I simply hate the freakin' Braves.   Ain't liked 'em since they left Milwaukee.

I hope some of you still have hope for this season.

The Fightin' Nats. We can do it again just as we did earlier on.

(being vague so as not to jinx :P).

ankiel is raking. wowwwwwww

Not sure if it was here or the MLB board, but an Ankiel fan came on and said that he will get unbelievably hot for a few weeks at a time, really carry your team hot.  We seem to be seeing that now.

He did get 25 HR/60+ RBI once over a full season. If only he can be more consistent.

He was really injured before, but this is unsustainable as well.

wow i have only just seen the shot, i was listening to it but had to some work and didn't see the video.. i'll admit to still being partial to Roger Bernadina, but right now Ankiel can stay as long as he want if he keeps hitting it out of the ballpark.

what a play

I've always wondered how much pitching for so many years has made him a better hitter. Then again, it's not like Lannan is a good hitter, but still.

The whole point of the poster is that he is NOT consistent.  He is prone to torrid hot spells, and long cold spells.

Ankiel is 21-for-62 (.339) with 3 doubles, 5 homers and 14 RBI since being activated from DL, July 1.

per Nationals PR.

If Lannan gives up a run here he should be yanked immediately

Well he's been hot for a month now. Let's see how long he can keep it going.

This is still a .500 team.

We keep clawing our way back to .500, only to fall back down again.  Repeat.

I'd rather go 10 up, fall back to .500, then go 10 up again.

We're 10 games out (hopefully soon to be less, cough cough) with plenty of baseball left.

Keep the faith.
