The Heyward injury seems to have sucked the life out of this team.
I know Teheran finished the 6th strong, but not sure about leaving him out here for all these pitches.

Great play by CJ on that one. Made it look easy.
Playing at St. Louis was not exactly a great situation for us following Heyward's injury. They're pretty clearly a better team than we are when Heyward is on the DL and all their guys are healthy.
Suddenly, there's not much to be excited about with this team. Heyward's injury sure deflated the team and fans. I honestly believe the Nats have a good chance of catching us now. The Braves are in a bad spot and I can see it lighting the "fire" under the Nats' butts to play better. Hope it doesn't happen, but unless Heyward can come back for the post season and pick up where he left off, do any of you see us making it past the first round?
