Dan T. Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Eh, I’m okay with pulling Corbin. Thinking longer range. Sit him after a relatively easy start instead of stretching him for nothing more than personal glory.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not trying to be condescending, some people haven't heard of it.  He was at 93 pitches. I would have liked to see if he could have gotten three quick outs and pulled it off. If he had walked someone or given up a hit, I'd have had no problem with him being pulled at that point. But to not even let the attempt happen, especially the way he was cruising, bothered me.

skinswillwin06 Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 (edited) Davey gets crucified for putting Doolittle in for 3 run save situations and now people want him to chase CG shutouts. The guy can't do anything right ever I guess Edited August 22, 2019 by skinswillwin06 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan T. Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 So which are you watching live tonight?  Max's return against the Pirates or the Skins' third preseason game, the one where starters play most? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've watched a little preseason just to see how Haskins looked but have zero interest otherwise. I'll keep an eye on twitter and maybe flip over to the Skins to see a Haskins possession, but that's about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhead36 Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 We'll probably need some runs today. Scherz will be on a pitch count and will need to shake off some rust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprised this isn't a 1pm getaway day game.  Also don't know much about Steven Brault. Seems he's been improving over the season but their bats haven't helped him.  Oh, and the choice between the Skins preseason and Scherzday? No question for me anymore. Scherz all the way. I can go back and watch the Skins off the DVR to see something that's mentioned online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan T. Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 The Nats have a game in Chicago at 2:20 tomorrow.  So even if they get the Pirates game in with no delay, it's stiil a brutal schedule with a late night flight and next afternoon game ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skinfan2k Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 during those playoff runs, our leadoff and 2 hole hitters were basically nonexistent. Â if turner and eaton play like they are doing right now, the dodgers will be scared of us. Â 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riggo#44 Posted August 23, 2019 Author Share Posted August 23, 2019 This is going to be one of those annoying games where we should be up 5-6 runs, but we just don't capitalize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bacon Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Starter exits up by only one run...I have a bad feeling about this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
