I agree PC, he had a couple days, no "lead" to protect, bottom of the order, needed to right the ship.

Managing a bullpen is the part of managing where knowing the numbers is most critical and that's precisely why Matt Williams is so poor at it.

What's an "old fashioned"?

You probably just call them "fashioned."

Have I been here long enough to make old person jokes at you yet?

With the Barfs' loss, I feel like the Nats are playing with house money.

Thanks BiL ... I'm a three fingers neat in a rock glass.

What is your whiskey?

He wasn't as overworked as Clippard. He's just old. Two days was enough.

He can't pitch three days in a row. He can't pitch in three of four days. Managing Soriano is easy.

Clippard has been massively overworked.

It's actually quite good but a lot of work.

From Wiki:
The Old Fashioned is a cocktail made by muddling sugar with bitters then adding alcohol, such as whiskey or brandy, and a twist of citrus rind. It is traditionally served in a short, round, 8–12 US fl oz (240–350 ml) tumbler-like glass, which is called an Old Fashioned glass, named after the drink.

The best mixed drink I have ever drunk was a rum old fashioned at Jimmy's Bar in Frankfurt, Germany. Jimmy's is a super old-school place with wood paneling, a pianist, cigar smoke, and a dress code. Most of the men were in suits, and the bartender was in a suit and tie. I asked him what his favorite cocktail was and he said "a rum old fashioned." I'd never heard of that before, asked him to fix one up, and liquid heaven.
