Really good all around Catcher. I never thought for a second Rizzo would go that high for his services though. Wondering who he’s looking to bring in to play alongside Gomes.

That's fine, they've paid a ton of money to be not as good as the last two years. Their pitching still sucks something awful. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhead36 Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Dang I wanted Realmoto. I feel like he would have put this lineup over the top and we could legit slug our way to 95 wins and a pennant. I still want one more big bat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their pitching still sucks something awful. If you're the Nats, them signing Realmuto for 5/115 is watching your opponent make a mistake. Maybe they're betting on the NL adopting the DH at some point and if that's the case that's probably not a bad signing. But I wouldn't give a 30 year old catcher (he will play the 2021 season at age 30) 5/115. Or maybe they believe he can move to first base or something, too. I'd be shocked if he's still catching at age 35 and doing it well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this is not a good move for them. They have a decent lineup, but not as good as the Mets, Braves, or Nats. Their pitching is the worst in the division. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s good for around 100 games started I think. Avila I have no clue about but if he has caught a good number of guys in our rotation before that’s livable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmirOfShmo Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Pitcher comfort with a specific catcher is an underappreciated stat. It goes beyond the signals & ability to frame pitches. Pitchers, by nature, have fragile psyches that good catchers get in tune with & can eek out the inner strengths of the guys toeing the rubber. Not that I would know... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riggo#44 Posted February 2, 2021 Author Share Posted February 2, 2021 I understood Rendon leaving. I was fine with Harper signing elsewhere, as well as pretty much everyone else. This one actually makes me sad. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRobi21 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 ****ing Covid... Some winter in the near future when this **** is over, there needs to be a 2019 Nats full team reunion. All players in uniform. Stadium full. And they get the full roster announced on the field. Get the reception the deserve. And re-display the World Series banner. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commander -JB- Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Baby Shark Parra back with Nats on minor league deal with invite to spring training. I swear I was just thinking why not bring him back he was such a vital piece to that championship team even if it was mainly locker room presence. 🏆 🦈 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan T. Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Soto vs. Mookie? MLB baseball writers debate: https://www.mlb.com/news/mookie-betts-or-juan-soto-for-best-right-fielder?partnerId=zh-20210204-156906-MLB&qid=1026&bt_ee=IgiRk2%2FcBP1LVxPDeK2qiyUlTfJYgrj3GDT9PBN2AwOgVoM%2FgFyA%2BVH15IU9VNBT&bt_ts=1612441915999 Late last season, the Nationals started Juan Soto in right field for the first six times in his young Major League career. Then in January, the club signed free-agent left fielder Kyle Schwarber, which seemed to make the transition official. At this point, Soto is projected as Washington’s starting right fielder. One interesting implication of that: Soto now shares a position with Mookie Betts. That created a quandary for the panelists participating in MLB Network’s “Top 10 players Right Now” series, which aired its final episode, on right fielders on Wednesday night. “The Shredder” determined, through its cold calculations, that Betts is the No. 1 right fielder for 2021. But some of the panelists, including MLB.com’s Sarah Langs and Mike Petriello, disagreed. This was a topic that merited further debate, even if there is clearly no wrong answer. So MLB.com convened a roundtable of reporters to discuss who should reign supreme. https://www.mlb.com/news/mookie-betts-or-juan-soto-for-best-right-fielder?partnerId=zh-20210204-156906-MLB&qid=1026&bt_ee=IgiRk2%2FcBP1LVxPDeK2qiyUlTfJYgrj3GDT9PBN2AwOgVoM%2FgFyA%2BVH15IU9VNBT&bt_ts=1612441915999 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bearrock Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Almost nothing would make me happier than to see Juan Soto become a Nat for life. What a treat it is to have him in the Nation's capital. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
