Nationals @ Reds, Game 1

[Mr Clean]

He thought Harper was hit on purpose.    Said you don't hit someone between the numbers and miss the zone that much unless you intend to.

Oh yeah it was on purpose.

[RobDibblesGhost]

Oh yeah it was on purpose.

But do the math....

[skippy1999]

So Strasburg's neck muscle tightened up? That's a thing, really?

[PC]

If you don't have respect for the hitter behind Harper, the game situation doesn't matter.  You hit him, he gets on base and the inning ends.

[RobDibblesGhost]

Stras talking on MASN now.

[PC]

Strasburg needs medical marijuana.

[madj55]

Strasburg needs medical marijuana.

We should trade him back out to Cali.

Treinen needs to pitch to Votto with dedication and purpose. That famous 98 mph sinker that he can't always control.

[spidernat]

There are three guys that could leave tomorrow and I wouldn't shed a tear  ...  Desmond, Ramos and Strasburg.

Espinosa?

[BrandonK]

We should trade him back out to Cali.

Or to CO for Tulo...

[Rich-L]

Or to CO for Tulo...

I don't understand the Tulo love:

1) he is often injured;
2) plays at Coors field; and
3) makes 20 million a year...

Espinosa?

I think Espinosa (as sorry as he can be at the plate) is a good utility infielder.
