The Washington Nationals faced a hot pitcher last night while having a cold pitcher on the mound. The Nats defense was terrible and the clutch hitting was even worse. The result was a 15-1 loss. That’s ok, the Nats can win the series today and take a happy flight to Colorado.

The Washington Nationals have got to shove here in Sacramento as the team has a golden opportunity with the weakest part of their schedule this season in the next six days. The Nats enter at a game under .500 and have to win to avoid another sell-off at the trade deadline that is just 16-games away.

Game #96 Nats try to even up this series!

The Washington Nationals suffered their 26ᵗʰ blown save last night, and this one was the dreaded blown save coupled with a loss. Manager Blake Butera wanted a lefty to face a lefty but none of that matters if that lefty pitcher isn’t good and that was the issue in the loss as Matt Krook missed his location, and the ball was hammered for the game-losing two-run homer.

The Washington Nationals have the New York Yankees in for the weekend. This will be the final series before the All-Star break. The Nats have to win at least one game to guarantee themselves a winning record before the All-Star break. The Nats haven’t accomplished that since 2019.

The Washington Nationals have Foster Griffin on the mound for this series finale against Houston. This will be Griffin’s final showcase before the All-Star break and is his final audition in case an All-Star spot opens up. Three spots actually opened yesterday, and Griffin was not named. That’s a snub when you consider his stats are certainly All-Star worthy.

Game #93 Nats go with the lefty Alvarez

The Washington Nationals had a short start of 2 1/3 innings on Sunday from Cade Cavalli — and that immediately stressed an over-worked bullpen. Besides Brad Lord taking on the long-man role, the Nats had two one-and-done appearances by both Eddy Yean and Cole Henry meaning they were called-up and pitched in the game and after the game were sent back to the minor leagues.

Game #92 The final week before the All-Star break

The Washington Nationals pivoted strategically to pitch Cade Cavalli yesterday and Miles Mikolas today. This all had to be done prior to their appeals for their suspensions during the fracas in Boston.

The plan going forward for the starting pitchers will be dependent on the suspensions. For Tuesday, Andrew Alvarez is scheduled, and Foster Griffin on Wednesday. It would be the Yankees series where Zack Littell is the only pitcher who we know will pitch in that series. We could see some minor leaguers called up if needed.
