Don’t know when the last year was when I didn’t have panic attacks anytime the camera cut to the bullpen. But good lord is it atrocious AGAIN, year after year after year. Shout out the usual bats for bailing them out today, and welcome back James Wood to form with a great game!
I miss FP and Bob. We didn’t know how good we had it back then, did we? Dan doesn’t grate on my nerves like he did last year. He seems to ramble on less or maybe I’m just getting used to it. Alexa is great.
he's not a great defensive shortstop, but he can hit when he's in the mood... he'll be a free agent before the Nationals are a truly great team again.
The Nationals have a couple/few shortstops coming up through the system who just might be better, and Nasim Nunez today is heads and shoulders above C.J. defensively (still don't know if he can hit enough.)
Glad I watched til the end. Offense was exceptional but can’t rely on 7+ runs to be able to win. Toboni must figure out the bullpen problem. But, this game
had more positives than negatives. Betura managed a good game PH Mead and Vivas. IMO, Solve the bullpen and Nats can surprise in 2026.
Curly W is in the books! Way to battle back boys!
Great win!!
A win is a win but…it takes 9 runs to get a win? How many games can the offense keep this up?

What a difference a day makes!
Nats got a chance to do what we saw the Dodgers do to us.
Dodgers are up 14-1 over Toronto just now...
I turned it off when they were trailing 6-3 in the 8th.
You can thank me later.
lol me too, I missed the rally
Fundamental error. Only turn the game off when the bullpen is pitching, not when the hitters are up......
Hey, cut me a little slack. I stuck around for the entire Dan Uggla against the Braves game way back when.😁
Brady House looks like a guy who is putting it all together.
Left side of the infield is producing like Rendon+Turner
This offense can become a tad dangerous if they're not careful! GO NATS!! ⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️
Nationals were third in all of MLB in runs scored coming into this game... I doubt they'll drop in that particular standing tonight.
Watching postgame interviews, it occurred to me that James Wood has the same low key, monotone speaking style as Ryan Zimmerman!
I'd guess that he doesn't want the gig, but Ryan would be an exponential improvement over Frandsen in the booth
I love Zim but you can’t have a color guy who speaks in black and white
I'd prefer black and white with some actual insight to "gotta find a way!"
I miss FP, and now I miss Bob, although I can stand Dan Kolko in the booth. And I like Alexa a lot

I think we knew how good we had it, and yes, Alexa is great.
How about a booth of Dan, Zim and Alexa.
Franzen has a voice that carries. I love Zim doing color/analysis, but his voice doesn't carry and I often find him difficult to hear.
for me, Frandsen has a voice that annoys... he's probably a great guy, but he adds nothing but bluster to the broadcasts.
I listen to the Nationals on the radio stream now... Dave and Charlie are really good save for that idiotic Bang!Zoom! home run thing.
For watching games? I watch the Mets games. Not that I care a whit about the Mets, but Gary, Keith, and Ron are just so good.
And a slow heart rate too
Way to come back. Truly. House, Abrams! Better plate appearances in general.
C.J. just might bring quite the haul come late July...
Noooo
Why do they want to trade Abrams? Is he a Boras guy, is that why?
he's not a great defensive shortstop, but he can hit when he's in the mood... he'll be a free agent before the Nationals are a truly great team again.

More evidence of how absolutely awful Coles was as a hitting coach.
they weren't great, but the 2025 Nationals weren't terrible at the plate, either...
dunno whether Coles was good/bad/neither as a coach, but maybe the new crew's approach to analytics/equipment/etc. might just be helping, maybe.
64 runs scored through 10 games. That's pretty good.
65 runs allowed through 10 games. That's not good.
4-6 record after 10 games? I'll take it. Could be 6-4, but it's better than I expected.

I hate this bullpen. I love this offense. I'm going to be on an emotional rollercoaster all summer.
Nice to see James Wood returning to form. The comeback was heartwarming to see.
so, it wasn't just the D.C. nine... Dodgers closed out their World Series rivals in Toronto, 14-2.
up the parkway in Charm City, the Orioles have matched the Nationals at 4-6 with a stirring 2-1 win over the White Sox.
Tampa beat Craig Counsell's Cubs, leaving them at 4-6 as well.
Give Toboni & Co. some time.
