Now it's just 2 runs thru 4. Soroka was looking good.
Just throw strikes.  Get us through 7
his pitch count is good through 4.

47 through 4.

Just walked into a bar and they’ve got the FS1 feed, which means I’m watching.  There goes their good luck.

That was actually a big out.

Soroka probably goes 6, not 7. That was 2 innings of work.

Don’t love Soroka, but Williams has no business in a rotation, or even on this team

A thought to consider while were are happy.  What happens when Crews, Young come back? RH3 has lots of options. Lisle has some too. What if Nats Nats trade Call, Lowe Bell Rosario Chafin Irvin Williams and possibly 34 year old Finnigan for draft picks. This team could be dramatically different by trade deadline if not sooner.

Lord is also coming off serious arm troubles. Surprised he isn't arm weary already. Forgot our previous superstar to be Josiah will be back this year from tj surgery and near the end of his contract

timing for Crews is probably July at the earliest.

Most draft picks are not tradable. Just special competitive balance picks some teams get awarded

I don’t think that's right. Lord had a full season last year.

This reminds of the Cubs game from 2011 where they went up 8-0 and somehow blew the game.

Should have kept pitching Soroka until he hit a 100.  No reason to not keep him throwing with that pitch count
