Can't get much quicker.

At least Hernández and Soto made Gonsolin throw a few more pitches, even if the ultimate outcome of their ABs was the same.

Getting those three out on six pitches is pretty good.

Trea does it again.

Glad Juan and Victor didnt collide

What the freak is that lineup

Ah, Vic. See 95 on the outside corner. Pull it on the ground. Never change, buddy, even if you're hitting .230 with no power.

Give it a week. Robles could easily be the senior man in the lineup.

Are we watching Juan play against his future team?

NatNasty · « **Reply #13:** July 25, 2022, 11:16:22 PM »

Boom!

Look at this

Dave in Fairfax · « **Reply #16:** July 25, 2022, 11:45:20 PM »

Yay! Now it's a bullpen game.

Nice bit of pitching by Machado.

And another error

Dave in Fairfax · « **Reply #19:** July 26, 2022, 12:41:56 AM »

I am guessing there are Dodger fans thinking this pitcher needs to drop the -ta from his name.

I think they give him the rest of the season there, but not much more. A .940 fielding percentage at SS is just unplayably bad almost regardless of what else you're doing defensively.

Maybe, but if they want to unload him, I'd happily take him. He's pretty decent, having seen a lot of his games. He'd be the second-best pitcher in the Nats 'pen.

Huge spot right here with Muncy up and 2 on.

Senatorswin · « **Reply #23:** July 26, 2022, 01:05:49 AM »

nice!!! Edwards had Muncy tied up on that one.

And Carl's Jr. brings the cheese.
