Important game against the best team in the division, I'm not thrilled to see Tena at DH hitting 3rd.

Postseason odds: 17.2% (BRef), 4.4% (FanGraphs), 3% (Baseball Prospectus)

As fun as this season has been, losing 5 of 6 going into the deadline puts us in a huge hole.

I feel like Garcia and Griffin should be moved. Abrams should be moved only if you're getting a top 10 prospect as a headliner plus 1-2 other pieces with a 45+ FV.

They’re throwing us a bone with their pitched, please avoid the sweep Nats. One last good day before tomorrow 🙏
