Nats Talk on the Go

Craig is once again joined by Ryan Sullivan of NatsGM.com! The guys discuss the managerial exploits of Davey Martinez, the legacy of Jayson Werth, and preview next week's All Star Game at Nats Park!

Tonight I am joined by very special guest of the Pod, Ryan Sullivan of Nats GM dot com (the Baron of all things baseball). We touch on flavor of the month Juan Soto, Jeremy Hellickson's solid start, as well as future projections on Severino and Michael A. Eventually shenanigans occur and we discuss the NFL, 100 Top Athletes, and play a new game! Thanks for listening!

In this episode, Craig dissects the delirious effects of the Dbacks bullpen carts, unexpected role players, and the Legend of Juan Soto. Also featuring, your few questions!

It's been a rough go, but the Nats started to turn it around with the Mets series. The pitching is good enough, the health is an issue, and the gang gets back together.

In the latest edition of NTOTG Craig discusses Overrated Harper and Mighty Mouse's Majesty (above the fruited plain). The dreaded AJ 'Not Clean' Cole is debated and dismissed. And all your questions are finally answered!

We're back in action with a brand new format to start the 2018 campaign! In this episode Craig goes solo, covering a wide range of topics from Spring Training Performance, lineup questions, and your quizzical questions! Thank you for sticking with us.

The season is almost done, and the Nats have some of the best players in baseball. We talk about the great year and do some early postseason predictions. And as always, listener questions!

Craig is joined by special guest host Frank (@Nationals101) for this post-clinch celebration! We look back on the monumental nature of four division titles in six years, look at the current status of the organization, and look ahead at the potential playoff opponents and roster construction. As always, we finish up with your fantastic questions!

Bryce Harper went down with a nasty injury over the weekend, but the Nats are still really, very good. We talk about all the happy things along with some great listener questions!

The Nats acquire IF/OF Howie Kendrick and RP Brandon Kintzler before the deadline as they prepare for the stretch run. Also, the Dodgers did some stuff.

The Nats acquired Sean Doolitle and Ryan Madson to shore up their struggling bullpen as the injuries continue to pile up. Also, the team is still pretty darn good.

We prepare for the All-Star Break by talking about the huge success of the offense, the struggles of the bullpen, and we answer a boatload of listener questions.

In this week's very special episode, Craig is joined by Ryan Sullivan of NatsGM.com for nearly 90 minutes of baseball talk and questions.

The Nationals offense is on fire, and the bullpen is stabilizing but not yet stable. Oh, and the Nats won every game for a week straight!

The Nats bullpen is a concern, but their offense is on fire. We talk about the state of the team and answer many listener questions.

We spent an episode talking about Opening Day and taking listener questions. It was a blast! Also, this episode title would make sense if you listened to the live show (live.natstalkonthego.com).

The spring is nearly over, and the season is nearly here! We talk about the closer battle, some other positional changes, and answer some great listener questions just days away from Opening Day 2017!

Pitchers and catchers have once again reported as the symbolic beginning of baseball begins once again. We discuss the addition of Adam Lind, our concerns about bench and bullpen depth, and answer a ton of great listener questions.

Danny Espinosa is headed home, but our listeners shared some great baseball-related wishes for 2017. Plus, a happy holidays wish for you and yours.

The Nationals got their centerfielder in Adam Eaton, but it was for a steep prospect price. We chat about Winter Meetings and other offseason goings on. And stay tuned through the outro music for a special treat!

Don't let the title fool you. We talked about a lot of really fun stuff. The great World Series, some early Nationals offsesason moves, and a ton of great listener questions!

The Nationals season didn't end the way we wanted it to, but the series sure was exciting. We wrap up the Nats playoff run and talk about offseason plans.

The Nationals lost Game 4, but there's a lot to look forward to in Game 5 as the Nats try to exorcise their playoff demons.

The Nationals are one win away from winning their first NLDS. Jayson Werth and Ryan Zimmerman are the offensive sparks in support of another elite outing from the bullpen.

The Nationals earned their first postseason win since 2012 fueled by surprise hero Jose Lobaton. Also, Jayson Werth was great, and Dusty Baker's managing was masterful.

The Nationals may have lost Game 1 of the 2016 NLDS to the Dodgers, but despite being down early in the series, we don't think it's all bad! On Scherzer's outing, Zimmerman's resurgence, and looking forward to Game 2.

The Nationals have made their third NLDS in five years. We make our predictions for the series, including rosters and series results.

We remember the life and career of Jose Fernandez at the top of the show before returning to our regular format. We discuss the Wilson Ramos injury, pitching rotations, and more.

Daniel Murphy has a mystery leg injury that's concerning Dusty Baker, Stephen Strasburg threw a baseball, and we talk post-season pitching. We also answer several dozen great listener questions.

The Nats took care of business against the Mets this week, Stephen Strasburg isn't dead, and Tanner Roark is so, so good. All that, plus many amazing listener questions.

