    We have to see how far Dusty takes the Nationals to the playoffs this year and whether he makes playoffs next year.

    i know i been accused of being a name dropper. But at one time my brother was friends with chad foxx. He won a ring when the marlins won the world series on the team with beckett. He blew his arm up closing for the cubs under dusty. He stated dusty was the best manager he ever played for. They gave prints out to family members of the players. My brother who is a fireman in hpd traveled with them thru the nlcs and world series. he got me the imprint of mazerowski jumping on home plate

    Well, what do you know. Dusty Baker ruined another young pitching arm.

    RIP Stephen Strasburg.

    Wrong again. Davey Johnson's hands were tied by the front office.

    Do you think you're going against some kind of rookie here, boy?

    I suggest you watch your step.

    I watched the Steve Bartman 30 for 30 yesterday and Dusty the Dumbfukk blamed him for the loss in game 6.

    After watching that and saw the worthless human beings, otherwise known as Cub fans, I hope the Cubs never win shit.

    Death threats against that kid. Fukk the Cubs

    Sorry for the rambling in a thread about Nationals but that seeing that reminded me of how fukking dumb Dusty truly is

    Dusty is a big dummy.

    He blew the World Series for the Giants in 2002.

    He blew a chance for the Cubs going to the World Series in 2003.

    He got completely out managed by Bruce Bochy in 2012, after being up 2-0.

    And I'm sure there were others.

    He might be a nice enough guy, and his teams get there on sheer talent alone in the regular season, but every postseason you can always rely on Dusty to somehow screw up.

    Dusty Baker and playoff success don't mix well. It's like water and oil.

    that's total bullshit. If brandon phillips hustles out of the box the reds sweep the giants. He was lolly gagging and got thrown out at second.

    Whose job is it to make sure the players hustle?

    Exactly.

    I'm glad we're on the same page here, Chico.

    What were the Nationals thinking hiring this guy?

    He's lost nine straight decisive games.


    Dusty Baker.

    unfortunately for Nats fans, it was either Dusty Baker or Bud Black...not much difference between the two if you ask me...I was never really a Matt Williams fan either...if it were up to me, I would have coaxed Joe Torre or Tony LaRussa out of retirement and given them the keys to the kingdom...two of the all-time greats with multiple World series championships...they both would have been chompin' at the bit to manage a team that is loaded with talent, pitching, and hitting like the Nats...and they know how to handle all of the superstar egos and how to push the right buttons...it's just a damn shame the Nats choked again...all you need to know is 1 for 10 with runners in scoring position...that is not to going to get it done regardless of who's managing.

    Nothing to see here. Baker's nats were +150 to win series. They lost like they were supposed to. Nats hitters never got any clutch hits.

    Cant believe Daniel Murphy popped up when they needed him most,he was meant to be the guy that would get them over the hump.

    Just says it all about the Nationals.

    Doesn't say anything about the Nationals. In a game where 3 hits out of 10 is considered excellent, the odds were against him. More so against the best pitcher in baseball with an ERA of 1.69. The odds were insanely against him to begin with, hell I would have been surprised had he come through with a single.

    Wow.

    Looking back on this thread, I can't believe people had the nerve to question me.

    What were some of these dummies thinking?

    Guys, don't make that mistake again.
