Julio Teheran is throwing a no hitter and has struck out 10

Fantastic start by Tehran today. This is why we need to keep him imo. He has the potential to be an ace, but he is realistically a solid 3rd starter in a rotation. With the emergence of Newcomb and Folty, he can settle into that role. A rotation of Folty, Newcomb, Tehran, Soroka, and McCarthy/Sanchez/ Allard (eventually) looks pretty formidable and can win a playoff series.

It looks like Julio Teheran bummed his ankle while throwing a pitch and had to be removed. I hope he's not hurt too bad.

The Atlanta Braves lead the Nationals by 3 1/2 games in the National League East. The Nationals have to play the Yankees in New York tomorrow in a make up game and there's a great chance that the Braves will lead the NL East by 4 1/2 games tomorrow.

Great start by Julio ... sorry to say he still makes me nervous with his (so-far this season inconsistency).
This mornings AJC stated Suzuki is OK, nothing serious, that's good news !!
Yesterday, again the variables work in our favor, Suzuki (who I think is the better hitter) goes down and Flowers comes in and gets the tw0-run dinger to seal the deal.
You know the Nats are going to make a run sooner or later, so let's keep padding the lead !!

I really like both our catchers, the way they handle themselves and the way they play the game.
I just think Suzuki is the more consistent better contact hitter ...
I was waiting to see if there was going to be any retribution on Lopez yesterday, the play was accidental but Lopez kinda acted aloof about it ... I guess I'm glad we took the high road.

I'm glad the Braves didn't retaliate because we don't need any player suspensions;)
