Detwiler just threw his best game of the season tonight, incidentally. Maybe HE'S the one who will take the award in August.
8-6 record will do that. The Nats just don't score runs when he is pitching. He hasn't pitched a game yet this season in which he pitched so poorly that he gave his team virtually no chance to win. I think his worst outing was the one in May in which he gave up 4 runs in 5 or 6 innings.
When the playoffs start we want Jordan as our #1; Gio our #2 and either Jackson or Detwiler as our #3.
Detwiler is really comming on this past month; he may be our go to guy when Strasburg sits come September.
What an embarrassment of riches on a team that 2 years ago had Lannan and Livo and 3 guys named Moe
One of those guys was just Livan with a fake goatee.
