    You can clearly see the Nats were ready for us and prepared, Stros were just going with the motion like we know we got this we are the better team.

    Can't take that away from us! Imagine being a Dodgers fan. Lost in 2017 and 2018 and thought 2019 was finally the year.

    Imagine scrapping together $4k to take your family to the game and then getting blown out.

    Yes, in that they can both stand out there with a glove. Springer better eat his Wheaties because he'll have to cover 3/4 of the OF.

    At this point if you are the you have to pray that hold the slipper for a few more games. Because it hard to think they can play better than this and we play worse

    I am confident that Luhnow can get someone equally valuable in return. Reddick with his declining production should be easily replaceable.

    This is so Houston, right now.

    Stros had to scratch-and-claw for the '17 title. Seven-game LCS and WS. No blowouts.

    Then, we get blownout following two years.

    Nats did beat LA and sweep STL, so that's worth mentioning.

    Stros can still win. Maybe four in a row.

    This makes me appreciate rockets more tho. Rockets fought toe to toe with a SUPER TEAM. That gives me all the respect in the world to harden and CP3. Miss that little guy a lot

    Somebody throw in a towel before it goes to 20-2. Point made, end the slaughter!

    "In the most improbable of rallies, the Nationals take an 8-2 lead with six runs off Justin Verlander and Ryan Pressly in the seventh. Kurt Suzuki had the go-ahead home run, A.J. Hinch's first intentional walk of the season backfired, and the Nationals' other run-scoring hits were 83.5 mph, 75.7 mph and 62.1 mph. Sometimes you don't have to hit the ball hard."

    You are probably right. Just need as much offense as possible at this point and Alvarez is getting hot.

    Just looked at play again...definitely not a sure out at 1st. Regardless, Pressly didn't get it done...neither did James while we're at it. Actually would have been better to have left JV in as fatigued as he was. Pressly hadn't been jack since the leg injury.
