I was going to bet on the Nats today figuring they would be big underdogs. But only +105. What does Vegas know that we don’t?

Sure but the Cards are 6-5. And their starter has a 2.53 ERA. Which is “slightly” better than our starter. Maybe it’s the Nats rabid fanbase.

Yeah that’s it.

This should be Milolas's last start, unless a miracle happens.

Well, he knows the hitters, but they know him. Let's see how he executs.

At least Survivor is on tonight after this gets out of hand.

If Alvarez pitches well again, this should be Mikolis' last start

My god this guy sucks

Mikolas is tats on a bull. Absolutely worthless. Just release him between innings. Makes Jeremy Guthrie look good.

imref · « **Reply #19 on:** April 08, 2026, 04:37:59 pm »

i think mikolas has lowered his era with only 2 ER in 2 IP

welch · « **Reply #20 on:** April 08, 2026, 04:50:17 pm »

This has to be the end of Mikolas. 5 Hits, 3 walks, 2 earned runs in 1/3 innings

JCA-CrystalCity · « **Reply #21 on:** April 08, 2026, 04:50:27 pm »

He is trying to tire out the Cards by making them run the bases. It's strategic. After that, they won't be able to run down the Nats balls in play

2ER in 3IP. This is his best start this season (so far!)

I'm thinking somewhere a Nats fan has a rally cap going
