This team's baserunning is simply the worst.  They need a baserunning coach next season.

Hope the base running doesn't bite us in the tush.

Don't know, but that first base coach needs to go...with all the others.

Load up on lefties next year. At the plate and on the mound.

Honestly, need one of each at this point. Heyward/Reddick and Smith/Doolittle/Sipp/Bastardo

Lol. He had that one instance of getting picked off the base that first week he started playing full-time and the narrative is set. I guess we're conveniently forgetting all the pick-offs of Span, Harper, Zimmerman, etc.

Choke on that home run, Harper-hating Met fans. MVP. MVP.

42 home runs puts Bryce even with Roy Sievers, 1957, the first Washington player to lead the league in home runs. Also even with Harmon Killebrew in 1959, which was the break-through season for Harmon: not a mistake, not a bonus-baby-bust, never going back to the minors, headed toward the hall of Fame, we thought.

Bryce Harper and Joe Hardy.
