Not only starting Werth, but moving him up in the order

To work the count. I would have started Lind myself but he is the guy in charge.

Did you have these criticisms for Matt Williams? Because he was awful.

I did. Frankly, there is no difference in the playoffs between the two

OMG. Any chance at respect just went out the window.

Williams was awful. Dusty must have pissed on your cheerios.

He said "in the playoffs."  So far, that is empirically true.

This team just isn't hitting-that isn't all on Dusty.

Williams was awful with all pitching decisions. It was painful to watch.

The same could be said of the Nats in the 2014 postseason.

But I love how you brush aside Dusty's mistakes but shine a bright light on those of Matt Williams.  Makes sense.

Long history of losing in the playoffs

You seem to want to ignore the fact that this was about his performance in the playoffs

You need to make like Jim Mora and repeat the word "playoffs" to yourself until you understand the central theme of this discussion, and then you can come back and contribute something.

Winning what? He's a postseason loser. He had two good seasons, 15 years ago, and has been terrible in the playoffs since then. He's better than Williams, but that's like being the tallest midget.

Dusty did what a robot could do tonight. Start ace then play 2 best relievers. It's not that hard

Can't tell the difference in the playoffs. Bad lineups, bad bullpen decisions.

It shouldn't be but somehow he made it that hard on Monday. This should have been a clinch game

Dusty has also been given much better teams.

Didn’t agree with a lot of his decisions, but we won.  Hopefully he starts Lind or Kendrick in LF tomorrow.

The racist accusations on this board around criticism of Dusty are out of line.

Disagree - Rizzo has already made his decision and it's not based on winning tomorrow

Start Joe Ross. Throws to the first batter, left handed. Gio takes over. Nats score 12 runs.
