The Nats Signed another pitcher with "upside". Denanburg has yet to pitch at any pro level and Seth Romero has to get Tommy john surgery, are the Nats pitchers jinxed with this or what? Mets suck/Phillies on 5 game losing streak. The BRaves are OK/OK We go head to head with them a lot but the Nats failed that fight test last year. Could the Nats climb up the standings to AT LEAST a wild card

Well, the BP try-outs are underway. The guys they called up were 50/50. Mr Mustache aka Bourque pitched two-thirds of an inning, giving up four earned runs on three hits and two walks. He struggled to find the zone during the outing, throwing just 12 of his 29 pitches for strikes.
They Won a series going 3-1. That last game they shOULD have won.....but God damnit they cannot get Max a win. P

Another comeback stifled by silent bats. They just cannot get them going against inferior bullpens the way other teams seem to feast on the Nats BP. Can Rizzo pull off another trade like he did with KIntzler.Madson and doolittle seasons ago? I dunno, that three headed BP monster worked wonders and drove the Nats back up the standings. This years reclamation projects arent panning out. Bear Cl

Welp maybe they can take 3 out of 4 from the Mets, who are L5. Dunno though. Some talk among baseball people about have an "opener" rather than a "starting pitcher". Have Ross or Fedde open the game and pitch two or three innings then let Hellickson come in and finish up the rest of the game. Its unorthodox but its worked, kinda, in Tampa Bay, AND Hellickson has struggled with facing batters

Dusty was a great manager. He dealt with more injuries that one season than martinez is dealing with now and he WON GAMES. Lerners need a lesson in not letting managers go. Whats the .war on managers like Dusty?

The Bullpen is a hot mess. They also cant string offensive games together. Soto can hit fastballs all day but the league figured that out and serve him up breaking balls every at bat. Robles is a disaster on the base paths. DOzier and Gomes are the new Danny Espinosas. They are good defenders but cannot hit worth a damn. I predict Rendon Gets traded for a pool of pitching prospects in July

It goes up it goes down, who cares? Just buy some stocks and sit on them for the long play, cash out when the market, "hits new highs" like it always does in ten years. Dont play the short game.

Thus the dangers of trading away ALL of your draft picks for one player. Never should have come to this. Hell even Luck is out hurt right now.

Its not a decent thing to do unless its in a socially acceptable "public" place like a nude beach or a locker room. Otherwise its just not right.
