And as i say that Werth and Zimmerman are back..... Just trust me to curse it lol

Just in time for Jayson Werth chia pet night next Wednesday

It's fun to be back in the mix, that's for sure. We'll see how long the young arms can hold up. And if we somehow manage to win the division we have scores to settle with both the carpet bagging Dodgers and the Cards.

I'm hoping we take full advantage.

We've somehow, despite our offensive struggles, managed to keep pace and held our own. Our starting pitching is as a whole, the best in the league in my opinion, just everywhere else lets us down lol

Clippard, Uribe and Johnson should steady the ship, and i'm sure we'll get an outfielder before the Deadliner, just not someone like Upton, Alderson is too shrewd to do it, even if its a good or bad move.

If the Nats keep struggling, and we keep saying they'll get better, but will they? Then we've got a chance. By all means, i'm sure the Cards and Dodgers would be rubbing their hands at the prospect of facing us mind!

Looks like its Papelbon, too. Nats fans know exactly what they're getting here. He's back to form. If it holds, it could make the difference. Pretty gaudy staff you got there, Nats.

Meijia banned again for PED use, that's surely his MLB career over?

Who would touch a double cheat?

David Price traded to the Blue Jays...they're putting all their chips in this year

I have a friend in the Nats organization and supposedly the trade hasn't sat too well in the clubhouse. Storen is fuming

Well, Pap is a head case, for one. He's also been pretty effective this year on a bad squad.

He's the little girl with a curl... It could work. Not surprised to hear any of that.

This is what I mean about head case. "Cinco Ocho"? Seriously?

Royals get Zobrist.

FFS.

ALL IN BABY.

Here's an excellent treatment of the Storen/Papelbon question. Paul Mirengoff is an outstanding sports commentator (and former litigator) who is a deep blue Evertonian of many, many years. He was a major factor in leading me to the Blues with his writing, in fact.

Cespedes signs!

And we don't lose Wheeler! I for one don't think that's a bad deal for a rental.
