and now the greatest pitcher on the planet apparently is in for Durham

Kopech's fastball command is fantastic tonight. Slider hasn't been very good but hasn't really needed it.

too technical for me when they show the view from behind the pitcher, they're only showing the faces of the first row.

Even when Kopech is throwing balls, he's pretty close to the zone. Really impressive so far against a bunch of good hitters.

nope

just put it on milb tv. Where you sitting/wearing?

Rutherford had a great looking swing for a triple. Also really impressed with Gonzalez swing. Almost homered to left and right in same at bat.

So Hickman walked first 6 guys he faced and got pulled. Not sure I've ever seen that.

Does Jabari automatically get the last guy announced in starting lineup status?

Looking at some of the garbage the Nats are starting, Shields makes a ton of sense for them sooner rather than later.

Absolute joke.

Truly amazing how much this coaching staff sucks. Can't wait until they are all replaced.

Of course, has to allow more runners before they wake up. No reason in the world to push him but they will.

Bullcity on twitter, is that you?

Hopefully off tomorrow and then back next Friday. Just hope Ricky doesn't have him steal

Definitely seems to be the ball hitting him caused the injury

Agreed, if they were worried about structural damage, then you would hope it was a cart.

What a bunch of idiots on this team. Can't even handle a normal relay

It could easily be a contusion and he's back Friday. Reminds me of Yolmer play from a few weeks ago

Please be a contusion. This is the season from hell

Good for Ricky, this ump sucks

Hopefully he gets to use an aluminum bat or trained with Bonds. If not, he's just another replacement level guy. I do laugh that LaMarre seems to be a righty Tilson in terms of weak contact.

Never seen so many low fastball called 3rd. Another example of the players not making adjustments.

Two good righty at bats for Yoan

93/93/91/94 was what tv had first 4 pitches at
