Just messing around with some things, not likely an option that will ever be enabled.

It might be interesting for occasional short periods of time.

I really want to junk punch you for the freaking avatar. It's bad enough Lindy has it.

As the saying goes, "you can't win a pennant in April, but you sure can lose one."  And we didn't lose it...

Reminds me of when everyone was saying the Redskins would win the NFC-East after we started 3-1.

So you're saying their predictions of success were premature?

cool standings still has us at 48% chance to make the playoffs, 4th best in the NL, behind ATL but ahead of PHI.

I'd like this team to be 27-15 on May 20 when we start a road trip through Philly, Atlanta, and Miami. That's both a realistic target (13-11) and a nice cushion of wins.

At this point we'd have to go 10-5 to make that number but we are playing 5 games against the Pirates and 2 against the Padres. If we can beat those teams up it should be doable.

#Nats C, 1B, 3B, LF, CF, RF, 5th starter, closer, setup man and utilityman have all been hurt at some pt. And they're still in 1st place.

I don't remember Ramos, Ankiel, or Detwiler getting injured. Is my memory that short?
EDIT: Oh Ramos was hurt today. Oh great.

Ramos tonight, Wang was supposed to be the #5, didn't Ankiel miss some games?

Well, I think he's counting Ramos going down today and Wang as the #5.  Ankiel started the season on the DL.

Not sustainable.

it is unless one of our top 3 pitchers gets hurt.
