    Giles is hurt, no one is trading for him.

    A win is great. Negates the loss from last night.

    But what the actual hell? From up 11-1 in the 7th to an 11-8 win? This is all the momentum the Gnats will need tomorrow to win 2-of-3.

    Momentum is as good as your next days starter and the Braves have Soroka

    Only winning by 3 means first place is pretty much gone.

    I know I’ve brought it up a couple of times in the last few days but that’s why I kept saying we needed BP help more then a SP.We are finally regressing and have a manager that has no clue how to properly use what we do have.
    Martin is a great start.
    Now we just need one more solid piece so Snit doesn’t have to think to much in the late innings.

    Momentum is only as much as your next game but it does burn our pen a little bit.

    Hopefully we'll have Martin for the game.

    Gonna need Soroka to quiet the GNats bats, they're swinging it.

    Relax. Guys have bad stretches. Acuna is like 0-45 with 70 Ks this series alone. Just be glad we absorbed the bad game with a win. Both Ajax and Szak needed to shake the rust. Both will be available tomorrow. Go to bed happy dudes.

    I think Swarzak could be available, dont think Jackson is.

    True, but if Soroka doesn't give us 6-7 innings tomorrow, our bullpen was burned in a game we held an 11-1 lead at one point.

    probably Newk, Sobotka and Tomlin in high leverage situations...possibly for multiple innings

    When Duvall cools off, just promote Demeritte to hit 10 bombs in a week.

    i remember when the Nats had all this momentum after the 15 to whatever drubbing they gave Atlanta a couple weeks ago.
    so much momentum the Braves won 2 of the next 3.
