Really need a win to wash the taste of last night out of our mouth. I think we would all have been happy taking 2 of 3 in this series.

Swanson scuffles a little and bam... to the bench! Kemp is setting MLB records for losing WAR and he won't come out no matter what

WAR is incomplete. It doesn't count things like veteran leadership, clutchness and protection.

[WaitingFor2017]

It's refreshing to see a team use a batter with a tremendous OBP in the 2 hole....I'm not talking about Snit the Twit's lineup.

Agreed. It's ridiculous that Kemp and Phillips is out there. I'd bench him. I'd also bench Phillips for his poor range, but he did get a couple of hits last night.

So you would put Santana or Lane Adams in place of Kemp? Swanson needs a day off imo.

Swanson has had Monday and Wednesday off of this week.

Santana is on the DL. I would put Adams in place of Kemp.

Swanson needs to play... he's already had 2 days off this week. He's the future... play him. Kemp needs the rest, not dansby

I think it's more to get Camargo in the lineup, they'll trade Phillips soon.

I hope you're right on Phillips. I'd love to see camargo get to play there every day or Albies even more

[SJ24]

Dansby has way too many days off for a future cornerstone.

Yep. Sorry for missing this.

[CrimeDog247]

Close to 90 at game time. Strasburg usually struggles in heat. Teheran needs to have a good game heading into the break.

those are his hairdresser days
