This is the team that Bob Shorted from Washington in 1971. Shirley Povich said that Short had moved the Expansion Senators to "some tank town with no more distinction than being between Dallas and Fort Worth". Having flown there to change planes to visit the kids at Ft Hood, I agree with Povich.

How is DeGrom still throwing a 100 at 38 with all those big injuries?

This FS1 broadcast is really terrible.  I don't know who the announcers are but they have voices best suited for newspapers...

Nats have to get someone to replace Kolko but that might cost money :bang:

Nunez just has no pop.   Squares up a 98mph fastball and the ball goes 350
