So it's De Grom vs....oh dear, oh dear....  Can any of us bear to watch?   :couch:

Over here, there's an organization called the 'League Against Cruel Sports'. Perhaps I should report the Nats to them?... ;)

We have a lineup, I liked the "who's on first" one much better

Your line-ups need to be updated:

   
Washington Nationals

9 never-gonna-bes and has-beens
not even worth a middling prospect.
               New York Mets

9 actual Major League baseball players.

Crazy that Ruiz is now far and away the best player on this team.

Takes a lot of squinting to see an Mlb lineup. So no takers for Cruz, Franco, Cesar, or Yadi :)

Maybe three months is enough to get it done

Other than Ruiz, there's a decent argument that none of the home starting 9 should even be in the majors.

Maybe Robles as a fourth OF?

And maybe Yadiel as a platoon/bench bat.  But then again, I'm not sure either would get why-is-he-here stares in AAA either.

I just assume Rizzo was overwhelmed with the Soto deal.

Cavalli pitching for the Red Wings right now. Columbus leading 2 - 0 in the second. He's a big guy.
