GAME THREAD DODGERS/NATS

That was a great frame.

 

With the Cubs winning a WS, the Nationals are probably the only national league club more pathetic than the Dodgers.
I bet when they finally pop their NLDS cherry it will be at our expense.

 

Yeah, God forbid Stripling should have success in the late innings. Dave will definitely lose his shit and put Baez in to fuck things up.

 

What's with the Kershaw/snot camera work?

 

So why pull him?

Hate fucking pitch counts. Stripling just went through the middle of the order like shit through a goose.

Leave him in.

 

Wiped it on Ross and said, "Dave said you'd pitch a complete game but it's snot!!!"

 

Truth be told, it's probably more a nerd thing than a Roberts/Honeycutt thing.

 

This Chargois dude is getting fucking old, man. Every time I see a bp fail like this (and it is very often), I hate the FO more and more.
Just itching to spoil Stripling's effort...

 

This bullpen is so effed up

 

Slider is supposed to break down and away, not back up.

Chargois looked like shit.

 

Turner is the best player on this team even when everyone is healthy and it isn't close. Yeah, Seager has put up a 7 WAR from SS and it's damn impressive but Turner is on another level in terms of presence in the box, quality of ABs, and clutchness. I hate to do the "intangible" thing, but it's true in this case. He can carry a team. Seager and Bellinger are bitches.

 

Kemp and Puig are the only two professional athletes I’ve ever seen that can’t run 90 feet without almost pulling a hamstring every time

 

Nomar doesn't like this

 

Couple of nice ABs for Muncy.

 

The zone’s been big all day but that was bad

 

I'd feel worse for Taylor, but he's been taking way too many called thirds all year.

 

Fields sucks. What's his flyball percentage? 99%?
