Shelby Miller loses a no hitter with two outs in the ninth finishing with a two hit shutout. The Braves sweep the Marlins in Miami for the second time this season.
I had given up on the game after the Braves blew the short lived lead. Was really surprised when I got the notification.Great comeback win over the Giants.
Split with the defending champs.
Jace Peterson bases loaded specialist!
That's putting it mildly.So the ump allows Cole to throw at us but tosses Wood for bitching about the strike zone between innings?
Umpires need to get over themselves.
Our bullpen sucks anyway so might as well hit somebody.
That's putting it mildly.
I don't expect the Pen to hold many leads. Got rid of the three best pen guys from last year.The pen continues with their less than stellar play. Go into the 8th leading 3-1. Lose in 11 5-3.
Grilli hasn't been bad when they were able to give him a save opportunity. Johnson has been a can of gasoline in the 8th though.I don't expect the Pen to hold many leads. Got rid of the three best pen guys from last year.

I agree. They are definitely over achieving so far. To think about the production from Peterson, Maybin and Perzynski compared to those positions last year.Nice sweep of the Mets this weekend. .500 is really more than I expected from this team.
I don't know about 70-91. That would mean they would finish 35-56 for the season. I think they can do better than that.I agree. They are definitely over achieving so far. To think about the production from Peterson, Maybin and Perzynski compared to those positions last year.
I would assume the Nats will go on a huge win streak at some point but not a bad first half. Still think they go 70-91.
I hope you are right. Maybe 81-81??I don't know about 70-91. That would mean they would finish 35-56 for the season. I think they can do better than that.
Totally. With the way the Mets & Nats have greatly under achieved that may get us 2nd in division.I'd take that this year.
Totally. Great pick up.Juan Uribe is definitely paying dividends.
Comparing rosters, not a all surprising.Nats have won 7 in a row while Braves have lost 5 in a row. Figured this would happen. Went from 2 out to 6.5 out in a week.
Yeah I figure this will happen a few times this summer.Comparing rosters, not a all surprising.
