I believe he's just trolling us. He makes the same comment often, even after all of the reasons and statistics showing that his statement is laughable.
Ignoring and/or muting is the best course of action.
Agree Vivas should be sent down. Have House and Weimer had enough time in the minors to fix the issues they were sent down for? My guess is probably not. Perhaps a better approach would be to give someone else fm the minors a chance.
LOVE the line up today! Note to Mark: you forgot to change the starter in the line-up list from Lovelady to Alvarez, which is a no harm no foul situation I know…
I hope the sleepy offense wakes up to the tune of 8+ runs today (even though Max Thomas Meyer seems to be pitching well this season) and that Alverez goes at least 6, if not 7, innings of excellent pitching and a quality start. GO NATS!!
Bad: Andrew Alvarez promptly gave up a towering homer off the foul pole to Esteury Ruiz to give the Marlins a 1-0 lead (which could've been 2-0 if not for Ruiz's throw).
I can't believe that the Nats don't have a plan of how to approach those guys, at the plate or on the mound. Why they can't execute it - a mental block where the Fish are concerned?
Same story despite the new regime. It's unexplainable. The Nats can't hit Marlins pitching and Nats pitching can't keep the Marlins from hitting 'em out!
Let's hope for a reset and catch some fish today.
Thanks for the article.
I like today's lineup, it is the strongest one the Nats can offer
Is it time to bring back Mr. House and Weimer and let go Vivas, Tena. and or Andres..
Try Weimer in a rotation at 1st..
Let's go Nats. 😀
Serious question do you have House and Weimer on your Roto/ fantasy team?
No
I do not gamble, it's distasteful
I figured he was involved in one of those predication rackets
You do know Weimer has not even played ⅓ of an inning at 1st base and that his bat is not popping in Rochester?

Sounds like a plan to me! Maybe a fish fanatic.
Actually, I think placing a Polymarket bet that he mentions Weimer playing first is the best course of action.
But then, yes, definitely yours.
That is brilliant!
No it is not.

Insert facepalm emoji.
Thanks for catching that! Just fixed it.

We are underway on a sun-splashed, 79-degree Wednesday afternoon at Nationals Park.
Nice 1st inning by Alverez!
Nats pitching continues to make the Marlins look like the '27 Yankees. SMH
Good: Keibert Ruiz threw out another basestealer.
Bad: Andrew Alvarez promptly gave up a towering homer off the foul pole to Esteury Ruiz to give the Marlins a 1-0 lead (which could've been 2-0 if not for Ruiz's throw).
Cursing Fish and their HRs
While feeling thankful for Keibert.
Again, the Marlins came into DC with a 5 game losing streak. ugh
Yes, the Nats too often seem to be the cure for what ails them.
However, plenty of game left to turn that around.
Haven't we been saying that for the last two nights?
Hope so!!
Third time's the charm!
I'm kinda glad they don't play Miami again for a while.
I can't believe that the Nats don't have a plan of how to approach those guys, at the plate or on the mound. Why they can't execute it - a mental block where the Fish are concerned?
I mean, right? They have 20% of their homeruns vs. the Nats - either they know something the Nats don't, or the Nats scouting reports are off.
Or our pitchers are not executing the game plans and they punish the mistakes..
I'd be willing to bet that's more likely.
I'd be willing to bet lots of betting dollars have changed hands regarding this series:))
Leadoff Fish batters seem to get on base a LOT against us. Not sure what the stats are but seems that way.
Same story despite the new regime. It's unexplainable. The Nats can't hit Marlins pitching and Nats pitching can't keep the Marlins from hitting 'em out!
I don't mind a solo dinger. WAKE UP OFFENSE! GET SOME DINGERS OF OUR OWN!!
Aside from the Gopher ball, Alvarez is looking much sharper today. Now if the Nats bats could just get going.
This kid Joe Mack is going to be a player to watch.
Yup!!
Good AB by LGJr there
And not a good AB by Nuñez
Garcia is becoming a patient hitter??? I've seen a change at least by situation.
Fouling off some good two-strike pitches, too.
Yes surprising.
OK Dylan, gotta make that pitch around backfire.
