Honestly, they are and they should be. Up until the last week or so, they've been able to hide behind their pathetic offense and that it didnt matter what they did because the offense wasnt going to put up more than 3. Its different now with Rendon and Turner back. They have a chance in games.

Now when a reliever gives up a home run, its more noticeable

Painful!!! Oh god this hurts!

what an idiot

It just sucks that Barraclough couldn't get through more than 1/3 of an inning. The bullpen has been overworked so this isn't what they needed.

This is pathetic. The bull pen is so bad, it would not be any worse bring up the entire pitching staff from all the minor league teams on the next day off for a try out. And then replace almost all the pen with them can’t be any worse

Guess we don't have to worry about whether to use Doolittle for a third day in a row. How considerate of his fellow bullpen mates.

Where are the Rizzo dick riders? This bullpen is an embarrassment.

And Jennings is trying to top that for craptiest performance of the night.

Lol this game blew up in a hurry

RobDibblesGhost · « **Reply #289 on:** May 17, 2019, 10:30:03 pm »

Shut up FP

spidernat · « **Reply #290 on:** May 17, 2019, 10:30:27 pm »

it's all Martinez fault

Air Desmond · « **Reply #291 on:** May 17, 2019, 10:31:48 pm »

Aside from the rotation (Scherzer, Stras, Corbin), this team is absolutely dreadful. There’s nothing to be be encouraged by or look forward to.

Scrapple · « **Reply #292 on:** May 17, 2019, 10:31:50 pm »

The only thing we’ll have left to root for soon will be to not let Scherzer get hurt so he can be dealt to a contender for a prospect or two. 😢

Anyone see that play last night where the Orioles botched a play on an infield grounder and allowed two runners to score without getting an out? Guess the Nats wanted to get in on that action.

NatNasty · « **Reply #294 on:** May 17, 2019, 10:33:32 pm »

Grace would've struck out the side.

Scrapple · « **Reply #295 on:** May 17, 2019, 10:36:06 pm »

FP, maybe the umpire will pull out a “bonus ball” so we can hit a 6-run homer to tie the game???

Yes!

And I said to myself, "at least the Nats aren't that bad." How foolish of me.

If Martinez isn’t fired after Sunday’s game he won’t be fired until the end of the season. We might soon be in 4 year plan mode. 😳

I am calling this the disco inferno game because I want them to burn this mutha down. Rendon and Stras to the Yanks, everything on the table.
