We can't be shut-out again. Not by the Reds - we just can't...

Not likely in that park against that staff. However we could easily give up 10 runs.

Hitting 99 eight pitches into the game.

Well maybe we can do both.

Rizzo is ruining this kid by trotting him out every 5 days when he should be in Rochester. This can’t be good for his psyche.

Guaranteed another shutout. 💯

It's an interesting contrast tonight. Both Ashcraft and Adon started last year in high-A. I saw Ashcraft live in AA several times last year. Dude's a horse and has two nasty pitches that he commands. If he gets the third working, he has #2 starter upside.

Just another poor effort by the scouting department

Actual good throw by an infielder

Is Davey’s seat getting warm? Might be time for a new voice to lead us into the future.

It may be but you can’t fire him with the ownership issues

Adon, while doing his AAA season in the majors, is out-pitching all the Nats' starters except Gray.

Fedde also sucks less (and actually has a lower ERA than Gray).

A WHIP of 2 is not getting the job done

Some cute chanting in this dump

We all expected the Nats to suck this season, but at least we could depend on Soto to be worth watching. He’s scuffling mightily.
