Then, let's not regress all the way to the mean.
Let's get Gohara in here to help with the pitching.
Let's move Julio to the pen. - Or at least skip his start on Sunday in Coors.
Let's get Acuna up here.
Let's get Suzuki back behind the plate.
Let's get Tyler back.
Let's get Carmargo back.

Julio needs to start in Coors. He's been great in the ballpark and the Nationals kill him.

This is weird. I feel like Perez was really struggling to handle Folty's stuff and anything that was on the corners wasn't getting called for a strike because of Perez's poor framing skills.

Even when he did frame it okay there were a few strikes the ump just refused to call while giving strikes well off the corner to the other side. I hated that ump, though he did give us a couple high strike and low strike calls at key times to somewhat make up for it. One of those was with Freeman pitching with the bases loaded too.

Julio has been better at Coors, oddly enough. Now whether that continues is another story. Coors is not a good place for any flyball pitcher to pitch. I don't like the idea of Sanchez pitching there either.

The ump was clearly horrible today but Perez's framing skills didn't do our pitchers any favors. He stabbed at anything not in the middle of the zone and dropped a ton of pitches.

Rather him pitch at Coors than face the Nationals again. We need to hide him from facing the Nationals as much as possible. Harper is his daddy.

Didn’t Julio have an era in the 2s vs Nats last season?

Good catch, Julio gave up 7 runs at home his first start vs them but followed that with three in Washington where he gave up two runs total in those games (that in his second game vs them). He went 7 innings in each game, and 7 scoreless the last two games. His ERA was 3.24 total but he was great in Washington. He also did his best on extra rest as he would be on if starting game one in Washington. So yea there is a case for him starting then instead of Sunday.
