the ball with her right foot and watched it roll into the back of the net to give Kansas the 2-0 lead.
"We were having trouble playing the right ball," Kastor said. "We got fortunate with the space in the back, but it felt good to finish a couple."
The strong wind helped knock clearances down and kept Missouri State under pressure. Despite the two early goals, Jayhawks coach Mark Francis didn't feel the Jayhawks played to their normal level.
"I didn't think we had much
rhythm today," Francis said. "It didn't seem like we really moved the ball."
Freshman midfielder Hanna Kallmaier got her first start as a Jayhawk and justified her selection by constantly breaking up Missouri State attacks and keeping possession.
Fletcher and Kastor continued to provide support for the Jayhawks, combining for 11 of Kansas' 17 shots. Kastor, who was named the Player of the Game, almost scored a second goal just before the half
when her shot from distance struck the cross bar.
Going into the second half, Kastor scored her second goal of the game in the 48th minute. Senior midfielder and forward Whitney Berry's pass was flicked past the defender by Kastor who ran clear on goal before firing it into the back of the net to give Kansas a 3-0 lead.
Missouri State's Michelle Sommer's gave the Bears their first goal when her long shot got past the outstretched arms of Kansas goalkeeper Kat Liebetrau. Kansas
finally wrapped up the game when Williams drew a penalty after being brought down in the box. Williams converted the goal into her sixth of the season.
Sophomore goalkeeper Kaitlyn Stroud also made her first appearance of the year as a 54th minute substitute for Liebetrau.
"We won the game, glad that we won," Francis said. "They really knocked us off our game today and we got to be better than that."
