Padres are hateful to us at home.

We have no excuses over the next week. With LaRoche healthy and Zim back and missing Lee and Hamels, we have to clean up against the Phils and Padres.

I thought Iwakuma started in yesterday's game. Apparently not.

The Mariners started some turd from AAA yesterday (Erasmo Ramirez) and the Braves still lost.

Iwakuma should be able to outduel Minor today. Let's hope.

1-0 Mariners lead in the top of the 4th.

Day game on a Wednesday? Strange. Now I need to figure out what channel TBS is.

MLB HD (213 on DirecTV if anyone is looking).

It's on MLB Network. And it's a two-game series between them though both are off tomorrow so it really isn't clear why this is a day game.

Braves look to be going on a road trip after this series(playing at Arizona and at Colorado)and it seems like teams always get a day off right before embarking on a road trip(well maybe not always but often enough).

Why in the name of all that is Holy would someone watch a Barves game if the Nats ain't in it?

Ali the Baseball Cat · « **Reply #336 on:** June 04, 2014, 02:40:02 pm »

Not really watching, but having the Barves being naged around on the TV in my home office has certainly given me a sunny disposition.

2-0 Seattle heading to the 9th.

2-0 Mariners win and sweep the Braves in Atlanta.

Nats have a golden opportunity in front of them tonight and tomorrow. Can cut the division deficit to 1 game with a win today and tomorrow.

PC · « **Reply #341 on:** June 05, 2014, 01:43:36 am »

The first time this season that the Nationals have the highest playoff odds in the division.

That run differential is looking nice now.

Ray D · « **Reply #343 on:** June 05, 2014, 09:46:21 am »

Why would the Nats have a higher probability than the Braves?

Probably run differential and current streak (as predictors for future results).

Gut feel? That's how I project the standings?

Those dogs crap while they run. Pole position is the only place to be.
