Nationals @ Dodgers, Game 2

[Slateman]

Better coaching = Better results

Gio and Tanner both stunk under a supposedly good pitching coach in Maddux

[mitlen]

yesterday's false hopes
have proven to be just that
reality reigns

[Slateman]

I’m willing to lose these next 3 games if it means Davey gets canned. A series split will be thought of as a sign of progress.

Bet? Posting privileges for a month?

[mitlen]

It's falling on deaf ears.

[mitlen]

Never paid too much attention but does the organ player at Nats' Park make that much noise?

[ajcartwright]

Joe Beimel, used to love him. We need more cute pitchers on this team.

the Skippy theory:
cuteness equals better stats
why not? all else fails

Gio and Tanner both stunk under a supposedly good pitching coach in Maddux

Gio finished 6th in Cy Young voting in 2017.

Never paid too much attention but does the organ player at Nats' Park make that much noise?

No way, this organ guy’s on coke

Precisely

[imref]

Nats haven’t won consecutive games since April 18.

Streak seems safe.

[Slateman]

Gio finished 6th in Cy Young voting in 2017.

And not a single Nats fan wanted him to pitch in the postseason.

Oh and nice of you to brush over the demise if Tanner Roark and his inability to fix the bullpen.

mitlen's candles were responsible for that...

[Slateman]

Its amazing

[mitlen]

He's over on the end table lookin' at me now.   

[Air Desmond]

Dusty won 95 and 97 games.

Now they can’t win 2 games in a row.

[ajcartwright]

only down by three...
nevermind, haiku won't lie
this game is over

[bluestreak]

You made the assertion. I was just pointing out that it was false. I’m not brushing over anything. It isn’t my responsibility to make your point for you.

[varoadking]

That's it for me kids
Calling it a night right now
Someone turn lights off

[NatNasty]

Gio and Tanner both stunk under a supposedly good pitching coach in Maddux

You sure about that?

[Air Desmond]

Adam Eaton is a 4th outfielder.

[Slateman]

You made the assertion. I was just pointing out that it was false. I’m not brushing over anything. It isn’t my responsibility to make your point for you.

Assertion still stands. Gio was a better pitcher after leaving than he was here. 2.27 ERA as a Brewer

[Slateman]

You sure about that?

Tanner went from a sub 3 ERA to a 4.67 ERA under Maddux.

Gio is currently pitching the best of his career.

[mitlen]

Dusty won 95 and 97 games.

Now they can’t win 2 games in a row.

Yeah but who won the Warriors/Rockets game?

[bluestreak]

You didn’t say he’s better than he was here. You said he “sucked” under Maddux. An ERA+ of 152 is not sucking no matter how confidently you say it.
