Braves just said Nats have the worst bullpen era going back to 1930 Phillies

Random rant, but is anybody else sick of us playing guys in the wrong position? Tena should be at 3b and Rosario should be at 2b. CJ Abrams isn’t a shortstop. Dylan Crews is a CF, not a corner outfielder. It’s just ridiculous. What happened to Nunez? He’s been MIA since Abrams return.

Don’t let Ruiz batting average fool you, he stinks. Slap hitting catcher that’s signed through 2032.

I always thought Young is a 4th outfielder at best. Latest in long line of powerless Center Fielder, But James Wood is a power hitter but a liability in the field, Most of team are partial pieces of a total players.

It’s over for the Nats. Mets get a week of games at home against the White Sox and Rockies later this month which is a gift.

This is getting totally out of control. Working on six years of garbage now which is long enough. Can’t wait for a new owner, general manager, and completely new coaching staff. Hard to want to fork over hard earned money to watch this three ring circus. The wheels have fallen off the wagon.

Nats do it on the cheap, trade key players and start a new 5 year plan. But the O's sold 40% to investment group. They took control but only look an money. Refused to sign a #1 in their window. They will implode soon too. Investment brokers only want return and will kill major sports. Be careful what you ask for.

Can’t get much worse. At least we’ll get a look at a new form of crap.

Give somebody new a chance.

I've never said it before, but I think Davey has had it. He looks like this stuff is getting to him. The misfit toys. I don't buy his strategy, etc... much of the time, but the performances of the players has to be frustrating him, and to run into a streak of Laz Diaz and other rando calling umps, as well a combo of balls smashed at opponents fielders, and now players pressing into bad decisions.

That call on Crews to end the game, and that expression on Davey's face... I think it's legit to think the talent level of the team is better than it has shown and Davey just hasn't been able to get them to perform consistently at their level. The difference this time is it is legitimately eating at him.

TalkNats says that one player has expressed anger that the coaches aren't backing up the players enough on bad calls by umpires.

The pitch that ended the game was way above the zone and should have been a ball. Can't fault Crews for that one.

What does TalkNats say about the anger that fans have expressed over this entire bullcrap organization?

dunno. Probably amazed that folks still watch, buy tickets, and pay attention.
