We deserve to lose this one.
Welp...completely erases the good work done in the last two series. We should be 2-1 in this series. Ouch.
I wonder how the brass can sit there from their catered suite and contiunuously watch this montrosity of a bullpen that they just put band aides on at the deadline....
So was Brach unavailable by one of Snit’s random decisions or what? Why isn’t he the go-to righty there?

How many pitches does it take Davis to go 1-2-3? Over/under 10.
Marlins lead Nats 7-5.
Yes.
In all honesty, Minter was probably actually hurt. No, he's not the Craig Kimbrel everyone is fond of, but unless you just consider him as due for a meltdown, he isn't as bad as tonight. He's a 2.5-3 ERA pitcher in reality, respectable, but everyone is preferring better as closer.
Now for the 10th...someone tell me why Luke Jackson was in a game that was really needed? Biddle had enough rest to where it should've been him.
Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.
I keep remembering Acuña's double that only missed going out by a couple of feet.
