Wow what the hell happened to Marcell Ozuna's arm? He used to have a cannon but that was such a weak noodle arm throw to the plate, after botching the catch on the slide where the ball was literally in his glove.

Why is Soto acting like a 4 year old at the plate...staring down pitcher after a walk lol

 

That's just what he does, pretty much all the time. It seems to work for him so I'm not going to be the one to tell him to stop.

So the franchise has toiled since 1969 and is now on the verge of their first WS appearance. Surely, this is not just a coincidence that the 'golden boy' is no longer a member of the organization, and they are finally about to take that big step....

Yeah but maybe if he stays with the Nats, he gets $280 M. Is he really going to notice the difference in his bank account between 280 and 330 ?! I am sure when he is old and retired and (if that is the case) never won that WS championship, all the money in the world won't fill that hole in his heart. If that hole does not exist, then he is not a true competitor in the first place, and even more so explains the Nats doing better once his cancer left the clubhouse. I hereby suggest that Papelbon got totally railroaded - that b**ch deserved to have his neck wrung.

I'm not arguing with you, I'm just making a joke out of Harper's gaffe in regards to your comment.

HAHAHA!! I didn't even realize the damn fool had accidentally said he wanted to bring the trophy back to DC!! (actually now that I think of it, I vaguely remember that hitting the news). Anyway, it's not that I necessarily dislike the guy, but I do wonder if his 'golden boy' status was actually a detriment to the Nats. Vlad Jr should take note and be humble! Anyway, I think he has already been surpassed by Bo (and possibly Biggio). Time will tell...

Wow, the Nats have a real shot at winning a title with their rotation. They’ll be rested too since the ALCS will likely go down to the wire, and this series doesn’t look like it will last much longer.

This would be a lot more fun if this was somewhat close. Even Rodney can't screw this up.

 

I agree that it would be better if the games were closer, but I really enjoyed watching Strasburg's dominance, the Nats were just having an excellent game all-around except for the one miscue from Soto.

I don't remember when the article was written, but I remember Fangraphs finding that teams that sweep tend to lose in the next round against less rested teams (or something of that nature).
