Oh well.  How come you can't adjust the rotation?  You can alter the lineup.

Because they have to have a certain amount of days off between starts.

Huge hit Schneider!!!! I can't believe those phucking phillies didn't walk him to face Jason. 
you are 100% right - and you can be sure that the fans in Philadelphia will be talking about that decision all day tomorrow. Someone will challenge Manual to a duel

It's surprising to hear that Schneider is LEADING the Nationals in RBIs with 10.

Tough play but it should've been handled. 0-2 count too!

I really hope anyone but Restovich would make that catch with ease.

Agreed.  We have 2 outfielders who have not played a full year in the majors.  But we saved $10 million. 


C'mon Jay, THIS is when it counts! When you're tiring (82 pitches.)

This is why we are the "Lowly" Washington Nationals.. What a bunch of ****.  Bergmann was pitching lights out and then just decides to start walking batters and throwing hanging breaking balls to good hitters.

He had Howard 2-2 in the count.  He had gotten Howard out all night and there was no reason he couldn't right there.

No, I wish he stayed on the DL all season.  Well Bergmann hung another freaking breaking ball but this time he got lucky.

he was ahead 0-2 to Utley: what pitch did Bergmann make on that double? What did Schneider call for? Will this be discussed by St. Claire?? FUNDAMENNTALS

Sometimes you just miss your spots or your breaking balls don't break the way you need them to. The key is to take advantage of a pitcher's mistakes when they make them. Good teams make teams pay for mistakes. The Nationals struggle to make pitchers pay for their mistakes. They usually foul away those pitches.

Where's the Chief predictions?  I assume he says 3 groundouts.
