Honestly, until/unless they're ahead of the Phillies by a couple of games, I'm going to be a "boxscore" fan. As in, unless I get free tickets, my interaction/interest in the team will be: check box score to see if they won, and ignore them otherwise. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slateman Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 Martinez should pull a Riggleman and demand a new contract from Rizzo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeezy Fanatic Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 I'd rather have this years team, that started awful and is now playing good ball, than last years team that was mediocre all year. If you can go another month play .600 ball, then I think you have to buy at the deadline. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, I think the Nats would be better served being neither a buyer nor a seller (with the possible exception of selling Doolittle, and I love the guy).

It'll be close. I think you have to sell what you can get for Kendrick and/or Dozier. Maybe Sanchez. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they're in the hunt, selling those guys would be a mistake. That said, coming out of the All Star Break is going to be a rough run (3 @ Philly, 2 @ Baltimore, 4 @ Atlanta, 4 vs Colorado, 3 vs LA Dodgers, and 3 vs Atlanta). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My concern is that while I think they could play themselves into the hunt, I'm not sure they have what it takes to win it all, even with some pickups. They've done a lot to hollow out the farm system over the past few years, so pushing all in yet again may be taking on more long term damage for only limited gains. Of course, if that's the case, selling on Kendrick, Dozier, and Doolittle might be the play then. We'll see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtle28 Posted June 29, 2019 Author Share Posted June 29, 2019 I definitely don’t think they should be sellers at the trade deadline. Possibly buyers but it would have to be a good 4th or 5th starting pitcher or a good set up man for Doolittle. It’s a shame Madson got over the hill and was done in 2018. I wish we still had him in his 2017 form as Doolittle’s set up man. We need a guy like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
