Cabrera? Ugh. Way to get the homestand off to a great start.

Hey, with a little luck we could actually win this series. Please? I hope.

Let's keep our winning streak alive!!!

Our luck to play the cardinals for 4 games, I bet Bob Carpenter begged the people who schedule the games for us to play them 4 in a row.

non division game

Every time Cabrera pitches, the opposing team gets a win...(It's a Wonderful Life)

Hopefully he can break the cycle, but man he makes me reach for the Tums when he pitches.

...and St Louis is what....15-7...statistically speaking they're ready to fold any day now...

just noticed, we've got a Mitchell Boggs in a Cardinals Hat but under the Phillies logo....

Go Nats!!!

I find it interesting they hit Pujols in the 3 hole and not the 4.

Lintyfresh85 · « **Reply #12 on:** April 30, 2009, 04:48:49 pm »

I find it even crazier that LaRussa sits Ludwick as much as he does.

As for tonight, I'm not liking our chances.

O shows up big, puts up six runs, but we lose 9-6.

Cabrera gets bombed. Manny says he sees progress.

whenever the Nats play the Cards, i will forever think of:

the night THE BEAST was UNLEASHED!

Cabrera vs Pujols...i'm terrified of that match-up.

just for the heck of it, i'm going to predict a 4 game sweep of the Cardinals.

The Cardinals' 6-9 hitter stretch is absolutely pitiful! La Rue...wow. He'll probably make us look silly anyway, knowing us. I wish we played Josh Willingham more.

Where have I heard this before?

Senators2005 · « **Reply #17 on:** April 30, 2009, 05:43:49 pm »

Two in a row would be like winning the series at this point...

amanuel · « **Reply #18 on:** April 30, 2009, 05:44:51 pm »

Cabrera has the potential to throw a complete game and I am hoping this is the night. Last time I said he would throw a complete game, he didnt do it but he had a solid game. Lets hope my luck continues today

Potential to throw a CG?!

He has had no great starts here like he did with the Birds. It's no surprise really considering he tops out at 90 and has terrible control.

I had the same reaction but refrained from posting my ROFL out of courtesy.

Lintyfresh85 · « **Reply #21 on:** April 30, 2009, 06:09:01 pm »

I imagine every MLB starter has the potential to throw a CG. It's the execution that usually gets in the way.

Just because you suck doesn't mean you can't throw a CG. Anyone Remember Bergmann's 8-inning 4-run CG last year in Arizona? Four solo jacks

Or Manny Acta.

I have a question. Strasburg has been throwing 110-120 pitches a game for Tony Gwynn, why can't major league starters throw the same number?

I do remember when he threw 8 perfect innings.
