Mlb 2013

The Nationals are playing absolutely lights out, having just won their 7th in a row and 24 of their last 33. Their bats are absolutely on fire with home runs flying out on a very regular basis. They're now 4.5 games behind the Reds for the last NL Wild Card berth. They're may be running out of time, but DC hasn't yet given up hope. Hell, they're even selling playoff tickets already.

LOL everyone in the hunt is selling playoff tickets.

I am rooting for the Nats on this one I can't stand the way the Reds play.

Finn, I hope your Nats make the playoffs. The fat lady hasn't sung yet. And the Reds seem to be showing signs of faltering a bit.

The Dodgers, limping toward the playoffs.
It was fun while it lasted.

Yeah, that was pretty painful. At least they got it out of their system, and tomorrow is another day. The injuries have me worried though. As one commenter on MLB Dodgers said, maybe Kemp is healthy enough to come back, and if playing well, will give yet another lift.

But the pitching has got to get back to being dominant again. And we have Ex-SD Padre Volquez pitching tomorrow...ugh, I suspect this will be his last start.
 
I don't see any NL contending teams playing their best ball. Cards offense is really struggling. Pitching has been good, defense good but they can't seem to put a few hits together to score any runs.
 
The Cards are in Denver opening a 3 or 4 game series (don't remember which it is), so the drama of that division race comes out this way. If the Cards bring and play their "A" game, they should handle it well, but, the Rockies will be looking to play the spoiler role, and they are far from pushovers. The NL Central division race is really exciting, along with the wild card race in the league is also a powder keg. Go Nats!
 
Dodger D-mise.
If the the Dodgers had the less than 10 game lead I do not believe they could make the playoffs the state they are in today.
A collapse has ensued:sigh:.

Too much dicking around, adding on questionable "bargain" players (Volquez, Young, Wilson is fine though) and then going through these rotations. While the injuries are real and have necessitated a lot of this, we should be using our own guys from the farm system and grooming them up for a few games (yes, some of them haven't worked out well either).

I'm just not a big fan of how DM is managing this club, and how the momentum, confidence, and chemistry of the club has been squandered. Players need consistency, and not a lot of juggling, not a lot of "oh, let's look at the roster and lineup to see where I hit today, and how I have to continue to make adjustments".

We really don't need to overthink this, just think it through. lost 7 of last 10!
 
My O's have stumbled this year in spots where they shined last year. However no one in the Wild Card chase has run off and hid so we still have a chance. I don't think it is an exaggeration to say that these next two series; 3 @ Boston and 4@ Tampa Bay will decide their chances for the post season. We need to do better than 4-3 in this next 7 or we will probably be passed by others or run out of time to make up the remaining ground.
 
Excellent ballgame last night between the Cards and Rockies. Todd Helton struck out in the bottom of the 9th with the sacks packed. Cards win 4-3 to take a 2 game lead in the NL Central.

Pirates and Reds still have 6 games against each other which will be huge games. Hopefully ESPN will show a few of these games.

Pirates are never on ESPN So... probably not.
 
Dodger D-Lite! at the expense of the deadly Diamondbacks!
Finally a chance for scheduled rests, throw-away lineups, second string players, a return to health and to get ready for the playoffs.
The Dodgers will have their hands full with the scrapers and possible wild card teams.
Whomever prevails will be a matter of desire, to say the least.
 
I was really surprised to wake up this morning and see the Reds beat the Pirates to tie them in the division. Cards barely eek out a win over the Brewers to remain 2 games up.
 
Dusty Baker has to be the most dirtiest, cheapest, scumbag manager of all time.

Stop hitting our star player you piece of garbage and it's frustrating that we can't retaliate..