The Nationals 2016 season has been great, and we spend a bunch of time talking about that. (And temporarily losing it as Stephen Strasburg left the game.) We also look ahead to postseason baseball. [NL East clinch predictions: Joe - September 17; Craig - September 19]

Marc Rzepczynski has a great nickname, and now he's in the Nats bullpen. September call-ups are here, and Craig has some stuff to say about pace-of-play. We also answer a bunch of listener questions!

The Nationals are having their way with the NL East, Reynaldo Lopez and Trea Turner are the real deal, but Stephen Strasburg has been struggling.

The Nationals acquired Mark Melancon in one of the most impactful in-season trades in team history. That, plus Michael A. Taylor's demotion, and Trea Turner is the Nats' centerfielder of the future.

We start the show with trade deadline talk and how the Nationals might be able to make an impact before the deadline. Then we discuss Aroldis Chapman heading to the North Side of Chicago, Murphy and Ramos, and Trea Turner's significant early impact. We hear about your first ever baseball jerseys and answer you questions, too.

This week, we talk about how great the Home Run Derby was and how 'meh' the All-Star Game was (and always is.) We also revisit our first-half predictions and see what we got right and what we got oh so wrong. Finally, you tell us how you occupy yourself during the break and answer some listener questions!

The Nationals have landed four players in the All-Star Game. Lucas Giolito is still with the team, while Michael A. Taylor was sent down. And we both got pretty heated about the thought of shaming Nats fans.

Lucas Giolito has made his MLB debut for the Nationals, but it didn't go quite as planned. Trea Turner has been taking reps in CF, and Wilson Ramos has been insanely good. All that, plus Stephen Srasburg's injury and what to do with Gio Gonzalez.

Stephen Strasburg was scratched at the last minute when was scheduled to go up against Clayton Kershaw. We talk about that sadness, the Nats fledgling bullpen, and the numerous Mets injuries. Also, the post-10 pm game time madness has to stop.

It was a fun week for the Washington Nationals, who won a series with the MLB-best Cubs and got to see Jayson Werth put together two amazing post-game interviews. We also talk about a curious ninth inning decision and the great Too Many Nats video.

We have the brilliant Ryan Sullivan from NatsGM.com on the show this week to talk about the 2016 MLB Draft, including who the Nats might take in the first round. We also talk about the Nats minor league depth and he joins us to take some listener questions! We celebrate Strasmas at the top of the show, and we add a blooper to the end of it!

Bryce Harper got plunked in the knee in the first game of the Phillies series. We talk about what could have happened that didn't, and what the Nats look like going forward without Harper. We also talk about Dusty Baker's great return to baseball and Daniel Murphy's freakishly good hitting. And, of course, listener questions!

We had two Stephen Strasburg vs. Matt Harvey matchups since our last recording, and both of them turned out pretty well for the Nationals' starter. We talk about that at length, as well as some talk of the large Mets crowd at Nats Park this week. We also have a long list of listener questions, so many, in fact, that we couldn't even get to all of them!

We had a super-sized episode of the podcast this week. We talked about Max Scherzer's 20 strikeout performance and our top five favorite Nats moments. (Spoiler alert: the 20 K performance is on both of our lists.) We also talk about the healing power of Trea Turner, Bryce Harper's adjustments, and the parity among the top four NL East teams so far. All that plus, of course, listener questions!

Stephen Strasburg signed a seven-year extension, and we, quite simply, couldn't stop talking about it. We talk about the details and implications of the signing, and what happened with Bryce Harper with his weird ejection on Monday. All that and more, plus listener questions.

The Nats are in the midst of their most trying road trip of the season, and it's gone much better than most expected. We talk about all that's gone well there, plus we talk about Jonathan Papelbon having trouble missing bats in his age 35 season and Ben Revere's impending return. All that, plus listener questions!

This week, we spoke with Jake Russell, who wrote "100 Things Nationals Fans Should Know & Do Before They Die". We talked about our favorite and his favorite parts of the book and the 2016 season. We also spoke at length about instant replay and, of course, took listener questions!

Bryce Harper and Stephen Strasburg have been the Nats stars so far through the beginning of a strong start. We talk about just how good, plus the construction of the lineup and a boatload of listener questions!

The Nationals season is underway, and the team has their first injury. Michael A. Taylor takes over in the outfield, the starting rotation is constructed... kinda, and man yells indiscriminately about sliding into second base. Also, we issue many thank-yous to all of our amazing Special OPS members!

This was a huge week for the podcast. We launched our supporters club, NTOTG Special OPS, and a merchandise store. Plus, spring training is almost over, so we had baseball to discuss. We talked Michael A. Taylor's success, Brendan Ryan's chances, and made our bold 2016 predictions. Join us for this huge episode of the show!

Nationals Park will be getting a new name, Michael A. Taylor can't stop hitting, and MASN is still... being MASN. Lots of topics to discuss, and lots of listener questions to debate, including the best Easter candy.
