Braves have sent a scout out for Zach Wheeler start(s).
Mets asked for Christian Pache. Atlanta said no. Next was Kolby Allard. Atlanta said, not for a rental player. He can sign this winter without compensation.

I said Nats with a nice pitching performance yesterday. Phillies won, also.
Yep. Max Scherzer in his last NINE starts....(working backwards chronologically)
IP / ER / Ks
7 / 0 / 11
8 / 1 / 14
8 / 1 / 10
7 / 0 / 10
7 / 2 / 10
7 / 0 / 9
8 / 1 / 15
6 / 1 / 6
6 / 0 / 9
7-0 record (7 in a row)

In this crazy stretch, he's also broken his nose & had a baby [his wife did the hard part there ;)]

In yesterday's game... he registered 1 hit, 1 SB, & 11 Ks. According to a tweet I saw, Elias says he is only pitcher in modern era to record multiple games of at least 1 hit, 1 SB, & 10K's.

You guys get to see [fill in blank with your HOF guy in Braves uniform]... but watching Scherzer "compete" the way he does here every time he pitches (or rare pinch hit) is simply awesome. Love the guy! He cannot sustain what he's done in those 9 games [well maybe he can (y)] ...but advantage Nats when he's involved.
