The Nats are playing tonight. Each previous trip to the playoffs has ended in a different, but equally painful kick in the balls and I fully expect the same this time. Scherzer is pitching the one-game play-in game even though he has not been as good as Strasburg over the past few months (he was also injured for a few weeks) on top of the fact that Strasburg was *nails* in Game 4 of the NLDS against the Cubs and has a better overall playoff record.
With the Nats, you have to hold two competing things in your mind at the same time - the team is fun to watch during the regular season and will shit the bed like Kendall at Tern Haven once the playoffs start. I hope this time is different but I do not think it will be.
