Who?  Cishek can't literally pitch every day.

Anyone. There are 7 other pitchers out there. Literally any other reliever would be better.

Out of the inning on a wild pitch?

Well, that's one way to get out of a jam.  Edwards throws a wild pitch; Caratini fetches it and they've got Dozier in a rundown.  Dozier runs several feet outside the baseline to dodge Edwards' tag and is called out, but runs home and claps as if he has scored a run.  No, he's out.

The front office just has to trade Edwards. Joe isn't going to stop using him, so Theo and Jed have to take away the temptation.

Nationals have brought in their own version of Edwards in the 8th. Barraclough is the same kind of frustrating to his team's fans.

Madden will keep using him.  It's up to GM to get rid of him

There's no trade value.  It would have to be an outright release.

Edwards has pitched 6 innings on the season and we're certain he has to be traded.

Schwarber ends a 13-pitch at-bat with a homer that just clears the wall.  Wow!

Schwarber with a 2 run homer on the 13th pitch of his AB. Nice job.

Barraclough lives up to my Edwards comparison.

Edwards has been terrible in high leverage situations his entire career, and Joe won't stop using him. This isn't just about 6 innings.

KB smacks one just a little further than Schwarber's for another homer.

Nice job by the offense to add on.
