Nationals have shuffled their rotation a little. Don't hold me to it; but if you're making plans to buy tickets in Atlanta when Nationals visit next weekend, I expect Nationals starters to line up this way... Sept 5-8:
Thurs - Strasburg
Fri - Corbin
Sat - Ross
Sun - Scherzer

Curious if this is getting same run nationally [or in Atlanta] as it is in DC.

Often hear Nationals have best record in MLB or "best team" in last 3 months. While that is literally true... record-wise, the Braves are still 5.5 games ahead of Nationals & have lost a whopping 1/2 game in standings to Nats since beginning of June.

So... rounding to nearest game... the Braves on pace win division by 5 games while Nationals on pace to have best MLB winning % in final 4 months at around .655.

All that to say... do you guys feel a little disrespected? I see it, but don't hear it... that Braves are damn good in 2019.

Yeah, I’m one of those people that think it’s where you finish. Hardly anyone will remember the runner-up. Unless you live in that specific city and that is your team.

I’d get a kick out of seeing Atlanta or Washington in the W.S.
Then, enjoy watching us win it. They’ll all jump on the bandwagon at that point.
