Fuck the DH
He's having a positive K:IP season that's rare for a guy known for innings. Take advantage of that, I guess.

Joe Ross needs TJ surgery and will likely miss most of 2018 in addition to this season.

I think this means the Nats 5th starter becomes... Edwin Jackson? gently caress.
Fedde is in AAA now I think. Might as well try him.

If I was a manager I think I'd try to get ejected as much as possible. It'll rally the troops and also prevent me from making awful bullpen decisions.

Also that's weird because I was at a low-A game between the Nats and A's affiliates last night.

Nats get a good lefty and righty for their pen, good news for them. I'll miss Doolittle, one of the coolest guys in sports. I'm so numb to losing our guys lol. Vogt and Doolittle were the only ones left from the A's run a couple years ago.

e: forgot Sonny. But he's good as gone too.

I like this a lot. Luzardo was highly regarded but has pitched fewer than 15 innings of professional baseball and I'm perfectly content to let somebody else try to figure out how to make Blake Treinen good. As long as Madson and Doolittle can avoid publicly choking Bryce Harper in the dugout this looks like an awesome return.

It seems pretty drat good for the Nats. Yankees should go get Yonder for a song now, too.

I've heard from one or two reports that the Yankees were trying to drive up the price for Boston re: Todd Frazier, but I kind of wonder if acquiring him might be a smart move in and of itself. Keeps him out of Boston, gives you a Headley/Frazier platoon and still leaves more than enough prospect capital to get Alonso and/or Hand.

That would kind of suck but I'm hoping for a Jed Lowrie reunion so v:shobon:v

Doolittle and Bryce are about to be best buds.

But yeah, that's a weird return for the A's.

That explains why the Cubs scored 27 runs in 3 games against them, but the O's are still pretty decent, offensively.
