And now Newcomb can't throw a strike.

 

[Chewbaccer]

2-0 now. 2nd and 3rd with one out.

Is it so much to ask to not fall behind every game?

 

[Chewbaccer]

Somehow, it's only 2-0 game still. Piss poor defense too.

And Newcomb needed about 40 pitches to get through the first inning.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Newcomb didn't get that pitch.

 

[Chewbaccer]

And Harper with a 3 run bomb.

Some things never change.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Second and third with no out and we can't score. Show some God damn pride, boys.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Already down 3-0 before we get a chance to bat.

Hard to win when you have to come from behind every night. Getting to be a little ridiculous. Nut the fuck up, pitchers.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Seriously, how do you walk the God damn leadoff man to start the game?

Then how do you get Harper to ground out, but then give up a no doubter to a 45 year old Ryan Zimmerman?

 

[Chewbaccer]

Thankfully Anibal Sanchez saved the bullpen last night. Looks like they're gonna be needed in full force tonight.

Right on que, another walk.

Throw God damn strikes.

I'm over this entire rotation.

 

[Chewbaccer]

It's pretty bad when you can't wait to start a road trip so at least you won't be playing catchup before your offense even gets a chance.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Damn. 4 runs for us so far in the first.

3 run bomb, Preston Tucker.

Imagine if we didn't give up runs every first inning?

Julio has to be the all time leader in HRs given up to opposing pitchers.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Offense gets the lead, and then Teheran gives up a homer to the fucking pitcher.

Tied up.

Hopefully this Nats pitcher sucks just as much as Julio.

Fly ball pitchers and this ball park don't mix, especially when you don't get many strikeouts. His value is diminished, but I'd be open to trading Teheran. He was rock solid on the road last year, but horrible at home. So far this year, he still sucks at home, and it has yet to be determined on the road.

 

[Chewbaccer]

We trade for all these pitching prospects, only one of them up with the big club is Newcomb, and he still has to learn how to command his pitches, and our top ranked pitching prospects were guys we drafted(Soroka and Allard).

Seems to me we could have been in the same boat if the Shelby Miller trade was the only one we made.

Albies and Acuna were our guys we didn't trade for either.

 

[Chewbaccer]

OZZIE!!

This game has 15-3 written all over it.

Julio has to be the all time leader in HRs given up to opposing pitchers.

Im sorry I know he hit the HR that won us a WS but Justice is an ass. I 'll never forgive him for ripping our fans.

 

[Mistaken4193]

FREDDIE!!

 

[Chewbaccer]

FREDDIE!!!

3 run bomb.

Freeman has got to have the best RBI to at bat ratio with all of his walks.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Im sorry I know he hit the HR that won us a WS but Justice is an ass. I 'll never forgive him for ripping our fans.

Roids were clouding his mind.

He sounds like he hasn't watched baseball since he retired too.

"I hear the Nats might contend for the division this year"

Astute analysis there, Dave.

 

[Mistaken4193]

FREDDIE!!

Harper Owns Teheran...OWNS
