Dude was standing on third already when D'Arnaud made the throw. And then he threw it away. We were fundamentally a better team with two rookie catchers.

Same pitching staff we had all season when we owned them.

Freddie needs to just have a productive postseason series and not strike out with a runner on third with one out in a critical spot to make up for it. Until then, he's on the shit list.
And we were hot for most of the season, they were not. Come playoff time, the Nats were on fire and we were struggling.

After the last series between us and the Nats, the Nats went 11-3 including an 8 game win streak to end the season. And played 2 playoff teams in the Cardinals and Indians.

On the flip side, we went 4-7 and played one team with a record above .500 and that was the Mets.

First even decent game this year, he was hitting .143 before tonight with 1 RBI and shit ton of runners LOB in 5 games. About time he’s doing something good

Both teams were on fire in August and early September. We faced them in multiple series. We still owned them.

Inciarte .133
Acuna .143
Riley .143
Duvall .143
Adams .176
Albies .217

5 or 6 games isn’t going to tell the tale.

It’s baseball. I know you’re not new to the game. It happens.
And when it does and it's a critical spot and you're the face of the franchise, you deserve every bit of the criticism you get, and when said franchise hasn't won a playoff series since 2001, and you play a key role in extending that streak, you need to expect some saltiness.

Yep and then you let it go and move on.

Such a weak minded team this year. Still hungover after Freddie's no show in the playoffs I guess.

O'Day should do the right thing and retire, and so should Snit. This shit shouldn't happen every God damn game.
