The Nats have a grand total of 0 runs this season in 11 games vs the Braves bullpen. :lmao: :lmao:

Or fire him for serving up ice cream not made to order?  :shrug:


Not going to happen. He really doesn't say anything other than "don't worry, be happy." Loudly. Over and over.

Significant reason why both teams are where they are.

Clutch hitting and bullpen depth/reliability.

To be fair, Clippard has been as reliable as they come.

No Kimbrel tonight. He's pitched three straight.

Davey post game: "we had the right guys in there, we just couldn't get it done"...  Desmond: "We need to stop talking about it and just out there and execute.  I still believe in this team's chances, we're way better than what we've shown".

Well, to be honest, they're usually 0 for something with runners in scoring position.

Mattheus is not the guy you want in the game with the minuscule strike zone this umpire has.

Time for Mattheus to put it out of reach.

Nats will say they hit some rockets right at defenders



The Nats obviously have never heard of Willie Keeler ...

Hit 'em where they ain't!

Why not use crap ass Soriano? At least he throws strikes. Mattheus stunk before the injury and stinks again after it.

Not hating on Clippard at all, I agree. Just they have 3 or so Clippards and then Kimbrel.

OT Alex Avila strikes again with a three ruck jack to put the Tigers up 4-2 in the 9th.

Yep, best thing he can do is stay out of Ian's way.
