"It's nice to know that if I go 0-for-5, I'm not going to come in the next day and need a break," Desmond said. "Davey understands that you don't have to come out and have success every single day. It's nice to have the support of the manager."

Tue, 20 Mar 2012 15:51:41 -0700 Washington Nationals SS Ian Desmond will be the team's leadoff hitter to start the season, with 2B Danny Espinosa hitting behind him at No. 2. Desmond hit .281 with five home runs and 20 RBIs in 50 games at the leadoff spot last year. However, Espinosa hit just .189 in 160 plate appearances in the second spot. Desmond and Espinosa have both worked to tweak their swings in spring training this year. Espinosa has tried to cut out a loop in his swing when he hits from the left side. Manager Davey Johnson thinks Espinosa is getting his timing back from the left side. "His stroke from the right side has really been good from the time I've been here," Johnson said. "His left side was a little longer, and he's gotten shorter, it's more direct, and he's more powerful with that swing."

Sun, 11 Mar 2012 18:24:03 -0700 Washington Nationals manager Davey Johnson said Sunday, March 11, that he isn't happy with the new batting stance of SS Ian Desmond. The player worked with his former high school hitting coach in the offseason to make adjustments to his hitting mechanics. Desmond and Johnson had a conversation about the stance Saturday, March 10. "He's impressionable," Johnson said. "They're all impressionable because they want to get better. Anybody who has a history with him is going to have their own ideas of what he needs to do to get better. I know him pretty good and I think I'm a little more experienced in knowing what he looks like when he's going good and what he needs to be working on, and how he needs to be thinking."
Sat, 10 Mar 2012 21:00:47 -0800 Washington Nationals 2B Danny Espinosa started at shortstop in the Grapefruit League game against the Detroit Tigers Saturday, March 10. Manager Davey Johnson said there are no plans to move Espinosa from second base, but he wants him to get some time there in spring in case he is needed due to an injury to SS Ian Desmond at some point.
