Cool.  We need somebody to be ready if / when they pull the plug on Chico.  Last I saw Clippard was throwing pretty well too.

14 scoreless innings, huh?  Pretty nice!

If JB is smart enough to bring him back up.  He told him he couldn't promise to do that.  that was in one of the mlb.com quotes I believe.

I remember you complaining that one of our pitchers had accumulated stats against minor leaguers (which was false) :lol: But when Bergmann does it it's impressive? :rofl:

Huh?  Sorry, but I'm so tired right now that I honestly don't have a clue what you're talking about.

What's so crazy about Perez is that his numbers are based on "3 games vs. Accelerated MINOR LEAGUERS"

That was NOT true.

Personally, I don't think a newbie should be our Opening Night starter.  More specifically, it should go to who looks to be our best pitcher and I'm not convinced that it's Perez.  I'm glad he had a good outting, but it all his other outtings this spring have been terrible!! 


You obviously wanted Bergmann to get the OD nod :?


Nope!  He's [Bergmann] having a pretty good ST.  I think he should be considered for OD.

And his ERA has plummeted to 3.68.  If you remember, it was 12.00 after his first start and 10.73 (I believe) after his second.

According to Don or Bob, He's had 14.2 scoreless innings.  As long as he maintains, he should be back.  I'm guessing in a month.

If he has 2 more decent starts he'll be back by the next homestand in about 10 days.

I do too!  Like any other Nats player.  I don't ever remember rooting for one to fail.

(But I'm getting real close with Colome right now)

I was just messing with kimnat but as you see she put me in my place :?

I can't say I'm rooting against Colome but I desperately want him gone from my team.

That's so on point.

Jorge Julio = Armando Benitez  (we may need to stay away from those hard throwing Dominican releivers :lol:)

You can add Winston Abreu to that list too. Felix Rodriguez also.

I like Hanrahan. I know he's maddening and I usually have my hands over my eyes when he pitches. But his slider is off the table. He has been a starter all of his career,to give up on him after 6 weeks is foolish to borderline stupid.

So how many more losses are you willing to sacrifice just to give this chump a chance to figure it out?  Stuff means nothing if you can't control it.

I dislike Felix Rodriguez even more than I dislike Colome.

I like him for hitting Lo Duca after Pedro plunked three Nats.
