Kind of depressing to be a Nats fan. Their whole existence they’ve been a laughingstock. Whether they were cellar dwellers losing 100+ games (08, 09) or losing in excruciating fashion in October (12,14,16,17) or missing the playoffs entirely (13, 15, 18).

ESPN had a lengthy in-game interview with Max Scherzer. They asked him
1. How to get MLB players to participate in the Home Run Derby? I like to watch it, but I don't know what you can do to get them to show up.
2. About his stolen base? I have some quickness, but we studied opportunities to try it. I didn't hit as an AL pitcher, with the DH used.
3. His rooting for the Capitals at their game with Ryan Zimmerman (clip shown)? I'm a fan and was happy to support them and see them win. No, I really don't know their players.
4. The All Star game? I'm excited to play in it.

Nats rotation needs a guy like Livan Hernandez. Probably my favorite Nats pitcher of all rime. Ocassionally would get rocked, but more often than not would give you 7 solid innings.

I could be completely off base with this (npi), but shouldn't Turner be behind the base there and be able to bring that throw down in one motion?

It was the Nats celebrating clinching the division (the only thing they ever get to celebrate) in the pirates clubhouse in 2016

Son that’s some piss poor game prep. This team, this city, the fans are all counting on you. Now get your head in the game and let’s win this one for all the little kids wearing Nats garb dreaming of being a big leaguer in the most powerful city in the world.

I’d settle for a busted street light off the Clemente Bridge.

Best way we can come up with...

freak 'em.  Might as well snuff out their hopes and dreams now to prepare for the bleak future they have in store.
