did anyone catch Carpenter's postgame interview with Scherzer? He asked him how it felt to be facing off against the team they (Scherzer and Carpenter) grew up rooting for. Scherzer told him that he didn't care because it's all about DC.
He was partying with everyone else...gotta think he's GTG...
Isn’t that 4 days rest for Max?
Nice speech, coach. Real classy. Special thanks to dumbass rookie Randy Arozarena for the live feed....Eff the Cardinals.We're coming for you, buddy.
Roster construction will not. be an easy task. We absolutely need more pinch runners at the expense of dead beats in the pen.
Seven games is a different beast. You need someone to soak up some outs in the pen, but the real problem here is Robles and Suzuki - the Nats already were playing with 24 with Robles hurt, and Suzuki will be on the roster even if he's missing a game or two, so what happens then? QuoteSuzuki is tough. Catching as many games as he has proves it. Rizzo said that if he doesn't have bone showing he is a sure bet to play

Nationals have to go with a more standard bullpen for at minimum a few games. I don't think our starters can hold up another 7 game series going all hands on deck, unless it is an elimination game.
It seems that if Robles was close yesterday, that he should be good to go by tomorrow.And I've seen Suzuki look almost dead before and be back the next day.
That's the gist of what FanGraphs is saying (also noting that the Nats will be unable to feast on left-handed pitching)https://blogs.fangraphs.com/postseason-preview-st-louis-cardinals-vs-washington-nationals-nlcs/
Wouldn't mind seein' Michael A. Taylor gettin' some time in RF.
I'd much rather have Eaton's bat in the lineup. His walk started the 10th inning.
Looks like the rain will clear out of saint looey by tomorrow night but looks real cold for both games.
