I'm going to do what I can to keep posting on here. I basically abandoned the thing last year (a marriage, honeymoon, and promotion at work will take up some time), but things are settled down, so I'll try to post (relatively) regularly.
A couple items to start the year. First, a big congrats to former Naturals Cody Clark, Carlos Rosa, Irving Falu, Kila Ka'ahuie, Dusty Hughes, and I'm sure a couple others I'm forgetting for their promotions to AAA Omaha. Remember that Ka'ahuie and Rosa both spent time with KC last year, so we're pulling for them to get back up there again this year. The big club looks surprisingly solid this year, and pitching is starting to pile up there and in the system with Hochevar and Rosa in AAA, and Dan Cortes (who was roughed up in his first start this year) here in NWA.
Others you'll likely remember from last year are Brian McFall, Jose Duarte, Mario Lisson, and Blake Johnson.
The Nats have started off on the road again this year. Thus far they're 1-1 in San Antonio. We won't get to see them until next Thursday. I can't wait to get out to the 'Vest for a few games. Remember that Friday's game includes a charitable event to support the Susan G. Komen Foundation.

About this Blog:
In this, the Northwest Arkansas Naturals' inaugural season, I thought it would be fun to create a blog to discuss the team, and to provide some additional, original content on Arkansas' newest professional sports franchise.
I will try to focus on three things:
1. Day to day results of the Naturals' games, including as many first-hand accounts as I can give you.
2. Rehab assignments and call-ups to and from the Royals.
3. Game strategy notes plucked from Naturals games. I'll discuss pitching changes and offensive strategies, evaluating each as we go. Afterall, it's not just the players, but also the the managers and coaches who are trying to make it to the show.
