At least Clip faces Upton first.

Upton brutalizes Clippard. Soriano should pitch the 8th.

I'd rather have started Lombardozzi than Rendon.

No way, he'd pout since it wouldn't be a save situation

I seem to recall Ayala being shot during a freak hunting accident way back when.

We are going to lose because the offense is lifeless.

Last 16 Nats go out since BJ Upton catch. No add-on runs after 3-run 1st. Not the formula to beat a team as good as Braves

Everyone exhale.

It's only the biggest contest since Agincourt

What is Clippard doing? Last two pitches to Freeman missed by a mile.

PC · « **Reply #112:** September 17, 2013, 03:19:20 PM »

I guess my tolerance for this crap is much lower than the team's.

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #113:** September 17, 2013, 03:20:46 PM »

WHAT THE freak

I hate Tyler Clippard. Gags it up every time vs Atlanta.

High fastball to Gattis why????

Jesus christ, that was the time to bounce your freaking changeup.

Lol. At least I won't have to read more of this fantasy wildcard bullcrap people have been posting. It was never going to happen.

Bullpen's a bunch of choking dogs, what's new.

PC · « **Reply #117:** September 17, 2013, 03:21:43 PM »

Clippard should never again pitch against the Braves.

NATS BASEBALL

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #119:** September 17, 2013, 03:22:11 PM »

This team can't beat Atlanta, period.

Tyler Clippard has choked almost every time with late inning leads vs them.

Should have dumped him when his value was at his highest earlier in the season.

Man he chokes a lot. The 5 pitch walk to Freeman was just as inexcusable.

pazzo83 · « **Reply #121:** September 17, 2013, 03:23:38 PM »

This game seems very much like the first game we played against Atlanta.

nobleisthyname · « **Reply #122:** September 17, 2013, 03:23:49 PM »

Pitiful showing from the bullpen.

cmdterps44 · « **Reply #123:** September 17, 2013, 03:23:53 PM »

Man, 4.5 with a chance at 3.5 tonight was awesome.. now we're down

Slateman · « **Reply #124:** September 17, 2013, 03:24:05 PM »

And the bullpen lets us down
