| They got it to 6-0 and then the bullpen choked. You think they're letting Strasburg go the distance when he was on an innings limit all year? Reply Back to Top |
quote: It's a dumbass move by the organization. They didn't think they were going to be as good as they were this year, as soon as they realized this was going to be a special year, they still shut down their star pitcher. Makes me happy to see them lose. You don't sit below mediocrity for fricking years and then not do the things necessary to help yourself when opportunities come. Reply Back to Top |

quote: It's not a foregone conclusion, no, but shutting down one of your best players that isn't even hurt? c'mon. It threw off the entire rotation. Has a much bigger impact than some people give credit for. This post was edited on 10/12 at 11:28 pm Reply Back to Top |

Posted by Bench McElroy on 10/12 at 11:34 pm to Honkus quote: You could also make the case that the Nationals might not have even needed to use their bullpen with Strasburg on the mound. Just look at the way Sabathia and Verlander went the distance in their teams' deciding games. Strasburg easily could have done the same in a game like this. Reply Back to Top Refresh |
