Bad azz boiz.  Tomorrow I do the GDT to continue this winning streak. 

Tomorrow's has already been claimed.

not to put a damper on things, but Peacock's post-game interview was a bit odd, he just talked about well he pitched.  No mention of the defense behind him.  Hopefully he's just nervous.

Hmmm ya thats def. not what your supposed to say but I don't really mind it (and I don't remember any defensive play of any difficulty while he was pitching, except maybe Morse making a "good-looking" running catch which would have been routine for most LFers).  Like you say he was probably a little nervous. 

Nice win Nats!

Go ahead and take it.  Didn't realize it was a day game, that would be tough for me.  I'll just do Saturday.

  I didn't claim it...I think DPMOmaha did.

I know you didn't.  I was releasing it to him if he wanted it.

[MarquisDeSade]

Cool, didn't realize it was taken but if you're unable I can spot start.  Gotta do something to fill my time waiting for this damn phone to ring.

[DPMOmaha]

Go for it.  I gotta head off to work in a few.  I was thinking night game when I took it.
