 what do you got after watching these two play both teams have lineups that can beat up on anybody in baseball no pun intended right there for the ball but the second thing is I think both organizations understand that in order for them to get to the postseason they have to go through one another they know that both teams are going to be there in the end so it's important to each ball club to play well and kind of win that psyche battle over each other well after the brawl last night I love the emotion that's in this series now and this is the first series of many games 16 left with these guys don't going toe-to-toe but they're very talented I think Boston really has that edge now at the beginning of the year because your new managers you want to get off to a good start the weather hasn't cooperated with a lot of people throughout the Northeast this is going to be something that the Red Sox have to build upon because the Yankees last year one game away from the World Series and also getting Giancarlo Stanton that's huge for him now that being said be careful of Giancarlo Stanton because being in New York having the good first game and then it really has has been a mixed bag since the defensive play tonight watch how that evolves as well talented player but a lot of pressure the big triple last night that help with that defense way well what good news is he should be going back to more of a DH I would think Hicks is back now we'll see how they play that outfield with Aaron Boone but the Nationals look so great right now you buying or selling the Nationals I'm still buying them you have you have Scherzer and Strasburg up there they can pitch you out of slumps they've already had to do that early on in this season you have those two power arms that can beat any team in baseball they should be all right still waiting on Zimmerman to come up come alive at the back trade turner still lagging but I think they'll be just fine I think there's a division a lot tougher and it hit them in the mouth early I think the pressure is continuing to mount for the Nationals because they are a juggernaut when you think of the regular season they're so talented and they're very deep obviously they have the two studs at the top of the top of the rotation and Bryce Harper it's looming the free agency you wonder if that's gonna affect some of the things but they have to get into playoffs and do well because there's a lot of excuses being thrown by the manager way and they've changed the manager multiple times that's the problem that I have with the Nationals they have to step up and get it done it's not about the regular season it's about the playoffs for them yeah and you know it's funny you're so good in the regular season you wonder you know gotta be hard at some point all right let's go with 97 and get back to the playoffs and who doesn't want to see Max Scherzer in the playoffs and pitching the way he does course that's the guy that you want to see because Clayton Kershaw and Max Scherzer those are the those are the guys in the National League yeah they don't look great they got too much talent you figure they will be just fine and Daniel Murphy's out gotta have him back at some point coming back from micro fractures so hopefully he come back and be the hitter that he always is
