Butera is still awful at bullpen management.

No reason for Ribalta to not start another inning

Yup, Nats won despite his horrible bullpen management

Defense looked pretty pretty good tonight.

Great win

Back to 1 under.

Need to get the sweep tomorrow, and the schedule really opens up

Poulin was the last arm that hadn't pitched yesterday. Can question not going for 2 innings with Ribalta, or not going 2 with Varland, but there wasn't another option other than Kent.

The bullpen looks OK...even fixed. But with only two competent starters...

Foster Griffin and who?

Ali the Baseball Cat · « **Reply #92 on:** May 13, 2026, 10:16:05 pm »

That was bizarre but OK

JCA-CrystalCity · « **Reply #93 on:** May 13, 2026, 10:17:43 pm »

As the TV team said constantly, 1st comeback from 5 down in 60 games

Man this would have been a fun series to attend. I hope the Nationals have a weekend series at Cincinnati in the near future that I might be able to attend as a visiting fan.
