In playoff games started by Scherzer, Strasburg, and Jordan Zimmermann, the Nats are 0-7. 0-7!! And that includes one brilliantly pitched game by each of them. It seems clear that strong starting pitching will win regular season games, but really doesn't mean much in the post-season. Our bullpen seems deep going into next year (who knows if our manager will use our best ones in crucial moments), but what about the lineup? Eaton replacing Werth seems to be the only change we will see next year. Is that enough? Do these guys have the DNA needed to win in October?
Are you happy with another NL East title next year, with an early October flame out? Or, do we need to do something more radical?
