It's amusing how quick people jump all over him after a bad start or inning. He's our best pitcher and will be for the next 5 years.

Until Fried is up at least ;-)

excellent pitching... Someone needs to debate Newk and Folty..

Hope folty 1-up's him tomorrow

More than welcome to check my comments. I think he is wild... but after the second inning, I said he didn't miss arm side to righties which is usually a good sign for Newk. Nothing is different with him.. you know what you are getting within the first two innings. if he is missing arm side, then longish day.. if not.. forget about it..

Nats announcers claiming "fix" on the called third strike to Adams LOL.

Truly the worst crew in all of announcerdom.

The Cards are terrible..

 

[Orphan Black]

Fixed it for you.

MLB tonight loves the Braves. Said we need josh Donaldson.

Also, harold Reynolds said mlb draft should have teams trading picks for guys like josh Donaldson. Said it would make draft more entertaining. I agree

Going from the Mets announcers to the Nats truly represents the entire spectrum.

So true. No reason teams can’t trade draft picks.

I think everyone would agree the team is in a funk right now, so it’s nice to see them grind out these tough wins to avoid a tailspin.

The presence of F. P. Santangelo says it all.

they seem to party too hard after the walk offs and come out flat and lose the next day

solution: no more walk offs

2nd best.

Sorry.

I know Keith Hernandez said something silly this week, but I’ll take the Mets SNY crew any day over many different broadcasters any day. The Nats, not so much.

To be fairy, the game ending call was kind of a joke. But against the Nats...I’ll take it.

The Umps have been terrible this year.. so about time one breaks our way.. although, the home ump did a good job over all..

Ump was fairly consistent most of the night. Neither side had a problem with him. Yeah he blew strike 3 to Adams but odds are Adams still gets out. The home plate ump wasn't the difference in this game.

The Braves outplayed the Nats plain and simple. It could have been much worse than it was.

I thought we "routined" them, which for me is the best kind of win

Safe to say newk was overly amped got his start against Boston? More likely scenario is that the Boston lineup is absurdly good.
