The other day it was announced that the Nationals were promoting Jackson Kent to Triple-A. With this news happening, I wanted to talk about Kent because he is a fascinating and under-discussed prospect. You can argue that Kent is the Nats best healthy pitching prospect, though I would probably put him second behind Miguel Sime […]

The Atlanta Braves and the Washington Nationals are facing on in a battle of MLB’s top two scoring offenses. It is highly likely that no one truly predicted that these two teams would have scored the most runs this far into the season. The biggest difference between these two teams is that the Braves have […]
The Nats offense just could not get going yesterday, which was a rare occurrence. That led to a 2-1 loss against the Mets, with the Nats settling for a split of the four game series. Now the boys head to Atlanta to face a Braves team that has been baseball’s best this season. The Nats […]
The Wizards completed a successful tank and have the first overall pick in the draft, which likely has the league fuming, showing that tanking works.
In a matchup of the top two offenses so far in MLB this season, the Atlanta Braves will be taking on the Washington Nationals. The Nationals have continued their strong offensive showing leading MLB in runs and doubles while being fourth in OPS. The Braves are right behind them scoring the second most runs while […]
The Atlanta Braves are rolling. After the win yesterday against the Marlins, they now hold sole possession of the best run differential in MLB. They also have the most wins while reaching thirty-five wins the fastest they have in a season since their rebuild ended in 2018. Today starts a new series with a Washington […]
With the bats rolling and one of their better starters in Cade Cavalli on the mound, the Nats had a prime opportunity to take 3 out of 4 from the Mets and clear the .500 mark the deepest into a season they have since 2021. Unfortunately, the Mets arms shut down the Nats lineup, allowing […]
Adam Peters selected five players in the 2025 NFL draft. Commanders selections were lower in each round as a byproduct of the previous season’s trip to the NFC championship game. Washington’s general manager came away with quality despite that fact, adding players capable of making an instant impact. That happened well beyond No. 29 overall pick Josh Conerly Jr., an offensive tackle […]
The Wizards may be lining themselves up to select a major sleeper in the upcoming NBA Draft.
The Nationals’ farm system has been in the limelight for the past two months, with plenty of lower-level talent already emerging as legitimate prospects. For a franchise that continues to look toward the future, the recent developments have been nothing short of incredibly encouraging. With all of the hype surrounding prospects still in the early […]

Meet the Mets Thanks mostly to David Peterson and the bullpen, the Mets finished their series against the Nationals with a 2-1 win. Bo Bichette’s two-run single with the bases loaded in the third provided all of the Mets’ offense, but the proved to be enough. And the Mets wake up this morning in fourth […]

These Nats just continue to score runs in bunches. Last night, they put 8 on the board in a comfortable win over the Mets. Offensive performances like the one from last night just seem to be par for the course right now. Hopefully they can keep it up with a chance to get over .500 […]
The Wizards may have just received a prime opportunity to enter the Giannis Antetokounmpo sweepstakes.

The idea of the Wizards preferring Cameron Boozer in the 2026 NBA Draft may not be as far-fetched as it seems.
Meet the Mets Zach Thornton’s major league debut didn’t go as well as hoped when he put the Mets in a hole early. The team did attempt to come back, led by two Juan Soto home runs, but the bullpen put the game out of reach and the Mets dropped their second straight to Washington. […]
The 2026 NBA Draft Combine was held from May 10-17 in Chicago with the Washington Wizards being the center of attention. Obviously, when Washington has the No. 1 pick, that is to be expected. However, in the last week, we have heard rumblings of the Utah Jazz looking to trade up to No. 1. The […]
The Mets continued the youth movement tonight, giving another young player their major league debut. However, the highest scoring team in baseball continued to score a lot of runs and the Mets’ bullpen couldn’t keep the club in the game. The Nationals beat the Mets 8-4, and while there were some valiant attempts at comebacks—mostly […]
After an emotional win last night, the Nats evened the series with the Mets and got within a game of .500 again. Now, the Nationals can get back to .500 with a win. The best offense in baseball will be facing a kid making his big league debut. Hopefully they can give him a rude […]

Editor’s note: The Commanders remain flush with salary-cap space entering the meat of this offseason program. That doesn’t mean general manager Adam Peters has to spend, but he’s got options should he feel the need to fortify his already revamped roster. We’ll do some spending for him, suggesting some street free agents who could help Washington in this weeklong series. We’ve contemplated adding receiver Stefon Diggs and cornerback Rasul Douglas. In […]
