7/20... 2nd half begins - Nats game 1

[Braves1976]

Padres have a deep pen without them but certainly helps for sure.

It didn't look too deep tonight watching that 8th inning.

Brewers after kick our butt have 6 straight lose and going for 7 tonight. Tomorrow is Kershaw pitching against them.

I am still more worried about Nats than Phillies.

Bit I may be a dummy

It's evened out but the funny thing on Camargo is the advanced stats were saying he was hitting into tough luck earlier. And now it's just about even.

I used to be in that camp but I'm starting to understand why the Nats are a .500-ish club

Great 2nd half start

I've been in this camp, but the Nats keep losing and Philly keeps winning, shrugs shoulders.

 

[Tapate50]

My first thought is potential.

Bit a question I am pondering... If Acuna hit the open market this off-season, what would his contract be?

Kinda reminds me of the JHey contract. Paying mostly for prime and potential

 

[Garmel]

We're gonna love the regression

Camargo is pretty good for a 45.

 

[Managuarantano's Volunteers]

That whole mess was just a good advertisement for what an awesome dude Freddie is. Shouldn’t be considered any more or any less than that.

Yeah, I know, I was kinda messing. It was genuinely great though.

If Acuna was on open market this year could he get $300m? Or is that insane?

$300m for how many years?

Phillies playing Padres right after they traded two key bullpen arms, good break for them and they could sweep Padres because of it.

Good breaks is the refrain of the Phils season

You gotta estimate what Trout would get first, then adjust for age.

Easier to just adjust US dollars to Venezuelan currency

So if it's going to be longer than just sitting out for the rest of the weekend, then why not have him go to the DL? I guess since it's Miami after Washington the thought might be trying to get away with a short bench.

Take care of the game in front of us that night and it doesn't matter.

Harper has never had 100 RBI in any season and only plated in 150+ games once in his career. He is going to be a hasben by 30.

I know the thing I’m looking for in a player is how well his teammates do getting on base in front of him. Tells me all I need to know about his ability to hit.
