Click to Read an Important Member Update Regarding Our Comment System
We recently upgraded our comment system to improve reliability, performance, and long-term control, and we’re currently running both systems during the transition. This shift moves us away from an external service to a system we run and control directly—meaning we own the content and can continue improving it over time. We’ve also reduced the comment refresh delay from about 30 seconds to 10 seconds, making it much closer to real-time.
We understand there have been frustrations and increased feedback, and we’re actively working to improve things. What we ask is simple: use the system and give it a fair shot. If you run into issues, please submit them through the support form so we can track and fix them properly. Repeated complaints without details don’t help us solve problems—we appreciate your patience as we continue refining the experience.
If you’d like a full side-by-side comparison of the platforms and the reasons behind this decision, please refer to the chart below. This change is being made with the long-term benefit of the entire community in mind.

This success by Kyle Schwarber with 15 home runs in 17 days is a result of hard work and sticking with the process. When Daniel Murphy was with the Mets, he also went through a transformation with the same hitting coach, Kevin Long, who has been working with Schwarber since mid-January. Murphy and Long both moved to the Washington Nationals, and Murphy’s success gave confidence to other players to put their trust in Long. Continue reading →
What looked like a blowout turned into a nail-biter in the top of the 8th inning after the score went to 5-4 in favor of the Washington Nationals then closer Brad Hand came in and turned the lights off in a 5-out save. It was Ryan Zimmerman who entered in a double-switch and he put the game away with a 3-run homer in the bottom of the 8th for the final scoring at 8-4. The Nats hit five home runs in this game.
We have spoken many times about getting great starts from the Washington Nationals pitching staff by putting zeroes on the board, and the offense scoring at least five runs of support to notch a win. Mission accomplished. The Nats won on that formula and when the Nats score 5 or more runs in a game this season, they are an incredible 24-6 for a .800 winning percentage. Also, to drill down further, the Nats are 17-7 when they hit multiple home runs in a game, but you can see that is not always as guaranteed as you would think to turn into wins. It worked on this night to beat the Mets and get the Nats within 3.0 games of 1st place. Continue reading →
Here we are again with another Washington Nationals game against the Mets. This is actually a make-up game from the Covid postponements from the first series of the season. Both teams are also depleted by injuries in their starting rotations and using spot starters in this game. Continue reading →

MIAMI, FL | Trea Turner delivers the game winning 2-run home run; Photo by Sol Tucker for TalkNats
With this win today for a split in this four game series in Miami, the Washington Nationals head back to D.C. on a happy flight. This 5-1 win did not come easy as the game was tied 1-1 in the sixth inning when Trea Turner delivered with a two-run opposite field 400 foot homer to back Max Scherzer for the win. Josh Bell added two insurance runs with a 419 foot oppo blast for the final scoring of this game. Continue reading →
After two losses in a row, Max Scherzer enters today’s game for the Washington Nationals in his familiar role as the stopper. We saw back-to-back uninspiring starts by both Jon Lester and Patrick Corbin. We saw two middle of the order Nats’ batters chase pitches and seemingly thwart the opposing pitchers’ plan of giving up walks. It was describing by more than a few as “frustrating” losses. These are the games the Washington Nationals have to win. Continue reading →
The Washington Nationals were on a roll and hit one of those bumps in the road yesterday. The great teams bounce right back, and the Nats will have a chance to do that in this afternoon’s contest with the Marlins. Continue reading →
The Washington Nationals have only been above .500 this season for one game, and that was back on Opening Day when Juan Soto hit that walk-off single. This team has a chance to get back above .500 tonight in Miami, albeit not an easy task. Continue reading →
The Washington Nationals took care of business as Joe Ross threw 7.0 innings of shutout baseball in a game they won 7-3 and were powered by two home runs and 4 RBIs from Kyle Schwarber. In the NL East, the Nats moved to within 3 ½ games of 1st place and widened their lead over the teams behind them. Continue reading →
The Washington Nationals just finished up some emotional games with key wins over the Phillies and Mets and must keep the pressure on with this four game series in Miami. The Nats have won four in a row, and now the Nats pitchers will get to pitch in a pitcher’s park in Miami for the first time this season. Continue reading →
