the bats are going to go silent into the afternoon aren't they?

Moehller throws a bunch of bullcrap low in the zone hoping to get batters to hit weak ground balls. I'm sure we will oblige him even though we should put up double digits again today.

Well, they've gotten some good wood on the pitches. They just need to stick with it and not check out early.

None. I think some of our players are way smarter and more selective than that. Plus don't forget that her husband is a Nats' scout.

Apparently he didn't scout her very well.

spider is so on his game today

sf you have replaced az, you've gone to new lows for you.

True but I thought I was always on my game.

The next time we have an imitate sportsfan game thread I'll make sure to call all his favorite players by their first name.

Yeah, advance scout. So we get to blame him for their consistent poor preparation to face the opposition.

I almost can't blame the guy. He probably has constant nightmares about that voice and face.

that's the way. get quicker outs and stay with the fastball. no more hanging sliders down the middle. if you are going to throw off-speed crap throw it out of the zone.

or don't throw it so the batter will ground out to shortstop hahahaha

JZ looks great so far (knock on wood)

Yikes, the Zimmermann Telegram has 39 pitches already. Could be another five-inning outing...

he's gotta stop going to full counts. needs to just throw fastball for strikes and get quick outs.
