    Some really bad approaches at the plate.

    Can't stand Lackey. It's obviously a different LAD team, but he seemingly always put LAD in a headlock

    .656 OPS in Sept and a sub .800 OPS after that crazy first week with the Nats, but still had a good season.

    I do wonder if the Nationals would feel like a huge weight has been lifted and play a lot better if they won the NLDS.

    To have homefield for the 4th time in the NLDS since 2012 and come up empty every time would be an epic failure.

    I think they are scarier than the Cubs on paper because of their 1-2-3 of Scherzer-Strasburg-Gio but Maddon is a way better manager than Dusty.

    Ray is a bit different..it was his very 1st playoff start in his career and he was coming off a relief outing.
    Hoping for the best against Lackey, but he's usually worthy opposition and a thorn..loads of experience. I don't take him lightly [ no homo]

    Game 5 is still tomorrow.

    I think they do their best to not reschedule more games than they need to.

    The other side of that is maybe they'd celebrate finally making the NLCS like a WS win and take their foot off the gas

    Werth 2nd is why people say things about Baker.
    Maybe they're right?

    That's what I'm hoping, that this being a different LAD team will mean something VS Lackey

    I just feel like the Cubs are going to hit a 2 r HR to win this 2-1 and rip Washington's heart out

    That should be it for Strasburg. At 90 pitches and he is due up this inning, but it is Dusty so he probably leaves him in.

    Agreed. Cubs fans are the worst.

    Nope, he stays... The talk is that the Nats would piggy back Scherzer behind Gio... I like these teams going all out to win and play us.

    Werth's got that lean over and poke the outside pitch in the air down thing down pat now...the only time I've seen it fall in was against us. Natch.
