  • I'm just going to pretend 2014 was his walk year and he was on some other team this year: Jordan Zimmermann (-5.8%) lets in 2 runs over 6 IP, with one walk and one K, which is OF COURSE not good enough for the Nats to win. Enjoy your last loss, loser. You deserved a better finale, and we're going to miss you.
  • Your Nats' WPA leader: Ian Desmond (+7.1%) is 0-2 with a pair of walks and no LOB, thereby leading the Nats in offensive production.
