« Gio Gonzalez on the Jumbotron at the Caps-Bruins game. | Main | Hey Peter Angelos... »
And there's Gio Gonzalez wearing the Curly W for the first time at his introductory press conference at Nationals Park on Wednesday. Perfect fit. (screen cap via TV/MASN.)
From his press conference, the biggest adjustment NatGio has to make for playing in the NL?
"Swinging the bat will be my biggest adjustment."
Love this guy.

How dare he take Matt Chico's number

Wow. I admit I really did not even consider how much I would enjoy seeing that. I was so used to seeing him in his A's uniform.
+1/2St.

Such a nice young man too! While I think his pitching will be a great addition to the team, I think his presence in DC will be an even greater addition to the community.
As for his number, he's just following in the Nats ace tradition: Zimmermann came first and had #27. Then came Strasburg wearing #37. Now is Gio in #47. :)

His press conference was refreshing, too - so well spoken and poised up there, and thoughtful answers to the questions. Ordering myself a #47 jersey tonight!
