Man, Jistic's gonna be pissed!

My advice was to blow up his team.

Goodness, this is the worst season I've had... fitting that Indy and I are among the worst in the league having come into the league at the same time :)

super quiet to waiver front

Looks like Daly lost a step. He's only going for 60 SB this year.

1997...the worst season in D.C. since 1980....maybe the worst All-Time.

I'm officially waving the white flag. Wow. I really thought this team had a stretch run in them. Check out the waiver thread. There are plenty of easily available Bats remaining.

Now we go into "Next Year Mode." Or even, "Competitive Tanking." Some youngsters will get some at bats. Some players headed towards for Free-Agency or players without guaranteed contracts next year, could be waived/cut entirely.

The Washington franchise has only finished sub .500 one year, 1980, when the Bats went 72-90 in their third year in the league. This team is on pace for a better finish but it will probably come right down to the wire. My owner expects us to win the championship and we are going to have the worst season ever? Should be interesting to see what happens to my budget now.

Youngsters, Antonio Trujillo and Pat Marlin both had HUGE weeks this past week. Also the time has finally come for Gremades to finally come back after recovering a concussion in early May. Its also time to make a late push for that Porter crown and show Funclown and Clay they might as well stop praying for a late season collapse from the Bulldogs this year.

I don't use my prayers on Baltimore unless it's for a 6th season of The Wire.

He's hitting #3 a lot this season. Asking him to do a few different things.

Great job, Matt.

I was surprised when Pat called off the trade block and resigned everyone...being 11 back...but I figured good for him. Now the dream has been crushed.

We keep it real.
