All right. A few more Nats calls. What do you think of the firings yesterday? Mike Rizzo gone. Davy Martinez gone. De Bartolo is going to take over as the interim GM. He had been on the staff working for Mike Rizzo for a while now. Apparently more data-driven,

Mike DeBardo is, smart, thoughtful. The learner said in their statement, we're fortunate to have him as

part of our organization. Remember, the Nats have the number one overall pick in the MLB draft a week from now.

So the timing doesn't seem great, but they moved on from Mike Rizzo now anyway.

And the manager replacement, at least an interim manager replacement, will be named sometime today.

The Nats not back in action until tomorrow night in St. Louis.

So what did you think of the firings?

Are you okay with it?

Are you disgusted by it?

And who do you blame for all of this?

It's been a rough six years since, you know, the eight-year run of five playoff seasons of,

you know, during that eight-year run, all eight seasons above 500, even in the three years,

they didn't get to the postseason. They were 86 and 76, 83 and 79, 82, and 80. I mean,

attendance, you know, over two and a half million for almost all of those years, and culminating

in that incredible memorable October of 2019. But since then, one of the worst teams in baseball with, by the way,

you know, an attendance mark that just looks paltry compared to what it was when they were

competing for play in October. So who do you blame for all of this? What's your reaction to it?

301-230980. We had Mark Zuckerman

on the show last hour. He was excellent. And Chelsea Janes will join us at 1130. I am going to get to

some of the other things that happened over the weekend, including the Wizards trade for Cam Whitmore.

I can't believe how many of you believe that that trade is going to put Washington into the postseason next year.

But we will talk about that a little bit later on in the show.
