Although I imagine for someone that is on his feet for a living, it could be an extended recovery from minor surgery.

Shut him down.

There is a small incision on the top of the toe beside the nail. It’s totally healed in a couple of days, but you can exercise immediately after

Way different than it was when I was in high school and had the whole nail removed because it was ingrown. Took months to recover fully.

That sounds a little over the top, doesn't it.

Anyone else get the feeling we're gonna be kinda crappy this year? I just am terrified of a regression because Murphy is hurt, Zimm is hurt, Harper will try too hard, Stras regresses, Gio regresses, Max gets hurt, etc.

This would happen without question. I would bet my entire net worth on it.

Also, what will happen: Someone will respond to this post saying there is no way the Nats will win the WS.

I think things could go wrong and the worst case is that we're still fighting for a playoff spot.

That's kind of my thinking, I feel pretty confident we'll be at least and 87-88 win team but there's a lot of concern for me about crap going wrong. I can't help but worry this is all going to blow up.

We're DC, after all.

Mathguy and Imref will complain about having the parade go by the Trump International Hotel, I'll say that duckboats should only be used if you go into the Charles River, dcpatti will say they should have had better food trucks, Blue911 will complain about not being able to drink in public (though it did not stop him), Mitlen will say Caesar had a better triumph after beating the Gauls, VaRK will complain about not allowing him to ride his motorcycle down Pennsylvania, Skippy will say it messed up her bowling night, Welch will say that if the Nationals had not moved to Minnesota, they would have won another world series with Harmon Killebrew, Slate will say this should have happened in 2012, Bluestreak will complain about the length of the speeches, and MDS and Ali will complain about the lack of places on the route to lock up their bikes.  Only person who will be content will houstonat, who will note that he once shared a mailbox with Anthony Rendon.  The Chief would complain, but nobody listens to dinosaurs.

Good outing for Cole today after a shaky 1st: 2 IP, 2HA, 1B, 3Ks, no runs allowed.

Voth is getting lit up now.
