Just watched the post games on MASN. It's pretty obvious that Buck doesn't like Fox's gamecalling. You can tell he feels like if Wieters was calling the game that Arrieta wouldn't have gotten rocked.

Zach Britton certainly hasn't been surrounded by as much hype as Stephen Strasburg was last year, but, like the Nationals' youngster, Britton is "must-see TV," according to ESPN.com's Buster Olney (Twitter link). In today's Insider-only blog, Olney says the Orioles lefty looks like the best of 2011's rookie class so far this year. Here are some other items of interest from the piece:

Zach Britton has a chance to become what Stephen Strasburg was last year: Must-see TV. He is a very rare lefty with veering 95 mph fastball.

In other news, Fox starting in LF today. I'm starting to think we will be seeing Tatum soon after last night. Fox called a terrible game and teams will just run freely on him whenever they get a man on 1st.

Well having his bat around is what matters.  But last night's game was abysmal.
