Chopping With The Braves And Rolling With The Tide
One of the post game guys was saying if the batter hits the catcher on a back swing it's a dead ball. If that's the case then the whole series of events after the passed ball shouldn't have happened.
Nats fans will be bitching about that call for 10 years just like we bitch about the infield fly call.

Watching the Nationals lose in the NLDS will never not be awesome.

God, I needed that game last night.
Damn, I fell asleep in the top of the 8th.
I feel a tiny amount of compassion for the gnats and fans...but its so tiny that its probably not real, more like white noise or rounding error.

Was kinda feeling bad for them watching, then i realized.
No, this is too enjoyable.
Hopefully Harper dips to a big market like LA or Chicago.
If Albies can even become 80% the player Altuve is ...

#3 in the 2016 AL MVP voting.
Probably higher this year.
4.5 or higher WAR each of the past four seasons, with a high of 7.5 this year.
I don't think he will age particularly well but even if he doesn't he has an excellent chance for the HoF.
Albies is a nice prospect, but yeah the odds of any prospect going to the HoF are low, to put it mildly. I do think Albies has a good chance (about 50%) of being a perennial All-Star. That would not be too shabby. What about odds of even higher accomplishment. I'd say about 5% chance he becomes an MVP caliber player and 1% chance he makes the HoF. ymmv

Corey Seager off the LA NLCS roster, must be hurt.
