I have to disagree. This isn't the same old same old. This is the most unwatchable, worst team we have ever fielded. The pitching is what it is. Aside from that, this team is just atrocious. By far the worst in our history, every night the lineup competes with the worst lineups in the history of the team. And we've had some drinkers for lineups.
Further, there really aren't any players, that I at least, feel like I can get behind, root for, enjoy watching, whatever. Part of it is their offense, or lack thereof. But we don't have guys like Johnson, Wilkerson, etc. Guys you like, guys that are awesome people, guys that are fun and entertaining to watch. This team is full of boring, awful offensive, so-so defensive, unentertaining bores. Our record is an out and out miracle, that we actually are having one of our better years record wise. But when it comes to watching the games, sitting three hours every night... This team is by far the worst ever in Nats history. By far. Every season since 05 I've gone to at least 60 games a year. This year I have been to two. Saying this team is the same old same old is an insult to our 100 loss seasons, even if we only lose 90 this year. This team is just beyond bad, from offensive to a lack of personalities. Werth might be close to Dunn output wise, but as far as rooting factor or fan favorite? Werth isn't even close. No one is a huge fan of Werth the way they were Dunn. He might be a decent ballplayer, but he doesnt have the personality. That's a huge problem with this team, even if they weren't hitting .230 as a team. Add that in, and they are beyond unwatchable. I never thought I could care so little about a Nats team, about an entire season... But this year... Wow, I just can't stand this team. Which one can tell since I'm not even posting hardly at all anymore, at least in the Clubhouse section. I just can't emphasize how unenjoyable, unentertaining, and bad this team is.
Maybe the worst of all is the lack of caring by the FO. We haven't DFAed a single position player despite the worst offense in baseball. How the freak is that possible? On top of everything I've mentioned, we aren't even changing anything up, giving a reason for hope, or at least a change of scenery to keep us engaged. The fact Stairs is still here is like Rizzo pissing on all of our faces and calling it rain. Hell, we don't even have anyone in AAA to root for, give hope for the future, inspire us, etc. This team is awful from top to bottom. And now they are starting to play like it, and losing games like it, and their record is starting to show it. Just a truly unwatchable team, period.
Spot on man.
This team is just miserable. A bunch of low ceiling players who won't be here for more than a year or two. Zimmerman is hurt. Werth looks miserable even if he is a true professional. Our entire team is playing like a group who thought they could compete for .500 in the preseason and all of a sudden have realized it won't happen. They're sort of like the fans.
