You fill Nats Park with Nats fans, 1/3 of them will be front runners.

well, he still could put Suero on the mound in game 7 with the score tied 2-2 in the 8th. :)

I'm fine with front runners. Asses in seats buying overpriced concessions and their first ever Nats gear will help pay for Anthony Rendon's great grandchildren's inheritance.

they won't be inheriting the money, it'll just be the usual monthly payouts to finish out the contract.

Yeah. Kelly in the 9th and Kelly in the 10th was like night and day.

Things tend to get ugly when a guy who's gone an entire inning without throwing a fastball needs to start mixing them in.  The 9th was a bit of an illusion.  That was throwing hooks to guys he could get out only throwing hooks.

 He was never going to get through the middle of the order only throwing one pitch, and when he started throwing it, the fastball got lit up.   When it came, they were sitting on it.

change this to 'fire Dave Roberts'!

Bo argued that Roberts should have gone to his side-arm lefty guy against Soto, then Jansen against Howie.  His argument was you could possibly strike out Soto, and if you did, then no pressure against Howie as you could walk him.

But Zimmerman has come up clutch many times. I think Zim got screwed on the full count called strike!

I'm biased but I thought there were a lot of questionable strike calls against the Nats.

That home plate ump is the one that screwed the Nats in the NLDS Game 5 in 2012. He's the reason I started asking for robo umps even back then. He's an embarrassment to the sport.

Maybe the same reason Martinez went to Corbin last night and left him in. Kelly looked good the previous inning. He should have pulled him quickly though.

Kelly gave the illusion that he looked good in the previous inning. But really it was the bottom of the Nats lineup that was making him look good by swinging at garbage.
That inspired confidence in him from Dave Roberts but the next inning when the top of the order was batting they stopped swinging at that junk and forced him to throw strikes.. and they lit him up.

And it was glorious.

Go back through and read the first several pages of the 2019 NLDS - Here come the Dodgers!! Lots of people in there thought we should've started sanchez game 2.
Had Corbin and Sanchez started the series and we wouldn't be here right now.

actually, we would possibly wrapped up the series in 4. Sanchez did not lose his start. What makes you think he would have lost game 2? And, we would not have had Corbin available to blow it like he did in game 3.

It was in the strike zone. It was a borderline call because it was basically a bad pitch, it probably wasn’t a strike before umpires were graded against the computerized strike zones.

He went quiet on us. PB69 likes to troll, but he is a good Nationals fan. His silence is concerning.

Of course. I’ve read PB articles on another site. He’s quite intelligent and thoughtful when it comes to the Nats.

I’m just worried is all
