Well we got the curly W today boys!

After dropping two to the freakin' Marlins ... this team is on my backburner for now. I don't want to deal with another roller coaster.

The Bullpen is squarely on the Lerner's but of course they won’t be fired bc they’re the owners. The Lerner’s aren’t willing to pay for better middle relievers so, the team continues to blow leads in games they should win which has been a theme since 2012 when the team finally got good. And it’s slowly deteriorating even further bc they won’t  keep the good middle relievers they develop like Tyler Clippard for example.

The same Tyler Clippard who only managed to stick for entire season once since he left the Nationals, and that was last season with the Blue Jays? The same Clippard who has played for seven teams in the past four years after leaving Washington? The same Clippard who has only once had a better ERA/FIP than he had in Washington (2.68/3.46), and that was in a short 11 game span with the White Sox (1.80/2.26)? The guy who had six seasons with a WAR of +1.0 ... but  only one of those has occurred since he left DC?

That guy?

Well he was good in DC, not sure what happened to him after. What the heck did that short stop do for us, Escobar or whatever?

Young Nats and the bullpen came through! Boom! Boom! Boom! 💣 

Soto, Robles and Kieboom!

3 players under 22 hit 3 homers in a game, first time in history.

Then Matt Adams hits the game winner! Adams continually outplays/outhits Zimmerman. I understand why Zimmerman is still here, but perhaps next year we need to move on w/ Matt Adam being our starting 1st baseman.
