Open Gameday Thread, 7/23
Washington Nationals @ San Francisco Giants
There are statistically even match-ups, and then there are statistically even match-ups. Small sample sizes be damned, this is as close as they get.

Do well Kevin!
I’m predicting he goes 6 innings, 2 earned runs, 7 H’s, 6 K’s, 3 BB’s.
Just call me Xiefrank.

Less arm, more talk. Raisingcain is a GAMER.

It was actually that he would be a bench player after next week (i.e., after the non-waiver trade deadline).
So check back Aug 1 to see who’s starting.

Also it’s really refreshing to hear a parent say that. Everyone’s used to me saying “bleh babies” cos I don’t want ‘em, but when a parent can say, “yeah guys knock it off your baby is not cute” that makes me happy.
