I hate when umpires emphatically call the third strike.

It's awesome, especially against the Reds.

If the Nationals do end up getting knocked out of the playoffs in the 1st round, I have to wonder if Rizzo and Johnson will spend the offseason recieiving more criticism over the decision to shut down Strasburg than praise for the greatest season in franchise history.

 

We'll never know if it would have made a difference, but it will always be hanging over their heads all winter, maybe more, especially if The Nats never make it back to the post season between now and 2017 when the Yankees sign Strasburg to baseball's first billion dollar contract. They still have that rotation of Strasburg-Gio-Zimmerman through 2016, but you never know what can happen.

I knew that's what the link would be before I clicked it.

For sure, 100% he/they will.

It'll get better when Stephen gets hurt next year after they took these precautions.

Oh, look, Dusty Baker not realizing his pitcher was toast until it was too late.

Oh, look, Dusty Baker playing the cagey vet over the rookie who isn't ready for the playoff heat.

[Exile on Waveland]

Reds much more entertaining than the Orioles last night. Lots of blaming Latos and one "I wish we'd been swept."
