Please get this fucking loser off my squad. Least favorite player on the team and it’s not close. Being a cornball on the mound down 9 runs. Smiling grounding into double plays. Smiling making errors. Go smile and laugh with zero production in Rochester
Idc man yeah we “won the trade” and it was the right move to trade him and all that but he should’ve been a National his entire career. This isn’t a player you should ever let go of and he might be on his 4th team at age 26 this offseason
Look, Stephen Strasburg was NOT an altruistic guy. Sorry. No.
To explain:
I don't know whether this Twitter user is a he/she/xim/xer whatever. Anonymous Twitter opinion spouters are so so lame.
Anyhow, there's a MASSIVE difference between "human" empathy and "sports fan"
“This is Dylan Crews. He’s one of the best prospects baseball has seen in a while and is touted as a 5 tool player that has the ceiling of Mike Trout. His flaw is that he plays for the organization stuck in 1980 and they’ll probably find a way to somehow ruin him”
Cannot stress enough how much the Nats need to upgrade at play-by-play when Bob retires. Another great moment utterly ruined by a completely cringeworthy call and far from the first from Kolko this year
James Wood update:
•.283/.369/.449
•vs lefties: .281/.339/.404 (remember when Davey said he had to hit them better lol)
•.819 OPS
•132 wRC+, 134 OPS+
•2 4-hit games in 37 games
Again, all before starting to blast pull-side homers. So special
“The 1-0 to Wood and HE BLASTS IT!!!!! SEEEEEEEE YOUUUUUUU LATERRRRRRRR!!!!! IN HIS MLB DEBUT, JAMES WOOD WINS IT WITH A WALK-OFF HOMER IN THE 12TH!!!!”
James Wood is up to a 124 wRC+, 128 OPS+, and is slashing a very respectable .270/.364/.426. This is also without really lifting and pulling the ball with authority yet, which will come as he makes adjustments.
The league is on NOTICE

Bobby Miller had a rare rough start last night, only lasting 1.2 innings giving up 5 earned runs and raising his ERA on the season to 5.87
If that was a Nationals starter, their ERA would’ve gone down
I saw this guy pitch once in AAA. Fell in love with him immediately. I don’t know what it is, but he’s such a good player and the way that he plays the game is so interesting to me. I am now going to turn my @ to HurstonWaldrepSZN Now that he’s in the majors
SNY just dropped that Nats became the first team in baseball to use 3 relievers 3 straight days in 1 series and the last team to do it was the Nats again last year LMFAOOO Davey just has zero regard for these guys arms
Mitchell Parker came out of nowhere and became the next Kershaw
Abrams told Darnell Coles to go fuck himself and is pulling fly balls again
BBL Keibert won’t stop hitting
Braves empire has fallen
Meneses contributed absolutely nothing
Nats Nation we are BACK
4 straight tweets crying and wetting your pants about rain delay including multiple mentions of one from 7 years ago LMAO I see where the Braves fanbase get their victim complex from. I’d be upset too if my team’s window was closing with another 4 game series loss to the Nats
Good news: They are removing the tarp.
Better news: They don’t need to remove any water off the tarp.
Things have really gotten better around here since July 7, 2017
The Washington Nationals have acquired...
• C - Keibert Ruiz
• RHP - Josiah Gray
• RHP - Gerardo Carrillo
• OF - Donovan Casey
...from the Los Angeles Dodgers in exchange for RHP Max Scherzer and SS Trea Turner.

Small sample but I mean how can you not be excited with him suddenly flashing this kind of power out of nowhere. A year ago you would’ve been insane if you projected Abrams to have a 30+ HR season in his career and we might be getting it in the age 23 season
CJ Abrams offensive ranks so far:
SLG: 7th
OPS: 11th
wRC+: 17th
HardHit%: 21st
Also already has 5 HR on the season when it took him til late April last year to hit his first
Know what else he ranks high in? 16th in Pull%
PULL. THE. BASEBALL.
James Wood (
@Nationals
) flashing some serious opposite-field pop!
MLB's No. 5 prospect leaves the yard for the second consecutive game for the Triple-A
@RocRedWings
.
The Nats in 2 games since announcing the entire coaching staff would return next year:
-Outscored 17-4
-0-10 with RISP
-Let “Weston Wilson” hit for the cycle
-Now have 1 starting pitcher with an ERA under 4 after Parker gave up 8 runs
-3 errors
So deserving of jobs!!
Players that need to be off the team by the All Star Break:
-Ildemaro Vargas
-Joey Meneses
-Nick Senzel
-Eddie Rosario
-Lane Thomas
-Jacob Young
-Robert Garcia
-Joey Gallo
-Patrick Corbin (won’t happen but I can dream)
Garcia first multi HR game for the team last night? Benched.
Wood on base 3 times with his first career multi hit game and RBI? Moved down to 5th.
Winker 104 wRC+ against lefties? Benched.
Meneses 41 wRC+ against lefties? Moves up to 4th.
Vargas ass? Starts 5th game in a row.
Nats 2019 fluke narrative is so annoying lol shut the fuck up that was a top 5 team in baseball with the best rotation and scariest 3/4 hitter combo to face between Rendon and Soto
Dodgers broadcast just said Nats playing the Dodgers is their playoffs because they’re a team with no expectations that has to prove they can play at the major league level im crying
Fixing the Nats:
-Call up: James Wood, Juan Yepez, Stone Garrett
-DFA/Option: Eddie Rosario, Joey Meneses, Jacob Young
Lineup:
SS Abrams
CF Wood
LF Winker
DH Garrett
2B Garcia
RF Gallo
1B Yepez
C Adams/Ruiz
3B “LilSenzii”🤢
The Washington Nationals just had 2 games in a 4 day span where they combined for 14 hits and scored a grand total of 0 runs.
They went 1-18 with RISP
Today alone they failed to score with: -Runners on the corners, no outs
-Runners at second and third, no outs
FIRE. COLES.
NATS FANS are booing their own squad in game 4 of the season the casuals are finally starting to get fed up (4 years too late but still) I’m smiling this is incredible
Davey on Keibert in his postgame presser: “Hey I love the home run but I loved the base hit to left center even more because it tells me he’s staying behind the ball” LMFAOOOOO I can’t take it anymore man
Jesse Winker singled to open the fifth and then was picked off by Max Fried. Two baserunning errors so far have taken the Nationals out of scoring chances.
You are my sunshine
My only sunshine
You make me happy
When skies are gray
You'll never know, dear
How much I love you
Please don't take
My sunshine away
Nationals - Laughingstock of baseball
Commanders - Laughingstock of football
Wizards- Laughingstock of basketball
Capitals - Geriatrics that will soon be the laughingstock of hockey
There’s no worse city to be a sports fan in than Washington D.C.
Jesse Winker getting into it with a Padres fan who was losing his mind at the Nats for “throwing at Profar” (with the bases loaded and the winning run on second)
