    Strasburg doesn't have his best stuff today, we're seeing him pretty well, he's getting behind hitters And we do this. Unacceptable
  2. BigSlick
    I'm not really sure what the coaches are seeing in this game but they need to change strategy, and fast
  3. BigSlick
    Ok. This is incredibly dumb

    I'm an ardent Montero Defender but he's been terrible defensively at everything besides pitch framing and he is still struggling with the bat
  5. BigSlick
    Good job everyone

    It was definitely a David Ross start in fact he started off really killing folks on the basepaths. He has what, like 3 pick offs?
  7. BigSlick
    Wow. I'm absolutely furious
  8. BigSlick
    Um. What.
  9. BigSlick
    I really like this start
  10. BigSlick
    Zobi! a good start!

    The other thing: The officiating in this game was horrific. Bad balls-strikes, poor calls on the field and worse reviews. This game doesn't bother me at all for one good reason: we still won.

    Hendricks v. Scherzer also gave a slight edge to the Nats I'm actually kinda shocked Hammel's peripherals are so "bad" (a 3.70 ERA isn't all that awful at the end of the day). I remember him actually pitching very very well for the first starts of the year and only has he seemed completely off course around that leg injury. He's walking an extra batter per 9 from last season, and his strike out rate is slightly lower, so yeah. Get better Jason. I think a big reason is that Hammel is a fly ball pitcher that typically has a FB/HR rate around 12-12.5%, and this year its at 8.7% which would be among the best 10 or so pitchers in the NL (i think). He has allowed only 15% of his runners to score when usually it is about 22-28%. Also his BABIP against is at .251 this year after being around .280ish the last few years. His peripherals suggest he is getting unsustainably lucky. These are bad scary things because I already bang my head against the wall during his starts

    Good Jason today, please

    I've decided Jr. deserves his own thread. His charmed cup of coffee includes nailing a runner at the plate in his first big league inning in the outfield, having a 75% RBI rate per hit, and smacking a game winning double. Seal Boy and Handsome Exit Velocity Man are gonna start having to feel uneasy about their jobs soon. Cuz Albert ain't so bad looking himself.

    Well that was low drama. Nice! Touch up Strasburg and win the series
  17. BigSlick
    Thanks everyone

    Who pitches the 9th? Warren?
  19. BigSlick
    ALBERT ALMORA IS A HERO
  20. BigSlick
    At least Russell is seeing the ball very well the last few games
  21. BigSlick
    I have too much to do to deal with an extra inning game, just win, fools
  22. BigSlick
    Blergh
  23. BigSlick
    The Nationals have scored all their runs on sacrifice flies Pathetic. They should be embarrassed. And we should be winning
  24. BigSlick
    Rondon, K this fool, dude
  25. BigSlick
    After playing with fire for like, 20 at bats against Zimmerman, he finally hurts us
