MedicCook · 01-14-2015, 08:02 PM

If they didn't actually win any series in the playoffs the speculation here was he was going to be the first coach to be fired twice after taking teams to the playoffs. Nice guy but maybe not the best field general.

Max to Nats. Damn. I guess declining the Tigers offer last year paid off.

CigarSquid · 01-20-2015, 09:03 AM

I am looking forward to this year. Right now, on paper, A's seem pretty decent with all the moves that went on in the off season. I'll be heading down for spring training so I can learn the team!

Nats have one heck of a rotation now. Not like they didn't before

01-23-2015, 10:10 PM

Nats make the NL east not fun. I mean come on who can compete with their starters?? Tigers aren't left with their d!ck in their hand though, they still have good starting pitching and a nice lineup to boot.

The Poet · 01-23-2015, 10:24 PM

The NL East hasn't been fun for a long time. The Braves ruled for a decade+, then the Phillies had it tied up for a while, and now the Nats are ruling the roost.

Makes you wonder why anybody would be a Mets fan.

01-23-2015, 10:51 PM

Mets have some nice young prospects.. Plus bababooey can throw a hell of a first pitch!!!

icehog3 · 01-23-2015, 11:22 PM

Shocked to hear the Sox signed Soto, Nate.

01-23-2015, 11:27 PM

Me and you both Tom. He'll likely stay in the Minors.. I hope

Cub nation in mourning today
Mr. Cub Ernie Banks passed away yesterday at the age of 83

It's a beautiful day for a ballgame... Let's play two!

Work? I never worked a day in my life. I always loved what I was doing, had a passion for it.

Projected spot in the 2015 World Series ..... Go Nats!

Whiskeyrunner · 01-24-2015, 01:34 PM

Not to worry anybody ...... as a Nats fan, have struggled through 2 early exits (Cards ad Giants) from the 1st round of the playoffs in the past couple years.

Hitting and rookie manager did us in!

Agreed rotation THE BEST, however as seen in the Giants playoff games, it only took some poor hitting and a rookie manager to send us packing once again
