So...no Adam Lind again?

That alone should get the sycophants to stop supporting the blithering idiot manager.

IMHO I would have liked to have seen MAT call 'em all off.

Madson isn't in because Rizzo is up next. If things go south, Perez for Rizzo and then Madson after that.

Inning WSH CHC
5th Zimmerman doubled to deep right, Murphy scored. 1 0
7th Almora Jr. singled to left center, Zobrist scored. 1 1
8th Rizzo singled to shallow center, Martín scored, Rizzo thrown out at second attempting to advance on play. 1 2

Washington Nationals 1
Chicago Cubbies 2

No matter what, you HAVE to pinch hit Lind for Werth.

You can't lose this game with your worst relievers giving up the only two runs. Can't happen. If Contreras beats Madson there so be it.

We're on the road though. We can't use Madson and Doolittle in the 8th and 9th in a tied game. Should have left Kintzler in and walked Rizzo if he must.

That ball absolutely should have been caught. How is that on the pitcher or Dusty? They got the exact result they wanted.

As usual, the bats will lose this game for us...

Our baseball IQ at the plate is horrific. Especially when you compare it to a team like the Astros.

SkinsNatFan21RIP · « **Reply #760 on:** October 09, 2017, 07:15:24 pm »

That's embarrassing

Murph's playin' cricket.

I know I’ve been on every GDT this year. You?

I’m not sure if I’m impressed or saddened by that.

metssuck · « **Reply #763 on:** October 09, 2017, 07:15:26 pm »

Murphy just isn't seeing the ball good. There want a good pitch in that at bat

NatsAllThe Way · « **Reply #764 on:** October 09, 2017, 07:15:43 pm »

A healthy Scherzer and we win this 1-0. Why no Lind? Why no Kendrick? Dusty's like the guy who wanders through the desert saying "I'm going to save my water for when i really need it" and dies of thirst with the bottle 3/4 full just before arriving to an oasis.

No Madson. No Doolittle. No Lind. No Kendrick. I'm still mostly blaming the hitting. The Cubs pitching is not that good. They are going to get hammered by the Dodgers.

Zim chasing junk. cmon man.

Murphy has been mediocre the whole second half of the season

JCA-CrystalCity · « **Reply #770 on:** October 09, 2017, 07:16:21 pm »

Well, this is why Werth stayed in the line up.

Very true. We were hoping the end of last game would spark something but nope back to the same crap.
