There's a game on Tuesday that I would argue we have a pitching advantage in. And if we win it there's another one, possibly with an ace on the mound. All this game does it take the pressure on game 5 and add it into game 6. Yes. And you’re just playing to get to that game 7 if you lose game 5. Win game 6 & anything can happen in the wacky game7.

clskinsfan Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 We have scored 2 runs in 21 innings at home. PATHETIC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade7 Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 Just now, -JB- said: Why pitch him on short rest tonight when he can just go game 6 on regular rest? Max likely won’t be ready until game 7 if he can’t lift his arm now. If you pitch Stras on short rest then who do you pitch game 6 if Max isn’t ready? They made the right move. And the bats are the problem right now. 1 for last 21 with RISP. If Max isn't ready the series may be over based on the logic of Corbin being on too short a rest for game 7. They lose this game today, this series may be over, that's why you put him out there on 3 days rest instead of 4. I agree the bats need to wake up, but its all your cards on the table time, we're getting close to that point of putting all available starters you have left type of game.

Bacon Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 The series could be over if we lose tonight. It's completely ****ing over if Strasburg loses tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's typically not how that works from my understanding, going against the team with the best home record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm nervous or next game will be elimination and then we HAVE to win two in Houston, the best home team in baseball. Has a team ever lost all their home games in a world series and still win it? Does it matter if there was or not? It has no bearing on the current state of affairs. How many times have a team's best two pitchers all pitched on the road? It's a short rest. You play game 6 regardless of what happens tonight. And it's between a 3 day rest vs a 5 day rest cause of travel day. Trotting out Stras tonight on short rest and then Ross on the road just because of a feeling that you have to win one at home makes no sense.

I'm looking, I cannot find one. That's the best home team in a baseball, that's not a feeling, that's a fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is only the 4th inning. The Nats bats have been PATHETIC through right about now at home BUT it ain’t over yet and MAYBE you can Luck your way into winning this game. If that happens then you have a chance to close the series out with Stras on the hill and on full rest! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have the worst bullpen in postseason history. 77% of teams who win the first two games on the road win it all. There are lots of statistics you could throw out to guarantee victory or dismiss us. Common sense matters more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think its over either, I'm speaking from the odds of winning this series having to win all our games on the road. That just doesn't even sound right, this is the a must win game, the momentum has completely swung to Houston now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
