To me Thor and Familia are keys here IF were getting them back by the end of July/beginning of Aug. Sandy will surely go for it for better or worse.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08674150694486256724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-592615130369356022.post-56923983575062027482017-07-01T11:26:15.508-04:002017-07-01T11:26:15.508-04:00Writing on Flexen Monday.Writing on Flexen Monday.Tom Brennanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01032383157195393857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-592615130369356022.post-36187099218205829472017-07-01T10:42:23.510-04:002017-07-01T10:42:23.510-04:00Can't root against my team--can't.

Sorry, not in my DNA.<br /><br />I'm fine with cutting ties with those not to be involved in the future...Duda, Granderson, Walker, Reyes, etc. In fact I'm looking forward to that. And I wouldn't mind sweetening the pot with acechhini or Flexen if it brings back a superiot talent. But I don't mind them upping their value with some production and some July victories for us.Hobiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11161607087964191500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-592615130369356022.post-4365983380426655052017-07-01T08:39:40.696-04:002017-07-01T08:39:40.696-04:00Nice picture of Terry Collins, Reese. Is that the ...Nice picture of Terry Collins, Reese. Is that the one on your dartboard?<br /><br />We won last night and trail the injured, slumping Nats (10 wins in last 23) and plunging Rockies by 9.5 games. Which is what the 1969 Mets trailed the seemingly invincible Cubs in 1969 5 weeks later than we are now.<br /><br /> I also heard that Familia will soon start a serious throwing program. Could he be our end-of-July "acquisition"? Could Thor be back mid-August? And could we sweep the Nats this coming week and somehow win at least 6 of the last 8 going into the break?<br /><br />If we don't do really well in the next 8, I sell then...probably. But I wait until at least the Nats series ends to set a plan in motion. And here's an idea - drill Murphy. Old school ball. Make him uncomfortable.Tom Brennanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01032383157195393857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-592615130369356022.post-90063645211599882962017-07-01T08:15:36.408-04:002017-07-01T08:15:36.408-04:00Reese -
