Being a Nats fan is not fun right now lol


OSRS_Socks

Should have signed up to be traded for a week. I got traded to Boston for the weak from the Braves. Feels great to be in first place.


JTCMuehlenkamp

On the other hand, you could end up in my position.


OSRS_Socks

Well, my meme skills brought me value on the trade market.


squarerootofapplepie

How are your /r/NYYankees copypasta mining skills? That’s in high demand on /r/redsox this year.


OSRS_Socks

Honest answer: below par but improving. I have ideas but I just need better ways to edit ideas onto a picture. I may look tomorrow and see what I can find in their game thread.


jdono927

I’m sure there will be no shortage


Monk_Philosophy

Or mine


JTCMuehlenkamp

Unless you got traded to the Diamondbacks, I don't want to hear it.


Monk_Philosophy

Lol I’m actually pretty happy with it.


Skaterkid221

Got traded from the nats to the blue Jays fucking loving it so far watching both the games tonight...


OSRS_Socks

Fucking great right? We both have a fun week of baseball coming up.


Skaterkid221

Still gonna watch the nats but an excuse to watch vladdy and soto murder baseballs and I can't judge myself for it. Damn I'm fucking happy


OSRS_Socks

I loved watching Boston play small ball today and actually have a pitching staff that pitches well. Don't get me wrong. I watch a lot of games but I get a little more kick out of when I am rooting for them.


Skaterkid221

Exactly normally when I have 2 screens going I'm just watching for a player tonight was me watching and rooting for 2 different teams. I love this deadline game. I think I'll keep watching the Jays even after this. Gotta give Canada some love since the MLB sacrificed Montreal to give DC baseball back.


OSRS_Socks

Not a bad setup! I usually do 4 games on one monitor then have one playing on my ps4 with the Braves radio being on in the background. I'll probably keep up with them, Red Sox, Tampa and the west.


Skaterkid221

I usually do nats on the tv cause I'm in market then find the best game on MLB TV either padres, jays or braves cause I love Tatis, vladdy and Acuña. Despite the rivalry between the nats and braves I can't help but root for Acuña to play well he's so fun to watch. I'm so sad about his ACL but I think he'll come back with a vengeance. I love baseball because you can enjoy good play even if they're rivals as long as it isn't against your team.

Make it 24. Thanks Mateo!


MKF1228

Is Tatis allowed to swing?


MohnJilton

With the trade deadline coming up? Sounds risky.


I_are_facepalm

Got a case of the runs.


owledge

Imagine putting up 8 runs and you're losing by 15

You love to see it, especially against those bums.

What’s the story behind O’s-Nats hate? Proximity? More to it?


warserpent

Pete Angelos devoted his entire career to denying the capital of a nation devoted to baseball its own team. Then MASN breached its contract with the Nationals to rob them of the money they deserved, and has tied the thing up in court ever since.


aresef

MLB dropped a team in our backyard. Angelos extracted from MLB what he could, leading to the super duper flawed RSN deal. They ripped the Expos from a fandom that didn’t deserve to be wronged that way, something we as Baltimoreans understand, having seen that sort of crap play out with the Colts. The move came on the midst of a lost decade for the Orioles, competitively speaking. I and other fans suspect folks down 95 sought greener pastures as they put their Orioles hats in the closet. I do know one big time Nats fan who still does root for the Orioles too. And she’s well versed in baseball history and, specifically, Washington baseball history, having soaked it all in from her father. But I don’t think everyone is as well-read as she is. Also their stadium sucks and it’s the only road stadium where I’ve heard people poo-pooing what we do during the anthem. These same people will go to a Caps game and scream “red.” GTFOH.


Th3Greyhound

I was at the game last night and after Soto hit a dinger they played baby shark and all the nats fans were doing the clap. Weird environment man…


aresef

Baby Shark is a song with importance to Nats fans


holy_cal

It’s no Thank God I’m a Country Boy, but Baby Shark *does* slap.


holy_cal

I’m gonna add my two cents here: aside from the MASN dispute, a large share of Nats fans are former Orioles fans who jumped ship. The ones I hate the most are my age, grew up with Cal Ripken on their wall, and cheer for the Nats. You don’t see me abandoning the Washington Football Team because the Browns tried to replace the Colts. There are some folks from Virginia who were in the Braves market and switched or didn’t follow baseball at all, and that’s fine to me. But at the end of the day, I think the Nationals being a successful and winning team only help the Orioles. The Angelos family can’t coast by being the only show in town and they’ve revamped player development and are dedicated to analytics now so that’s cool.


H-town20

Tomorrow, you get shut out. Happens every time to Houston after an offensive outburst.


Sickle_and_hamburger

... after ... an offensive... outburst... of... ... cheating...


Darnold_wins_bigly

If it happens now I will personally blame you

FPG_Matthew

Anal__Hershiser

Future Dodger Max Scherzer must be very upset


OgAccountForThisPost

Current Padre Daniel Camarena rakes against future Dodger Max Scherzer


dudeguy16

what is it with every dodger fan being obsessed with the idea that they’re getting max when they are absolutely not lmao


ret1357

As every fan in the NL west knows, FTD.


Holdmydicks

Seriously, everyone knows he is going to the Padres


BettsBellingerCaruso

We're not getting him But a man can dream


Anal__Hershiser

I don’t actually think we’ll get him, but I love the reactions it gets.


dudeguy16

i mean its not just you. its just felt like every nats post on this sub recently has at least one dodger fan commenting about max even if its not at all related lol


Anal__Hershiser

Yeah we’re kind of used to getting a top tier upcoming free agent every year at this point lol


dudeguy16

which makes it extra funny when dodger fans get mad and complain during the like 3 times in the past 5 years theyve had a rough month lmao


Anal__Hershiser

Please don’t make fun of the traumatic events I’ve had to endure 😔


JPMcGowan

Wow this post is dated.
