LEADING OFF (2:35)
- Back for the first time in a while, Dan and John have a bunch to catch up on pertaining to the Nationals. The dog days of Summer are in full swing and the Nats are fighting for their lives in the 2018 season. Trying to identify the one main reason the Nats are where they are, Dan looks at the individual inconsistencies this year from the Nats. John talks big picture and notes that when the Nats pitched well they didn’t hit and when they hit well the pitching just wasn’t there.
- Dan also looks back at the somewhat surprising trades made by the Nats in July and August. The guys remember the work as a whole from Daniel Murphy and Matt Adams during their time in a Nationals uniform.
FAN QUESTIONS (25:55)
- The mailbox is open and the guys take a bevy of questions from fans. Topics include whether or not trade season is over, Juan Soto’s ceiling in 2019, what Dan does with his Gatorade-soaked suits and of course, Frank the Ice Cream scooper in Philadelphia.
ON DECK – (45:55)
- With less than 30 games remaining in the season, Dan and John talk about what to watch for down the stretch. Dan focuses on the type of baseball that the Nats will play and how that could directly impact the team heading into 2019. John talks about the September call ups that are right around the corner and some exciting players we might see in the season’s final month.
