If recent new WNFF posters are any indication, then no - just the opposite.

Rizzo's not doing anything.  I want him to trade for Sale, Eaton, and McCutchen, and sign Jansen ("Jensen") and Chapman and Rich Hill and Ted Williams and Kevin Durant.   


Wait, Rizzo traded for Eaton?  F Rizzo, this team is going to be awful and I hate life and nothing is ever good enough to me.  Standards and logic apply to other people, not me. 

(In other words, I second WhiteWhale's pissed-off post from last week.  Also, if I were Rizzo and wanted to troll people at this point, I'd sign Casey Janssen to a minor league deal just to kill off the perfectionist, insane portion of the fanbase that sends back its food at restaurants because the peppercorn aioli isn't in the correct ramekin dish.  You know who you are.)

Sane apply for the Nats?

No. We have money and buy free agents.

gotta say, when I pronounce ramekin, I begin to hear Dueling Banjos.

As for Latos, he has a cute cat.  It's the holiday season, and I want to say something positive.

No.  Incorrect ramekin dish. Misspelled name.  Inadequate personal hygeine and anger management.  But wins?

And just wait 'til I write my review of that dearly departed poster BrandonK.  Man, that dude...

Collin Balester has signed a minor league deal with a Major league Spring Training invite with the Detroit Tigers. We thank God for this early Christmas gift. The Tiger organization has been great to work with. Collin was in the Major Leagues in 2015 with the Cincinnati Reds after 7 out of 7 save opportunities and a .087 ERA in his last 10 - AAA games with Louisville. His health has been great and he is feeling fine throwing this winter. :clap:

Merry Christmas to all the Nats fans! :old:

hey Spin - Merry Christmas to you and the Bally Stars!  Looks like he's throwing more strikes, drawing more swings, and getting less contact in the strike zone.  A nice combination.  The Tigers are a heck of an opportunity.  Good luck!

At work, I may actually join the gym and take some spin classes to get better on my bike.  Inspiration - thanks!

Again - Merry Christmas and enjoy the grandkids.
