The Nats have to go 25-8. if they only at .500. on 9/1, that means they'd have to go 22-3 the rest of the way. Face it, it's over. But you were saying that back in May.

I want to see lots of callups in September even if the season is not over for the Nats (personally, I think it is.) <br /><br />If the above list is the most major league-ready players, it is not very impressive. Krol, Mattheus, Brown, Marreo have been up and haven't seized the opportunity. <br /><br />I would like to see a lot of Perez, to me the best potential of the lot. Perez and Kobernus would fit on the Nats' bench next year.<br /><br />I've moved on from Davey.

It seemed like Perez got permanently on Davey's bad side when he stole a base without getting the sign in 2012. In spring training 2012 Davey stated how tough it was to send Brown down, but that he would be back up.Well, for his return trip back he didn't need to pack much more than his toothbrush.Joe Seamheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17000259234420985114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-35350298681323603792013-08-25T11:37:21.585-04:002013-08-25T11:37:21.585-04:00should have done that in the first place. should have done that in the first place.
