Rosario looked like he was flailing, but it seems to have worked out for him.

And... an early 0-3 hole

Why does Bell keep playing?

Seems as if every single one of our returning pitcher’s velocity is down. Irvin was hitting 97 last year. He’s sitting at 90-91 now

There’s your gold glove LF.

They’re trying to irritate you.

Zuck and others reporting a Nats coach collapsed during BP and was taken to the hospital. No word who yet.

I read a post from someone who said it was whoever was throwing batting practice

Tena is playing decent 3rd base this year

Schwarber going to look good in Nats City Connects next year when we sign him as our new dh/vet leader

GataNats · « **Reply #14 on:** April 30, 2025, 08:01:50 pm »

Good job by Young getting on base

Dave in Fairfax · « **Reply #15 on:** April 30, 2025, 08:03:50 pm »

Bell's swings at those low pitches look like me swinging a driver with all my might and managing to hit the ball to the ladies' tee box.

GataNats · « **Reply #16 on:** April 30, 2025, 08:04:31 pm »

Cannot keep Bell on this team.

Someone needs to clue dave into the fact that the DH spot is normally filled by players who can make contact.

Of all the players we jettisoned, I miss him the most...

Call has to play v lhp.

Crews and Coles have to figure out what the Phillies are throwing at him

Irvin has nothing tonight

GataNats · « **Reply #21 on:** April 30, 2025, 08:21:27 pm »

Irvin throwing 89mph four seamers

Dave in Fairfax · « **Reply #22 on:** April 30, 2025, 08:32:29 pm »

When are we going to get an anniversary highlight of Jose Lobaton as helmet taker-off guy? Clearly that was a key factor in Rendon hitting those three homers.

Good inning for Poche. Credit where it's due.
