Resting Pitchface E54 - Fiddler On The Roof Rabbi-Copter

The women's national baseball team won gold in the Pan Am Games! Guess some coverage would have been nice. Shrug. Emoji. On the homefront, Max is back, hopefully no longer trying to herd the rest of the dugout. Shockingly, we think Rendon deserves a contract extension. No one deserves those player weekend jerseys. Not even Southern Thunder. Episode 54: Fiddler on the Roof Rabbi-Copter

Resting Pitchface E53 - Lefty Relievers Below Replacement

We’re back after a life hiatus. Luckily women’s baseball didn’t take a hiatus, with a new European tournament and the fifth year of Baseball For All (go DC Force). If you missed Women in Baseball Week, Baseball Prospectus has a tag for that. Oh yeah, the Nats made some trade moves and our bench is the danciest, colored-glasses wearing-est, happiest place to be. Resting Pitchface still wants more pet trade data. We’ve identified a gap in the market. Episode 53: Lefty Relievers Below...

Resting Pitchface E52 - Where's The Amphibious Pitcher

There’s nothing wrong with Ohio; a couple Nats are going! Hope Tony eats a cannoli and no one gets hurt, there’s still a (1/2) season to play. And right now, there’s baseball in London and in New York a Toni Stone production, and in DC Adam Eaton is super bad at hot takes~ A Resting Pitchface hipster episode, bring your butterfly nets. Episode 52: Where’s The Amphibious Pitcher

Resting Pitchface E51 - Shawn Kelley Glove Fund

The optimal product of baseball should be fun baseball and the Nationals are making that a bit easier of late. (Vote Rendon.) We here at Tangents R Us are certainly having a better time, as are a number of Nats pitchers. (Vote Rendon.) This time we have some on-field reporters from Night Out, thoughts on language acquisition, big dogs, All Star Game fashion (have we mentioned Vote Rendon?), and more tangents. Vote Rendon! Episode 51: Shawn Kelley Glove Fund

Resting Pitchface E50: Please Unsnap Dusty

Resting Pitchface returns from the Eastern Women’s Baseball Conference Diamond Classic with some wisdom the Nationals could use: Lean in with your boobs. Not your head, Victor Robles. If the season is going to be what it keeps on being, the Nats should at least make sure the kids (Soto, Robles, et al) are alright. And with the season being what it is, we’ll keep on doing what we do, which in this instance is casting the team as Avengers, because why not. Episode 50: Please Unsnap Dusty

Resting Pitchface E49: Rick Ankiel's Finishing School

Resting Pitchface is a niche bookstore this week! The Nats have us in a weird place emotionally. They might be the squibs of MLB but there are at least a few smart cats giving us something to be happy about. The rest is a repetitive series of bad decisions, institutional exploitation, and, possibly, a finishing school. Bees?!? Episode 49: Rick Ankiel’s Finishing School

Resting Pitchface E48: Seal Tank Romeo & Juliet

If we had our way, we’d be talking about “wiggling entertainingly everywhere” for the whole episode. Being Nats fans, however, we can’t not discuss the bullpen. From Yipsitis to stolen eyewear, Resting Pitchface runs the gamut on the theme. Feat. Heel turns, power tools, and RPFP greatest hits. Episode 48: Seal Tank Romeo & Juliet

Resting PitchfaceE47: Shirtless & Slightly Douchey

Look, Bryce is gone. We have some feelings and opinions about that. It’s Resting Pitchface, we have feelings and opinions about everything. For example, how many Matts are on the Nats (spoilers: a lot), whether any of these new rule changes are going to fix anything (spoilers: they aren’t) , and should we resign DSpan (spoilers: we should). We spend as much time talking about Bryce Harper as we do taking about goats. We’ll leave it to you to determine what’s the best use of our time...

Resting PitchfaceE46 - And We're Back To That

Spring training is upon us and Resting Pitchface is back to talk about all the free agents yet to find their forever homes. Free agents are basically stray cats, right? We also say our goodbyes to Frank Robinson, discuss potential tight races in the NL, and make some space for more Grammar Time with Resting Pitchface. We didn’t mean to call Opportunity Curiosity, we swear we know better. Episode 46 - And We’re Back To That

Resting PitchfaceE45 - All Glory to the Shoulder Toad

Resting Pitchface is back even though baseball still isn’t. We discuss the offseason moves the Nats (and a few select others) have made and what that could mean for 2019. As always with us, there’s more: telepathy as a performance enhancing drug, what can be done to protect Wilson Ramos’ hamstrings, and who's who of the /checks notes, Reds?, just to name a few. Don't worry, the elephant in the Nats' outfield gets some coverage too. Episode 45 - All Glory to the Shoulder Toad
