Fire Snit and get a manager with some balls. He pulls his starters way too soon. Show them you have confidence in their abilities and that the bats will get 1 or 2 runs back. Now, as soon as they get 2 runners on base, he is warming up some piece of crap in the bullpen. Resign Donaldson. he can be the leader in the clubhouse. He won't allow shite to happen like Acuna did more than once. Time for Teheran to go.

Acuna got intentionally thrown at multiple times in this series alone and no one did a fricking thing about it

Markakis should be back at $2 millions. He needs to be a bench player tho.

Julio used to be that guy. Now he's just a replacement on the playoff roster.

If Keuchel wasn't happy with the offers he got last winter, he needs to prepare himself for some real disappointment this winter.

Scott Boras is still his agent though.

On a related note, how are the new CBA discussions going between the MLBPA and owners? I think a lot of teams are holding out making huge, long term FA signings until all that shakes out.

What is your issue with Swanson? He was one of the few position players who showed up this series, and he was having a fine season before his heel injury sidelined him.

Much as it pains me, I’m pulling for the Nats. They are playing good ball and making the Cards their bitches lol. Screw the Cards.

It is nauseating watching the Nationals go to the World Series. God the braves are chokers.

Well at least Harper ain’t on the team anymore. Him leaving makes them bearable.

As hot as their starting pitching and hitting is they would've probably taken out our Braves quickly to.To many slumping bats and not as deep a rotation.I'm pulling for them as that city hasn't hosted a World Series since the 1930's.

Sad but true.

Stephen Strasburg, Anthony Rendon (if we can't agree to a Donaldson extenson)


Donaldson might be my favorite player on the roster so I hope we can resign him as well, but holy shite. I would love to hear the calls on talk radio here if the Braves grabbed Rendon right after the Phillies grabbed Harper.

The Braves getting Rendon would be the bee's knees, but I'll accept just having him leave DC/the NL East. I'm tired of facing him 19 times a season

The Cardinals offense was pathetic vs the Nats.

Since Giant Meteor didn't win the NLCS, I am just happy the Cardinals lost.

So on Friday I went out to lunch with some guys from work (all transplants) and they were talking about how St. Louis sucks and it is a horrible sports town and it is really just a baseball town.

I said, no it isn't a baseball town, it is a Cardinals town, because if it was a baseball town the St. Louis Browns would have never moved to Baltimore.

Anyways, here is to the Astros (preferably) or even the Yankees beating the Natinals.
