  1. It was never a case of Suarez OR a big bat. We needed both. BresLOW didn’t half the job. At this point Gray is exceeding my expectations but it’s only June. As with Rafaela I’ll wait until the end of the year in September to make a final assessment.
  2. The building blocks were there over the winter for this team to stand a decent chance not to be one of them. Unfortunately Henry was too cheap and BresLOW too dumb to fortify the offense that EVERYONE knew needed help. Now we are a last place team with great SPing and defense. Unacceptable.
  3. We should be sellers at the deadline. Not really interested in a one and out in the unlikely event we do make the playoffs.
  4. 12 was a guess. That’s why I phrased it the way I did. We are still way underwater and in last place
  5. It is bogus but I think they believe it’s like arguing balls and strikes
  6. It is over in terms of the playoffs. Right now the chances of making the playoffs are just 18% according to Fangraphs. So yeah-do trades that put us in a better position to be relevant in a couple of years
  7. Yeah We’re doing just great Joe. Last place and what—12 games under .500? I don’t know what team you’re watching.
  8. Of course! I certainly want him to continue to do what he has done so far this year. If he can do that he’ll be a major contributor once the team becomes relevant again. I’d love to be wrong about him. He’s a small man and I’m just not sure he can make it through an entire season being consistently good. He could tire out like last year.
  9. The season isn’t over. Last year he faded at the end of the year. I’ll admit he’s much better this year but I want to see his end of the season stats
  10. If we get a top 5-6 pick there’s an excellent chance that pick could contribute
  11. But Breslow is responsible for this last place team. He’s the guy that assembled them. He got IKF, Gaspar, Durbin (who is actually doing better but still has crappy overall stats) instead of signing talented players that would have put us in contention.
  12. First BresLOW has to go and be replaced by someone competent. But yes-the higher the pick the better the chance of drafting talent.
  13. We all know this season is over-no playoffs. Again. The only rational approach is to plan for a better future by improving our draft position. Wins now are pretty irrelevant.
  14. Suarez isn’t sharp. Nats are right back in it! Just lose baby!
  15. Sure. But then you’ll miss out on my wisdom. Probably tap on my username and find it somewhere in there. Or you could just succumb to my irrefutable logic.
  16. I’m not joking. Since this season is already over it’s time to plan for a more successful future by improving our draft position
  17. Exactly. We aren’t making the playoffs. But leading by five runs isn’t the right way to plan for the future. They should be tanking.
