[varoadking]

Who did they issue Blanton's jersey to?

[mitlen]

Time to go back to Bob Prince.

Get the sub-horn ready.

Comparative dates on which the Nationals notched their 67th win, each season:

2012 - 7th August (110th match of season)
2017 - 9th August (112th match)
2016 - 10th August (113th match)
2014 – 15th August (120th match)
2005 - 26th August (128th match)
2013 - 28th August (132nd match)
2015 - 2nd September (132nd match)
2011 - 11th September (144th match)
2007 - 17th September (150th match)
2006 - 22nd September (153rd match)
2010 - 26th September (156th match)
---
2008 - finished 59-102
2009 - finished 59-103

One reason why this year's model hasn't been able to gain ground on the 2012 edition is that from 2nd through 21st August (during which their 67th win occurred, the 2012 edition went 16-4 and never lost back-to-backs. Assuming the 2017 edition keeps up its current pace, they may be able to catch the 2012's afterward since that 16-4 run was followed by a five-match losing streak.

Can't believe they slipped back behind that 2012 team, but this team has all the injuries...
