With Lastings Milledge getting demoted to the minors , Elijah Dukes has become the top center fielder for the Washington Nationals.
The question now becomes…should you go out and roster him?
My answer…ABSOLUTELY! You have to get this guy on your reserve list or on your bench, even if you are in a standard mixed 5×5 league. What can he bring to your team?
Dukes has legitimate power and speed, and it could turn into a lethal combination depending on where he is batting in the... Read Full Story
I for one was feeling sorry for Elijah Dukes on Monday when I learned that he got fined and benched after arriving late from a charity function. His manager, Manny Acta, must be a real hard-ass I thought. Give the kid a break. Then I read this story and not only do I no longer feel sorry for Dukes, I'm kind of hacked off at him.

Yeah, I'll sign that for ya, kid, I ain't even bullshittin'.
The headline of Elijah Dukes being benched doesn’t surprise anyone. He has been arrested something like a dozen times in the past 10 years. He sent a text message to one of his baby mama’s that was simply a picture of a handgun. He left messages to her calling her “dawg” a handful of times and to make sure her motherfucking ass was not riding, because shit was “on”. On being dead. Apparently. Allegedly... Read Full Story
Elijah Dukes might be crazy. He’s been arrested at least three times for battery and once for assault, he’s fathered five children with four different women, he allegedly threatened to kill his wife and a 17 year old girl says he impregnated her. When Dukes was traded to the Nationals the team also hired an ex-police officer in the role of “Special Assistant: Player Concerns”. This person accompanies Dukes everywhere to ensure that he keeps himself free of trouble. So why on earth does Dukes Read Full Story
Coming into 2008, everyone expected the Nationals to be pretty bad...and they were as they finished the season with the worst record in MLB at 59-102. Injuries to Ryan Zimmerman, Elijah Dukes, and Lastings Milledge forced the Nats to use fringe players for a large amount of the season. A few weeks ago, word broke out about a scandel involving GM Jim Bowden and illegally signing Dominican prospects. On the bright side, Christian Guzman finally showed what he can do when he's healthy. Projected... Read Full Story
I felt compelled after watching the last two games against Washington to write a short commentary about the Washington Nationals. As I mentioned last week, The Nats will play a huge role in determining who will win the NL East. To their credit, they are playing hard and to win for the second September in a row. My question is where was the passion from April to August?
On that point, Keith Hernandez called Washington a “misbehaving team” that’s kind and, in the spirit of politeness and... Read Full Story
