eye popping stuff

I was surprised they even brought him up.  Only 31 innings at Rochester and both ERA and RA9 over 5, didn't seem special.  Was he coming back from yet another injury?

Vivas may finally have run out of rope.

I missed that. What happened?

THE RACING PRECEDENTS: Comparative dates on which the Nationals notched their 66th win of the season, each season:

2012 - 6th August (109th match of season
2017 - 7th August (110th match)
2016 - 7th August (111th match)
2014 - 14th August (119th match)
2019 - 16th August (121st match)
2005 - 24th August (126th match)
2013 - 27th August (131st match)
2018 - 27th August (132nd match)
2015 - 30th August (129th match)
2026 - 31st August (140th match)
2011 - 9th September (142nd match)
2024 - 13th September (147th match)
2007 - 15th September (148th match)
2023 - 17th September (150th match)
2006 - 19th September (151st match)
2010 - 24th September (154th match)
2025 - 27th September (161st match)
---
2022- finished 55-107 (.340)
2009 - finished 59-103 (.364)
2008 - finished 59-102 (.366)
2021 - finished 65-97 (.401)
2020 - finished 26-34 (.433)

66 was the last win of 2025. As PB69 and Franny note, Team 2026 has tied last year's win total with a month left in the season (OK, 27 days, but . . .).

Expos 2004 won 67.

hit a pop in the infield down the 3B line. Stayed in the box. The ball drifted fair but was  caught. Still, that drops, he is thrown out by 90 feet.
