As long a one of Folty/Gausman come back healthy and effective I think we are clearly the better regular season team. But, when you get into a playoff format and you have to face Scherzer twice in 5/7 games - That gets dicey.

The Nats are probably a little better than the Braves, but my money is on the team with a big lead in the division.
The Braves have been about 3 games lucky so far, but those wins count. The Nats have a lot of ground to make up, the Braves are also very good, and have the resources to add significant pieces.
Those comments about the Nats being dead in July were pure idiocy, but the Braves are still the heavy favorite right now.
This is just surreal...
That is crazy. Have they said the official cause of death yet?
Giles not warming up and they have a 2-0 lead over the Yankees in the 9th.
Are he and Stroman getting on a plane?
Sox acquired Cashner...
Nats just placed Scherzer on the DL.
