Quote from Jeremy Hill on June 24, 2024, 6:58 am3 more lefties. If we can't figure it out against Corbin we've got real problems. The Nats look like a team that was designed to sell with the likes of Winker, Senzel, Gallo and Rosario playing on bounce back type deals. They've been one of the bigger surprises of the season. I still like they should sell or move on from those guys to make room for some of their prospects like Wood. With them just a half game back in the wild card race it could be hard for them to pull the trigger. Hopefully we can take the series and make the decision a little easier.

Wash is one that has WC aspirations....need minimum of 2 out of 3 here.
Would LOVE to see Darvish go 7 and get the win tomorrow

Nothing against him,just don't like the optics if he were to come in and beat Darivsh.

Quote from Randy Manese on June 24, 2024, 3:19 pmEven if Tatis does not go on the IL, Bryce Johnson deserves a chance. Switch hitter is close to .900 in OPS with a 15.1% BB rate supporting his .430 OBP; his K rate is under 20%. Sure he hits in the PCL but he's also 18 of 20 in SB and a very good defensive OF. For the latter reason, Id pick him over Ornelas but if Tatis does go on the IL, Id bring them both up. Peralta is toast. Has had many opportunities to shine and failed plus is a miserable OF.
At this point, Pauley is not ready - needs the rest of the year to regain his swing mechanics/confidence after being put on the roster way too early this year. Despite his struggles in El Paso this year, still has the most advanced swing from the left side of any of our prospects, including Salas and Sanabria. Expect Pauley to finish strong and start showing his hitting chops next year.

Quote from Jeremy Hill on June 24, 2024, 3:38 pmTatis is headed to the IL. Azocar and Brito are being sent down. Johnson, Rosario and Mazur will take their spots. Mazur will start tomorrow. Darvish is dealing with elbow inflammation.

Quote from Jeremy Hill on June 24, 2024, 4:16 pmBrito is going to be stretched out to be a starter.

Quote from Jeremy Hill on June 24, 2024, 9:47 pmWell that's the second game in a row I've been to that ended with a walk-off. I was on the trolley when it happened this time though lol. The trolley riders have decided that our lack of faith drove them to victory. What a rally.
