Nationals @ Padres, Game 1

[Air Desmond]

Gomes is worse than Wieters. How is that possible?

[GataNats]

Stop playing Gomes

[Air Desmond]

Corbin took the mound with a 4 run lead. He gets all the blame for this loss.

[mitlen]

Lulu and Lobo are gettin' on my nerves.

MAT has no business being in the big leagues...

Someone said he's gonna hit a dong in the 8th.

What’s Parra have to do to get a start? He’s done nothing but hit and be a spark since getting here. No reason Taylor should be in the lineup over him.

Bob and FP talked about the amount of territory the CF has to cover at Petco being the reason for Taylor in center.

Do we not have a right handed pitcher available? Given the Padres lineup, I’d probably have tried one.

I was thinking maybe Guerra or McGowin.

Spare me. I don’t care how good his defense is. His bat is unplayable right now.

[mitlen]

All aboard the FP excuse train.

[Air Desmond]

Offense scores 4 runs and went to sleep.

I'll pass it along.

My goodness, how many ex-Nats' relief pitchers are floatin' around MLB?

[skippy1999]

My goodness, how many ex-Nats' relief pitchers are floatin' around MLB?

And how many of them are better than they were for us?

[mitlen]

And how many of them are better than they were for us?

...   and/or better than what we have now?

[bluestreak]

Maybe Stammen can come through for us.

[bluestreak]

And how many of them are better than they were for us?

I think the easier question is how many aren’t...

[mitlen]

That was a bullcrap catch.

[Air Desmond]

Nats have 1 hit since the 1st.

[Air Desmond]

Sad times when being 7 gb is looked at as a positive.
