Nationals @ Blue Jays, Game 2

[Natsinpwc]

Eh, we'll get 'em tomorrow... 

probably; hard to get swept. 

[tomterp]

DANIEL MURPHY AND ADAM EATON ARE AUTOMATIC OUTS RIGHT NOW. Sit them.

I can't wait until Zimmm comes back, we need some fresh automatic outs.  And I'm not seeing the GIDP that I've come to expect either.

[tomterp]

Where’s that wall when you need it?

They're working on it as fast as they can.

[mitlen]

dave is beginning to sound like Matt Williams.

[spidernat]

We’re getting worse as guys come off the DL.

That happened in 2015.

[mitlen]

That happened in 2015.

IIRC  Dusty seemed to feel an obligation to play the guys whether they added anything to the team or not.

[Air Desmond]

My lineup tomorrow:

Turner SS
Taylor CF
Rendon 3b
Soto LF
Reynolds 1b
Goodwin RF
Difo 2b
Kieboom C

So terrible it just might work

Eaton is 6 for 21 since returning even after an 0-4 today; makes no sense to bench him.  Agree that Harper needs to sit for a game.  They missed Adams today; if he is OK I would put him back in the lineup. 

[bluestreak]

I’ll report in first thing tomorrow morning.

I’m interested to hear.

No.  Just No.
Eaton is fine and Murphy needs ABs. He’s not going to get better by sitting him and he hasn’t been back long.

That being said, MAT is batting .303 and has an OPS of .900 over the last month and has a 9 game hitting streak.  Is a month long enough to consider that a trend for all you naysayers?


The person to sit is Bryce, but that won’t happen. He needs a day to two or three off to get right.

Bruce needs an offseason

[Mathguy]

That's the biggest insult I have heard since before Dusty

[Jeff in Gaithersburg]

Uncle Ray's fired up  !!

He stopped short of saying Long needs to go but he was clearly hinting at it.

well, spider says that's an "asinine" comment, so....

[DCFan]

Please do.  I felt like they were taking terrible, terrible advantage of me, and as a nation we just can't allow ourselves to be served bad coffee like that ever again.  Previous administrations put up with it but the new Sheriff is going to fix this injustice.   

I’m pleased to report that the Canadians produce an excellent cup of coffee and I sure hope Trump doesn’t put coffee on the tariff list.

Glad you liked it. At least better than in and out burger, which while good, I found to be overrated.

Tim Horton’s is a great coffee and it’s reasonably priced. In-n-out is reasonably priced but it can’t come close to 5 Guys.

Hell with Tim Horton.   Start today's GDT.

Er, I'm heading out for FD lunch with the fam. Yeah, that's the ticket!
