Nationals vs Mets, Game 1

[MrMadison]

that was a big strikeout.

[sportsfan882]

what a bad freaking walk.

[MrMadison]

this isn't good.

[eagleskins]

Saul looking like trash again. 

[sportsfan882]

Are you freaking joking? 1-2 pitch and he plunks that piece of crap. damnit.

[MrMadison]

that hit him.

god dammit saul.

[sportsfan882]

god damn this freaking team. Saul was pwning Easley and then he freaking hits him. bull crap.

[natinthehat]

That's the right call, but the umps owe us two tonight.

[MrMadison]

oop, Manny is pissed.

[sportsfan882]

about time Manny. freak these umps.

[sportsfan882]

That's the right call, but the umps owe us two tonight.

Yep.

[MrMadison]

i think that's the most pissed off I've ever seen Manny.

[sportsfan882]

freak, that's horrible by Rivera. Jesus that was bad. Hell, I don't know if we want to keep any relievers off this team on to next year's team. Rivera has been ridiculously awful lately.

[MrMadison]

Saul looking like trash again. 

you were conspicuously absent when hanrahan gave up that 3 run double the other day.

[MrMadison]

freak, that's horrible by Rivera. 

yeah that was really bad.

[eagleskins]

you were conspicuously absent when hanrahan gave up that 3 run double the other day.

I was on vacation.  Still that was more Saul's fault than Joel.  Saul let the bases loaded, and all 3 runs we charged to him. 

[hammondsnats]

other than shell i don't want anyone from this year's bullpen in next year's.  it may be a stretch, but saul has been terrible recently.  joel hanrahan doesn't have it mentally.  the rest are stopgaps.

[MrMadison]

Still that was more Saul's fault than Joel.  Saul let the bases loaded, and all 3 runs we charged to him. 

I agree. but Joel is the "closer" it is his job to get out of those messes. and he crumbled under the pressure. 

not that you'd admit such a thing.

[spidernat]

I don't know what's worse, watching this team roll over like hoes or having to see Debbi Taylor every freaking night. They both make me sick   

[hammondsnats]

haven't heard you bash milledge recently?  because he's pretty darn good huh?!?!

[MrMadison]

haven't heard you bash milledge recently?  because he's pretty darn good huh?!?!

he bashed him in this very thread.

you aren't looking hard enough.

that said, he bashed him for making a GOOD decision.  or rather, for *not* making a stupid one. I dunno what is up with that.

[sportsfan882]

See, that's the thing with Saul. When he's throwing strikes and getting people to chase he's money but when he's missing and the hitters are not chasing he is crap.

[spidernat]

We should've known the inning was over when Brian Schneider stepped up to the plate. Oh but he calls a darn good game. 

[MrMadison]

See, that's the thing with Saul. When he's throwing strikes and getting people to chase he's money but when he's missing and the hitters are not chasing he is crap.

true, but you could realistically say that about almost any pitcher.

[eagleskins]

haven't heard you bash milledge recently?  because he's pretty darn good huh?!?!

Milledge has been hitting.  We'll see if he can keep it up.  It's his intangibles that I bash, which are severely lacking.
