Today the actual action begins.  Yesterday we had entry interviews and such, but today organized events actually start.  Here’s where we’re at:

-The guy of today (Zimmerman) on the guy of tomorrow (Harper). My God, every time this guy opens his mouth I like him more. [Nats Journal]

-Speaking of the most talked about baseball guy who’s never ever played triple-A, Harper has high hopes for this season. [Comak]

• And if you think he’s a brat, take a look at his middle school self. [Nats Enquirer]

-Mike Rizzo jumped on The Fan to talk off season and 2012. [Federal Baseball]

-Davey Johnson thinks this Nats team has more potential than most teams he’s seen.  That’s really saying something coming from a guy who has been in baseball roughly 500 years. [Nats Journal]

-The Nats’ top pick in 2011, Anthony Rendon, will try out all infield positions during Spring Training.  With Zimmerman already at 3rd, they must be looking to see where he could make the best fit. [CSN Washington]

-Looking at the ever-puzzle of Ian Desmond. [District on Deck]

-Part 1 of a pitching analysis of the Nats minor league system. [Nats Prospects]
