the fox announcers said today that Philly was the better team. because Philly had the better pitching.. which is funny because i remember you guys saying the phillies had no pitching on the old board lol Braves didn’t overpay for an aging “ace” to sure up their rotation. Thank God for that! FWIW (which ain't much), I still think the gnats will come out on top when all is said and done, unfortunately. I hope that I'm wrong, but Harper is probably gonna go on some insane hot streak, and neither of the Braves or Phailies can match them if they're clicking. They have issues, though. Roark hasn't had a good year, Gonzalez has been so-so, and Strasburg is always hurt, so I could easily be wrong. I sure hope I am.

You forgot the biggest things...Murphy’s injury and Harper’s struggles. If those things right themselves the Nats will come on if not, then stick a fork in them. Sherzer isn’t known for being a big game winner either so I wouldn’t rest my hopes on a wild card if I were them.

That goes without saying, but the phollies are still playing over their head. the fox announcers said today that Philly was the better team. because Philly had the better pitching.. which is funny because i remember you guys saying the phillies had no pitching on the old board lol That’s an appeal to authority fallacy. Just because they’re announcers doesn’t mean they know what they’re talking about.

Just because they’re announcers doesn’t mean they know what they’re talking about.Our announcers are proof of that.
