UPDATE: @frankstrategies alerts us that this Twitter account might not be official.  Whew.  We still however think this would be a great idea for a fan give-away.

—————————————————-

It’s no mystery that the Nats need a little help on the field.  We also know they can’t spell . But now we learn that they’re terrible at things that should come relatively easy, like Twittering.

During their most recent blunder, the Nationals decided to show off their amazing social networking skills.  Unfortunately, like their record, it’s not impressive.

Although this story is far more interesting than anything coming out of their clubhouse, it still might help if their auto-re-tweet didn’t pick up stories about marijuana growing operations.

Although if this is any indication of their next fan give-away promotion, they might be on to something.

NOTE: A few fans might think we’re being too tough on the Nats.  Look, we’re not asking for a two-game winning streak, or looking for them to raise their record to something a little more respectable — like 15 games below .500.  We’re simply asking them to pay a little attention to detail.  They’re not trying to land a man on the moon – they’re twittering.  Too much to ask?
