How can it be 100% when we haven't actually clinched yet? I mean it's all but ours at this point, but I would say there is still like a .001% chance we could blow it.


Less than a 1 in 1000 chance we blow it? I still find their extra decimal place hilarious

On the bright side, we probably won't have to face Stanton when we play Miami.

Right. And I feel bad for thinking that but that's what I thought.

Why do we have such a wussyfied fanbase that is always looking and hoping to avoid facing the best competition!  :bang:

Division championship odds are now at 100.0%

We are the only team in MLB with 100% odds. Even the Orioles are at 99.8%

BP shows 99.7% Division, 0.2% WC, and rounded total to 100.0%.

If the Nats go 8-9 in their last 17 games they get to 91 wins. The barfs would have to 16-0 in their last 16 games just to tie.

I normally don't concern myself too much with what happens to players not on the Nationals, but what happened to BGS was scary, and sucks that happened to him in an MVP type season.

Because at the end of the day no one remembers or cares who a team went through to win

I might too, but I can't cheer about Stanton.  Breaking a leg is fully recoverable.  An injury to the face, maybe the eye, isn't always.

That idiot also predicts Nats losses practically every night so his record is poor.

They did crush the Mariners lately. Don't sell them short.
