That was some postseason for the Nats. Congrats, LM. I was rooting hard for you guys (both because I like the Nats and I hate the Astros). Juan Soto is the best.
And it's pretty incredible to think that the Nats won the World Series with basically a 6-men pitching staff in the postseason.
That franchise kind of deserves it (and to be clear, most franchises - Yankees included - are pretty awful, but the Astros took it to a whole new level). It feels as though the Astros will be a notch weaker in the future, but they still have a lot of good young talent and some dark magic that makes 38-old pitchers add like 4 miles to their fastball, so who the hell knows.
Also, for all their smarts, how the hell do you keep a warm Gerrit Cole in the bullpen and lose a game 7 because of your less than ideal bullpen? I thought we had learned with the Zack Britton fiasco a few years ago?
Should be an interesting offseason.
