It looks like Kearns may have been working on that glitch of his that had him lifting his arms and bailing on inside pitches.

Kearns is still batting better than .190

Estrada brings nothing to the table.  Here comes Rivera.

Estrada is mega-fat. shouldnt he be forced to go to the minors to get into shape

He did do that in this AB, though. But he just got under that last pitch. That was a nice swing.

But he certainly has cleaned a few in his time.  He's a biscuit away from three bills, it appears.

Milledge has been completely owned by Glavine tonight. 

Glavine is in his head.

He was saying it's now tied, so Redding can't get the win. As if the bp wouldn't have given up that run.

I thought he was saying that Redding needed the Nats to score in the bottom of the inning for Redding to get the W but he had the inning mixed up.

we have too many automatic outs in our lineup. from 6 on down our lineup tonight is pretty weak

He usually takes things from the table.

2-2 and Redding pitched six innings. All that needs to happen for my prediction to come through is that we score one more run, they score none, and the win comes in nail-biting fashion. :)

He's always been around that size.

There's that fear motivation again in our pitchers.  Rivera has a 2-2 count with a chance to get someone out, and he throws two breaking balls that barely even touch the zone.  He could easily throw something better than that right there.

For someone who supports our team, you sure seem to hate everyone on it...

Manny is killing this team by leaving Estrada out there.

Estrada has absolutely nothing on his throws.. Man that's freaking gross. Manny is clueless.  Nieves throws a rocket.  Wow, that was one of the worst throws I've ever seen..

Is Nieves hurt?  I just don't understand this.  Even AJ Pierzynski or Paul Lo Duca could've thrown out Matt Diaz right there.
