Davey suspended for today's game. Lopez suspended 3 games but can pitch until there's a ruling on his appeal.

That's a weak lineup even by Nats standards.

Need Rosario to rake like a #3 for this to work. Meanwhile, Young's hot obp performance is kind of water amidst guys who aren't likely to knock him in.

We're shootin' for the #10 draft pick next year...we aren't yet satisfied with the collection of 1st round picks we've screwed up over the past decade...

But fear not...dipcrap dave and his band of buffoons will be back!

I'd just hit Crews 2nd from now on

imref · « **Reply #5 on:** April 17, 2025, 12:56:37 pm »

3 game hit streak for Crews.

JCA-CrystalCity · « **Reply #6 on:** April 17, 2025, 01:40:27 pm »

A 1-0 deficit on a hr halfway through the game.

When did that last happen?

Slateman · « **Reply #7 on:** April 17, 2025, 02:05:41 pm »

Starting pitching gave up what? 6 runs in 4 games?

JCA-CrystalCity · « **Reply #8 on:** April 17, 2025, 02:27:10 pm »

2d strike to Nunez was outside and hi

JCA-CrystalCity · « **Reply #9 on:** April 17, 2025, 02:27:56 pm »

Nunez has a good eye.

Try to run him?

JCA-CrystalCity · « **Reply #10 on:** April 17, 2025, 02:29:13 pm »

Sac was more conservative.

Could really use a Wood bomb right here.

welch · « **Reply #12 on:** April 17, 2025, 02:31:41 pm »

This is sad. No other words.

JCA-CrystalCity · « **Reply #13 on:** April 17, 2025, 02:33:56 pm »

Well, if we can't produce a run from a man on and Call, Wood, and Rosario coming up, I don’t know how we do it

Bats have gone ice cold this series.

JCA-CrystalCity · « **Reply #15 on:** April 17, 2025, 02:34:57 pm »

Are we seeing if Davey can break Ferrer now?

JCA-CrystalCity · « **Reply #16 on:** April 17, 2025, 02:45:08 pm »

Convenient for the Pirates that the Nats left and nice pocket of lefties for Borucki to face, to be followed by righties for their closer

welch · « **Reply #17 on:** April 17, 2025, 02:48:27 pm »

Yes, Bob, that's the end of a dismal series.

imref · « **Reply #18 on:** April 17, 2025, 02:49:42 pm »

Game over. We lose.

I was going to go up for this series had the weather forecast been a bit better. Thank you, Mother-nature. 🙌🏻

Pitiful.

Next game is in Denver. So we’re already behind 2-0.

Count Walewski · « **Reply #22 on:** April 17, 2025, 03:30:46 pm »

Blech. I'm glad PNC Park is nice because that was the only highlight of attending this game.

OfftheBat · « **Reply #23 on:** April 17, 2025, 03:35:46 pm »

Lmao @ Rosario batting 3rd.

I feel bad for Davey having to make this lineup work, ngl

JCA-CrystalCity · « **Reply #24 on:** April 17, 2025, 03:55:14 pm »

My first post today was that this was a weak lineup even by Nats standards. Other than Lowe and Wood, lefties v lhp, there's really no one else in that lineup who would start for almost any other team. Even Call is cold
