  1. If only there were a key game coming up, to divert our collective attention from the locker room clown show. Not that the displays we've seen on the field the last two nights haven't been clown shows in themselves.

    I have no idea what we're going to get from Greinke, but I'm sure not expecting him to win 2-1 with seven strong innings. In fact, my expectations are so low that I'm thinking there's a fair chance he pitches well. We really, really, really need to jump out to a 4-0 lead and build from there, ideally with key contributions from Correa and Reddick (or whoever else is in RF). Time to quit jacking around.  

  2. The only thing that gives me any real hope is knowing guys like Springer, Reddick and Correa can turn on with one random AB and do something historic. That’s evidently just how they roll.

    Do I expect it? Not really. But there’s a chance it still could happen. Of course, that might not even matter unless we start playing better overall against a team that’s not just underrated but also leading a charmed life.

    I don’t know what you can do.  Shitty situational hitting has killed us, but we had the best offense in baseball.

    Maybe our guys should stop worrying about Instagram and reading their own press clippings and nut up.

    Euphoria doesn’t appear to be our amigo. Break scoring records against patsies and then imnediately screw up our swings for a week. Win an epic series in a walk-off (which could have been a crushing loss) and then immediately go comatose in our own park.

    Perchance we party too hard. Then again, maybe it’s just beisbol. But whatever it is, it’s ugly.

    Let's all hope Alex Bregman remembers how to hit a baseball.

    Killing that trade value with every whiff. Seriously, he's one of the last guys in baseball I'd have expected to seize up in the crunch. Hopefully just a passing thing, but it really needs to end tonight.

    Does anyone ever hit the ball the opposite way anymore? I wish they’d stop trying to pull every ball into the seats.

    The guy with three RBIs for the Nats is only 20, so he evidently doesn’t yet know to quit going oppo. 

    Uncle Mike wasn’t rewarded on his liner to left, but i liked the attempt.

  6. We can be bummed that wasn’t a HR. Or we can be happy Eaton didn’t make a great catch on it. I’ll go with the latter. 

    If I’m the Nats, I don’t give Yuli much to hack at. But I hope they do.

    Is Smoltz in there? Set snares. 

    There are autograph hounds out by wherr they come in. Homeless guy tried to sneak in to use porta potties

    Some collateral damage is acceptable in the fight for freedom from Smoltz.
