CobraCommander Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Just now, Dan T. said: Yeah Max went 7, got the win and fanned 10, including Altuve, swinging, three times. He’ll wear a Nats cap in Cooperstown though. If he doesn't I will literally cry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won’t respond to anything else. Heavy on the gate keeping, dude. It’s not a good look. I specifically said "I'm not gatekeeping, I'm wondering if you remember those teams." There are many fans who only became fans during 2012-19, which is fine, I have no problem with that. Maybe get some thicker skin and try reading next time. 9 minutes ago, Florgon79 said: If he doesn't I will literally cry. That would be outrageous and a total slap in the face to the Nationals.

PleaseBlitz Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Quote Although Max Scherzer is no longer with the Nationals after his recent trade to the Los Angeles Dodgers, the All Star pitcher and his wife Erica are showing their thanks to the DC community by covering all adoption fees at the Humane Rescue Alliance from Wednesday, August 4, through Tuesday, August 10. The weeklong promotion comes at a critical time for the Rescue Alliance, because the group’s shelter and foster homes are currently at full capacity. “Through this gift, they are making it possible for more Washingtonians to expand their families,” Humane Rescue Alliance president and CEO Lisa LaFontaine said in a press release. “It is a fitting legacy of kindness, generosity and compassion.” 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless something astonishing happens in the next few years, the Hall would probably veto any team that's not the Nats or at least Detroit (doubt Max would choose Detroit). Then again Nolan Ryan went in as a Ranger and he didn't play for them until he turned 42. We might start to see the increase of logo less caps in the Hall due to increased movement in free agency. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PleaseBlitz Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Only way Max goes in as anything but a Nat is if he wins 2 WS in LA and gets wins in both. Even then it's iffy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good article on it. Player has input, but the Hall makes the choice: https://www.forbes.com/sites/danschlossberg/2019/01/24/how-to-solve-baseball-hall-of-fame-hat-flap/?sh=59806dfb750c 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely right about the Russell part. The adoration and appreciation that Max got here will be anything close to what he will get in LA. Big difference between Nats fans and Dodgers fans. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LA fans would throw Max in the Pacific right off Point Dume if he went through a rough spell. They gave him love in his opening game after 10 strike outs. If they didn’t cheer like hell they suck as sport fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sure hope I'm wrong, but I'm not seeing a lot of room for optimism in his outlook. I'd like to point out that basically from the second I posted these words of wisdom, Kieboom has been on an absolute tear and looks awesome.
