Latest news and updates about the Nationals
One of the bigger storylines in the Nats fanbase is whether Dylan Crews should make the team. Even a month ago, that would have sounded a bit crazy, considering Crews seemed to have a starting job locked up. I still think he will make the team and play a lot, but his leash is getting […]
Meet the Mets The Mets fell to the Nationals 12-6 as Washington erupted for six runs in the ninth to break a 6-6 tie. David Peterson allowed four runs in his four innings of work, while Christian Scott took the loss after allowing three earned runs in three-plus innings. Carson Benge went 2-for-2, Ronny Mauricio […]
In a see saw game on Monday night at Clover Park, the Mets fell 12-6 to the Nationals thanks to Washington’s six-run eruption in the ninth inning. It was the Mets’ ninth loss of the spring to go along with their 11 wins and one tie. The Mets return to action tomorrow afternoon as they […]
The Nationals have lost their last couple spring games, so they will look to get back in the win column against the Mets. More importantly, the Nats quiet bats will try to get things going before the season starts in 10 days. We also get to see the return of Jacob Young. This is a […]

It feels hard to believe after a long offseason that saw more change within the organization than perhaps any other in club history, but we are now 10 days away from the Nationals’ regular season kicking off at Wrigley Field against the Chicago Cubs. The team is beginning final preparations as well, with starting pitchers […]
Mitchell Parker and Andrew Alvarez (unsurprisingly) was sent down to the minors adding clarity to the rotation. It's funny but we'll talk about "we're not sure what's going on with the rotation" but 9 times out of 10 what everyone thinks will happen, happens. It's just Spring talk. The Nats brought in Littell and Mikolas and Griffin to start. Cavalli will start. The 5th slot is likely Irvin's until someone, like Herz or Gray or Susana or Williams, shows themselves to be...
Last season, the Washington Nationals bullpen was an utter disaster. They posted a 5.59 ERA as a unit, which was comfortably the worst in baseball. However, I do not see that happening again. In fact, I think the Nationals bullpen will surprise people in 2026. There may not be any star names, but I think […]
Meet the Mets Yesterday the Mets placed Justin Hagenman on the 60-day injured list with a rib fracture. In a corresponding move, the Mets claimed familiar face Dicky Lovelady off waivers from the Nationals and added him to the roster. David Stearns is demonstrating that he has learned lessons from the failures of 2025, writes […]
Hello, friends. There are now 11 days remaining until Orioles Opening Day. Another eight exhibition games remain to be played in Florida, plus the home-and-home with the Nationals next Sunday and Monday. That includes a 6:05 game against the Yankees here tonight, the first night game of the spring schedule so far. The game will […]
The Mets have once again acquired left-handed relief pitcher Richard Lovelady, as the team has claimed him on waivers from the Nationals and placed right-handed pitcher Justin Hagenman on the 60-day injured list with a rib fracture. Since signing with the Mets in late June last year, Lovelady has been designated for assignment by the […]
Meet the Mets The Mets played two last night, with the away squad defeating the Nationals 8-3 and the home team falling to the Marlins 1-0. Kodai Senga had another stellar outing yesterday, and the Mets continue to hope they will be getting the best version of him in 2026. Francisco Lindor continues to progress […]

The Washington Nationals have made another round of cuts as Opening Day comes closer. This round involved the most notable names and saw some familiar faces get sent to the minors. It also provided some clarity on what the roster could look like. However, there are still plenty of roster spots up for grabs. For […]
If you watched the first inning of last night’s Spring Training game between the Astros and Nationals, you got to see the future of baseball on display. The ABS challenge system was put into overdrive, as three CB Bucknor calls were overturned in just the first inning. It was a quick and easy system that […]
Led by a dominant 3 shutout innings from recently named Opening Day starter Cade Cavalli, the Nats beat the Cardinals 3-1 yesterday to improve to 10-4 on the spring, 2nd second in all of baseball. Cavalli has had as good of a Spring Training as you could hope for, as he has now thrown 9 […]
The Houston Astros (7-8-3) host the Washington Nationals (10-4-3) in Grapefruit League action. RHP Mike Burrows will make the start for the Astros, opposed by RHP Jake Irvin for the Nationals. TONIGHT’S STARTER: RHP Mike Burrows, making his fourth start of the Spring, has been fantastic thus far, tossing 8.2 scoreless with 10 strikeouts, a […]
After being named the Opening Day starter this morning, Cade Cavalli took the ball for the Nats in their Grapefruit League showdown with the Cardinals. He only went three innings in this one, but he looked impressive. Cavalli did not allow a hit and struck out two Cardinals, setting the tone for a strong afternoon […]
The St. Louis Cardinals will travel to the Spring Training home of the Washington Nationals on Wednesday, March 11. According to MLB.com, Dustin May will get another start for the Cardinals while Cade Cavalli will take the mound for the Nationals. Here’s the starting lineup according to the St. Louis Cardinals website:
This morning, the Washington Nationals officially announced that Cade Cavalli will be their Opening Day starter on March 26th. If you have been following the team, this is not much of a surprise. However, it is still a cool moment for Cavalli, who will be making just his 12th career start. It is rare to […]
The Washington Nationals were playing the Marlins in Jupiter yesterday, but that was not where I wanted to be. I learned that the Nats prospects were playing in some backfield games against the Astros prospects. This allowed me to see some players I had never seen before. There were four games going on, two on […]
While the news broke a couple days ago, the Nats made the signing of Zack Littell official. We also got the terms of the deal, which are quite interesting. The base of the contract is a one-year $7 million deal. However, with incentives and a mutual option, Littell is likely to make much more than […]
This morning I had the privilege of going into the Nationals locker room during their media availability time. I had the chance to talk to a few pitchers and they updated me on how their spring’s were going. It was very cool to be in there and the players gave thoughtful answers. The first person […]
The Nationals have a stockpile of young infielders. That means 19 year old Ronny Cruz can get lost in the shuffle sometimes. However, he showed off what he can do yesterday in his first at bat of the spring. The youngster launched a home run off of big leaguer JP France, which gave the Nats […]
