_______________________________________ ______________

Kendrick yielded three runs on seven hits over six innings in his last start, on Monday
at St. Louis. He walked one and struck out one, with 58 of his 89 pitches going for
strikes. The right-hander yielded just four hits, including two infield singles, through
the first five innings. He ran into trouble in the sixth and surrendered an RBI single to
Albert Pujols and a two-run homer to Ryan Ludwick.

On Monday, Redding pitched in his first game since Sept. 5 and gave up four runs in
four innings against the Mets. He didn't figure in the decision as the Nationals rallied
to win the game, 12-4. Redding must do a better job keeping the ball down. He has
walked 36 batters in 72 1/3 innings.

I really hope we win this one, it would give tomorrow's game some extra meaning because it would make it for our 70th win!

man Redding is so ****ing awful... He is just behind Joel in terms of suckiness. I don't know what happened but Tim was great when he first came up. As Sutton said, he was a "power pitcher". Not any more, he walks too many batters and gives up too many HRs.

I have no idea why Nook is starting. He hasn't done anything in weeks. He strikes out way too much

look likes it goin be one of those nights for our hitters

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #5:** September 22, 2007, 07:24:13 PM »

wow.. Again our hitters look dazed and confused. They have faced this bum twice and have done quite well against him. Obviously they don't remember or failed to read any scouting reports on him before the game.

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #6:** September 22, 2007, 07:27:29 PM »

what an idiot.. We sure do care a lot about these games

and another 1 pitch out. this is so sad. 10 pitches = 4 outs

metssuck · « **Reply #7:** September 22, 2007, 07:32:16 PM »

pitchers always field our comebackers.

Maybe Wily Mo is still hurting from that HBP

Worthless Schneider chasing balls.. Flores should every game for the rest of the season

metssuck · « **Reply #13:** September 22, 2007, 07:43:57 PM »

we jsut can't do anything right or catch any breaks tonite. we really are bad news

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #14:** September 22, 2007, 07:44:19 PM »

jeez, our defense is atrocious

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #15:** September 22, 2007, 07:49:04 PM »

now that's how you pitch to Howard. Nothing but sliders/curve balls. Look how much of an idiot he looked like in that AB.

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #16:** September 22, 2007, 07:50:59 PM »

and that's how NOT to pitch to Aaron Rowand.. Why are we throwing him breaking balls? That's all he can hit

metssuck · « **Reply #17:** September 22, 2007, 07:54:11 PM »

man, wheer do tha nats go to get their chains?!?!/! I might have to email about that??

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #18:** September 22, 2007, 08:03:42 PM »

Man wtf is Nook's problem?? He was swinging the bat so well in July and now he can't get around on fastballs. His swing is way too long.

The Chief · « **Reply #19:** September 22, 2007, 08:05:19 PM »

Redding isn't doing so bad, but our offense is stone-cold dead at the moment

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #20:** September 22, 2007, 08:06:26 PM »

great play, Felipe.. Wish he would get to balls like that more often, especially up the middle

Yeah I like the way Tim is throwing it. He is throwing his fastball for strikes and he is keeping his breaking stuff low in the zone. If only we could figure out Kyle Kendrick.

No. Some guys will be traded in the offseason. Not that Fick has any trade value but we'll see some guys shipped off shortly.

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #23:** September 22, 2007, 08:11:34 PM »

Zim 0/2 with 2 Ks.. what the hell

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #24:** September 22, 2007, 08:13:13 PM »

unbelievable.. Kendrick is absolutely owning. He's throwing the same damn pitch every time and we still can't hit it.
