Good for Mikolas. Will make me a bit sad when we have to DFA him later.

Other than his pitching he's great!

Thank you to friends old and new who participated by viewing or posting comments.

With the :w: posted, we honor the memory of our friend Old Chelsea with the traditional post that tracks the Nats wins to date, in Anglophile style.

THE RACING PRECEDENTS - Comparative dates on which the Nationals notched their 56th win, each season

2016 - 16th July (92nd match)
2017 - 17th July (92nd match)
2012 - 23rd July (95th match of season)
2014 - 25th July (100th match)
2019 - 28th July (105th match)
2005 - 31st July (105th match)
2018 - 4th August (110th match)
2026 - 5th August (116th match)
2015 - 6th August (107th match)
2011 - 9th August (115th match)
2013 - 10th August (116th match)
2023 - 18th August (123rd match)
2024 - 18th August (125th match)
2007 - 20th August (125th match)
2010 - 29th August (131st match)
2006 - 31st August (133rd match)
2025 - 3rd September (139th match)
2021 - 4th September (135th match)
2008 - 7th September (144th match)
2009 - 1st October (159th match)
---
2022- finished 55-107 (.340)
2020 - finished 26-34 (.433)

Team 2021 56th win came after a 2-11 stretch as the wheels fell off after the salary dump at the deadline.

This win for Team 2026 broke a 7 game losing streak that dropped the playoff odds from 10% down to 2%. Started at the end of the homestand during which the Nats traded Curtis Mead and continued through the further sell-down of Luis Garcia Jr and Foster Griffin before the trade deadline. This game also marked the MLB debut of Andrew Pinckney as well as the first Nats appearance of a couple of relievers we acquired in trade (Dion, Cruz).

I wasn’t sure at the start of the season but she’s getting there. Same thing that happened with Alexa Shaw/Landestoy when she was hired by the Caps.

I didn’t know she worked for the cardinals but then again we had a dude that worked the booth for 20 years who couldn’t keep his cardinals bias in check. I thought she had probably worked for the blue jays because the other day she slipped up and called the Nationals the blue jays  :?
