Highlighting the difference in HR rates between Ober and Mikolas.

LGJr remains out. Lile slides into the #2 spot.

Caratini was a guy I thought who could  have helped at C if the Nats were interested in fielding a competitive lineup.

going to the game tonight. Wouldn't be able to post the lineup easily. As long as the lineups are posted, I figured I'd take care of it.

Wood’s been striking out an awful lot lately. Concerning. Maybe it’s time to change the lineup.

We needed to score more there. Too many blown opportunities lately. Clutch hitting isn’t as good as it was at the start of the season.

turning into the 3-2 team I thought they'd be coming out of ST, not the 10-8 team we saw 1st 20-25 games of the year

How the hell do you give up a HR on a 0-2 pitch with 2 outs in the top of the 5th in what might be your best game of the season.

I just had cataract surgery and I could see the last 2 calls were strikes. Can’t the batter and catcher get a signal from the dugout when to challenge.
