We all have our own free time allotted to us each week, and if someone wants to keep watching the Sky Chiefs try their hardest to stay out of 4th place, that's great for them. If we do somehow make the playoffs, it will be all the sweeter for them. But it's difficult for me, personally, to stay invested every day when the cast keeps shifting. This is the only team that i know will make a move and make a charge out of the big 4 teams in this area. No matter how much **** happens, the Nats never quit and i don't expect them to lay down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan T. Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Those healthy regulars will start trending back to their career norms. We will get injured starters and contributors like Goodwin, Zimmerman, Madsen, Wieters, Eaton, and Murphy back in time for the second half run. Juan Soto will be settled in as a major league player. Just stay in the hunt and things will be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish Robles wasn’t hurt, he’d already be starting. Anyone seen a timeline for Robles? Just read he was expected back “this year” right after the injury.

Riggo#44 Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 This was from over the weekend, and still hasn't played. Want to bet he had a setback? Yes, I am a full on pessimist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just re-read a few articles from after the diagnosis and they all said “months.” Word of caution: in 2011 Zach Cozart had Tommy John’s over a month after hyperextending his elbow. Guess they didn’t realize it was needed at first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riggo#44 Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 We've lost 336 man games to the DL. That's 2 years worth of games, in the 1st quarter of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skinfan2k Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Robles and Soto will be ****ing amazing together. If we can keep harper, there is no way any OF is better than ours. this team is finally getting its groove back. Maybe too many days of rest slowed down their bats.

CRobi21 Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Man did we need a "get right" game with the bats. Thank you SD for sending out a guy with a 16+ ERA. Ball was retrieved! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRobi21 Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 4 good ABs by Soto... Swung at a couple out of the zone that last one. Could tell he was mad at himself for it. ****ing. Awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebluefood Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 [Been focusing on the Caps tonight] [Came back home from bowling, still listening to the game] Oh, yeah, that fella Soto started today - wonder how he did. [2-4, 3 RBIs, HR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warhead36 Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 First game. First AB. First homer. Stuff of legends. Man a Soto/Robles/Harper OF would be fun to watch for the next decade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade7 Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Happy Soto had solid debut, but not gonna lie, these injuries adding up dampening my enthusiasm. We need as many of our guns back as we can ASAP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
