if you would have bet on them every game it would have taken brass balls, at times, early on anyway, this team looked 100% AAA, not major league
Just becareful on the nats tonight. Teams traveling cross country with or without a day of rest have not fared well on the opposite coast for game one. I have been betting against the traveling team blindly this season on the ML and RL. These have been hitting at a very high percentage the last 2-3 months. Just a heads up. Even teams traveling through 2 time zones have struggled game one. Not sure why these traveling teams have done so bad game one. Even if the home team had to do the traveling while the road team was on the correct coast I would fade the home team then. This is not a automatic play on either the road or home team. Just the team that has the long haul.
I still think Bowden should have cashed in Cordero...
Also...
Just think where this club would be right now had Bowden traded Soriano last July...and received top prospects in return, there were several clubs interested...that was a mistake on his part as well. There was no way the Nationals were going to come close on that money.
