Six early games with FOUR of them being west coast games [spacer height=”10px”] WEATHER No issues [spacer height=”10px”] I am making a stand with just two guys today. There’s viable options beyond these two and that’s nice and all, but you don’t come out on a 6 game early slate and write up 5 pitchers and then act l ike you are actually saying something for the readers. If you want to know who else is pitching, then pay attention when you set your lineup or go read some implied run total horse crap. I’m not actually yelling at any of you, you are all great. I’m just yelling. LOGAN WEBB This is straight up comical at this point.

Wednesday, August 17th, Rockies 12 Nationals 10. It was Gray vs Strasburg who gave up a touchdown to Emmanuel Sanders in the first inning. Funny thing about that game? Gerrardo Parra, who would later become a Nationals folk hero in…...
