3.11 ERA the last 10 games.

Pretty surprising to see this sudden run of good pitching.   The team had a 6.75 ERA for the first 18 games this month.   Granted, Texas is a weak hitting team, but Boston and Philly are not.

We threw three straight soft tossing lefties at the Red Sox and made them look bad.

Tonight the Nats are starting Josh Rogers, a soft tossing lefty with some black-and-orange blood in his veins.   Will be interesting to see if Boston's woes continue.

Now I’m torn between the possible pleasure of seeing the Red Sox lose again and the pain of having to endure another series of Nelson Cruuuuz posts about Rogers if he does well.

It's always about the pitching. Always.

On it!

Rogers had 5 shutout innings vs Boston.  They let him bat in the bottom of the 5th and in the top of the 6th Boston got a couple people on and Renfroe and Dalbec hit btb HRs for 4 runs.

How you let a rookie lefty in his 6th inning of work get two men on base with one out and face known lefty killers Renfroe and Dalbec is beyond me.  Is Dave Martinez asleep in the dugout???

They have the 5th overall pick. Like us, they wanna see what they got.

Because our manager already rode Tyler Wells into the ground.

Horrible timing for it too…
