Helms reminds me of Boone in 1980, who waited 160 games and 9 2/3 innings before he got a big hit that year. Hopefully Helms will do it a bit sooner! :roll:

Cause it's 1-0 and you don't want to shred your bullpen and it's the 2nd fracking inning.

Jesus christ folks, it's MATT CHICO not Roger Clemens of 10 years ago

Eaton give up more than 2 runs every 3 innings, all year long. I don't want to HAVE to score 7 to have a chance.

And a potty arm, unfortunately.

Howard's good for a 2-run shot later, and Utley, Burrell, and Rollins should all drive in 1. So, we're really winning 5-1. Just not yet.

the bullpen is rested. there's two regular season games left and maybe a one-game playoff. i see both sides, but i really think a corner-two-out situation where iguchi could come up and tie it up would be a good one.

Jesus, Eaton c'mon.

In the second inning down one against MATT CHICO

Maybe in the 5th or even 4th - but it's the 2nd - and it's the nats...the nats aren't good

Zimmerman fouled off a ball he should have hit to Harry the K's

And Eaton is worse. Charlie has been too slow to yank Eaton on a number of occasions this year. Today would be a bad day for it to happen again.

I wonder if Adam Eaton cranks off in big piles of cash in a mansion somewhere during off-days
