Game Thread: Nats v Twins, 4/22 a 1:10pm CT

[Nine of twelve]

Dicknroy talking about Washington making only one trip here this season. With the new schedule there are only 4 teams coming here twice: CWS, Cle, Det, and KC. It's the same everywhere--the only opponents visiting twice are the teams in the same division.

Pabllo  Radke  Reminder

[CoastiePilot08]

What’s it take to send Baldelli packing? Under .500 at the break?

[Aggies7]

Corey provus: “this is not a good start”

[CoastiePilot08]

Sigh. 

[CoastiePilot08]

Reminder that DC came in with 5 wins. 

[OvertheHill]

Sadly 3-0 feels insurmountable. Check that 4-0. 

[Aggies7]

BOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

[RickOShea]

You can't blame rocco for not having his team ready to open up a homestand with one of the worst teams in baseball.  Man, this guy has what it takes.

You’re not wrong. 2-0 felt insurmountable 

[Aggies7]

The fans must be too cold to boo 

[rwilfong86]

Who would have thought the Nationals would be looking like a decent team against the Twins 

[Dave The Dastardly]

Minnesota isn't a cold-weather team.

[RickOShea]

Rhe Vazquez defense today, hasn't helped.  By the way, what was the main reason to sign him?

[Nine of twelve]

Dicknroy said earlier that the weather is the coldest by 21º that Lopez has ever pitched in. Not trying to make an excuse, but trying to find an explanation. This is certainly not characteristic.

[CRF]

This really sucks. I'd be shocked if we can somehow can score 4 runs today. 

[Aggies7]

Don’t fret everyone, we’ll get right next week against the Yankees

Good thing is that we’ll need more than 4

[OvertheHill]

Looking forward to Pagan pitching in the 5th inning. 

[Vanimal46]

SWR likely to get some extended work this afternoon. 

[Danchat]

Bad starts happen, it's just surprising to see it against the Nationals. You have to think the Twins can put up a few runs against Kuhl...

[RickOShea]

Camera shot showed Pablo paging through new car brochures in dugout.

[CoastiePilot08]

Miranda probably could use a send down.

No. He’ll look like a Cy Young candidate against this piss-poor offense. 

[CRF]

Getting dusted by Kuhl...wouldn't be cool.

It's Navy-out day.  Every fan got a Buxton navy blue jersey to wear.  Every fan looks like this.  

Everyone should get 3 due to crowd size

Nope. Only needs 40 more degrees before he warms up.

[Robert Floren]

Twins don't seem able to score.  Hopeless?

They're making every opposing pitcher look like an ace.

He's batting 9th.

[SwainZag]

Woof.
