Don't listen to the naysayers, Zim

"This is my first blog of many this season."

Zim suffering from blog burnout? A plea from The Nationals Enquirer: Please don't quit, Zim!

A day after the DC blogging scene was abuzz over the news of the emergence of Ryan Zimmerman's blog, with reactions from blogging pros and joes alike ranging from outrage to shock to over analysis to derision, here at The Nationals Enquirer we're going on record and fully endorsing Zim's first blog. Hopefully, this is the first of many, many blogs for Zim.

Why?

Since an 0-5 performance the same day as his first blog post (May 3), Zimmerman has been on fire: 8-14, 2 HR, 4RBI.  Coincidence? We think not. But is Zim suffering from blog burnout? He hasn't posted in 6 days, which in blog-time tranlates roughly to 6 months. Keep blogging Zim! Don't listen to the naysayers. We've added you to our blog roll!
