Line up card, Barrett playing the bunt; three-ball-walk; Desi floppin' around, etc.  ...  somedays watching the Nats is like watching Little League.   Or as Uncle Ray said on Barrett's play, "You make that play in little league."

Scot Spratt's choice surprises me, but the rest seem accurate. Ben Lindbergh looking to the future, and Alex Cora, our Alex Cora from the 2011 Nats, seems to think that Bryce Harper has "arrived". I do, too.

I can just imagine someone watching, looking at his eyes, and checking the owner's manual on how to adjust the color.

You don't adjust the color anymore? :old:

I met a relative's neighbor, who has a dog with the exact same eye condition as Scherzer.  I thought that dog had been a fight or had gone crazy, until she told me about the eye condition.

Max Scherzer owes me $2,000 for having two different colored eyes, plus a $2,000 late fee for not paying his other fines.

I am not even sure what pieces not fitting means in baseball so yes he belongs for sure in a GDT.

NHL and NBA seasons are over so for all intents and purposes this is the time when MLB should be in center stage. But if you turn to ESPN you wouldn't know it. They are still covering the NBA. :lmao:

7th and ahead of the Rays.  :hysterical:

Baffling we're not in the 20's, but expected postseason berth has a large effect on the rankings, if you look at the numbers on that list. Nats still have a 62% chance, better than the Mets, because everyone is still banking on this rotation/healthy lineup and everybody still thinks the Mets are jokers.

Harold Reynolds on the Nationals - "The whole organization is a mess, right now.  It hasn't had a good vibe for two or three years."
