The Detroit Lions needed somebody to settle their suddenly uncertain situation at center. Juice Scruggs may have done exactly that. Scruggs started at center in Detroit’s 17-13 preseason victory over the Washington Commanders and followed weeks of competition with perhaps…
With just one remaining preseason game left to play, coaches are going to have some tough decisions to make as to who will round out the Commanders 53-man roster. There are still some very tight position battles going on, including QB3, WR5-6, RB3-4, center, safety and the final cornerbacks. There may be plenty to glean […]
One of the great questions for the Nats going into the season was "what the hell are they going to do at catcher?" Keibert Ruiz had been terrible for several years and the pipeline for catcher was as weak as any position for the Nats, with newly acquired Harry Ford being the next hope that was unlikely to pay off. But something funny happened this year. Keibert got good (well at the plate) and the pipeline started filling up. On Keibert, arguably this version looks a LOT like what ...

The Detroit Lions need someone to reliably hold down the center position until starter Cade Mays recovers from his wrist injury.

Despite some promising play from Seth McLaughlin in training camp, the competition may […]
The Detroit Lions got their first win of the 2026 preseason, defeating the Washington Commanders at Ford Field, 17-13. Detroit’s defense was particularly impressive, limiting Washington’s offense to just 35 rushing yards across 17 carries, and surrendering just nine first downs over 45 plays run on offense. As we’ll do every week throughout the season […]
The Florida Panthers selected center Ryder Cali in the second round (48th overall) of the 2026 NHL Draft, using the pick they acquired from the Washington Capitals for Justin Sourdif. Cali has a very interesting hockey background as his mother, a Canadian, was a professional player toiling in Switzerland who continued to suit up during the first trimester of her pregnancy with Ryder. When he was three, his family moved from Switzerland to the Cayman Islands, where Cali started off pl...
Just a few months back in March, San Diego Padres’ Jackson Merrill had a highlight performance against the Detroit Tigers, as he leaped at the wall in deep center field to rob Kevin McGonigle of a 403-foot would-be home run. Then, it became a casual defensive play for him, recording 4 such moves. But on […] The post 27YO Nationals’ Star Becomes Real-Life Spiderman to Produce the Highlight of the Year in MLB appeared first on EssentiallySports .

Washington traveled to Detroit for a preseason clash against the Lions at noon on Saturday.

This Nationals team is in complete free fall. There is no other way to put it. However, they need to start picking up some wins or else the beginning of the season will be completely forgotten. Today, they will look to avoid yet another divisional sweep in Miami. The Nats lineup is honestly a shame […]
If you look at any standouts, stock-ups, or winners from the Detroit Lions’ preseason win over the Washington Commanders, that list is almost certainly going to have rookie defensive tackle Skyler Gill-Howard. While he didn’t show up much on the box score—one tackle for loss and one QB hit—he was clearly disruptive to anyone who […]

Saturday night’s content between the Nationals and the Miami Marlins was, by just about all accounts, a very forgettable night of baseball. Starter Jake Irvin tossed an up-and-down 6.0 innings of 4-run ball, and the Nats only put up 2 runs en route to a 4-2 loss to drop 9 games below .500. However, one […]
