might be a late start for you guys, but I should be able to catch a few innings

[JCA-CrystalCity]

thanks for setting this up.
we win, no obligation to keep going on a streak.

Where's Logan Evans on their pitching pecking order?  Would he be up but for injuries?

[JCA-CrystalCity]

#10 on last year's FG Seattle prospects list. Looks like they took a mediocre college pitcher who could spin a breaking pitch, developed him adding velocity, and made him into a starter. Came up when Logan Gilbert got hurt. Has had 5 starts, 27 IP, 3.33 ERA/ 4.92 FIP. In MLB, velocity on the fastball hs been 93.1 mph. May be his last start because Bryce miller is due back Sunday.

Cutter could be a problem for all our lefties

[The Chief]

Can't believe I used to stay up for full west coast games.  Ah, youth

[Natsinpwc]

Hope I can stay up. 

I’m watching Super Bowl 52.  Philly Special and then cut to a shot of Matt Patricia.  Never gets old.

I'm here for the duration

evening all

If I make it the first time through the order, I did good

[Slateman]

Then again, this is already going quick

[RobDibblesGhost]

Game. We went down quietly on 9 pitches and Parker is having trouble getting the first out. 3-0 now.

[Slateman]

Welp

[IdahoNat]

All that late night build up for this. And we dont' even have an out yet.

[Natsinpwc]

Hope I can stay up.

I stand corrected. No reason. 

[para]

Parker started with a 3.80 era and was 9th in the league. I'm old cause I remember when a 3.8 was in the lower third and people lost jobs for that era. Well its not that anymore for Mitchell.... sigh

[Slateman]

Think Parker needs a reset

[RobDibblesGhost]

I think our offense must have missed the flight to Seattle. No sign of it at all so far.

My son in law just FaceTime me, he sitting two rows behind the Nats dugout. I told him he’s not bringing them much luck

Parker's ERA hasn't been below 4.00 for a while.  Was 4.39 going into this game.  The last few starts have not been good.

Now we have someone to blame!

[para]

I blame Frannie or Carp for passing the wrong info then

[GataNats]

Parker doesn’t have it, and why does Bell keep playing?

[Slateman]

Could have been a lot worse

[IanRubbish]

Parker usually gets cooked with ball fours, not hard hits.  Wonder if this is scouting, the Mariners, or something else.
