Latest news and updates about the Nationals
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 […]

The Mets have officially called up Zach Thornton, who will make his major league debut tonight for the Mets against the Nationals. The left-hander will wear number 49, most recently worn by Chris Devenski but most notably worn by another left-hander, Jonathon Niese. In a corresponding move, the team has optioned Daniel Duarte to Triple-A. […]
While the Nats have been pretty relatively successful this season so far at the plate , they are not sitting on their laurels. Yesterday they officially sent Brady House down and optioned Joey Weimer to make room for Dylan Crews and Andres Chaparro to come up. Why? Well sort of because Jacob Young got hit by a pitch. On Monday Jacob Young took a pitch to the ribs. It was apparently pretty bad and he's nursing some bruised ribs. Jacob defensively is the glue that holds the OF ...
It has been a long time coming, but it finally feels like the Washington Nationals have an identity as a team. They are a young and hungry group that can mash and play the game hard. This is also one of those teams that is never out of a game, no matter the deficit. In […]
The Mets were coming into the second game of the Nationals series on fire. Between a five game winning streak, back-to-back extra inning wins, and a ten run twelfth inning the night before, they were riding high. And their de facto ace and rookie sensation Nolan McLean was getting the start, which was a good […]
It is a day of change for the Nationals. Former top 2 pick Dylan Crews is back in the fold after spending the first month and a half in the minors. Fellow former top pick Brady House was sent down to make way for Crews, which is a real shakeup to this team. Crews will […]

So far this season, Curtis Mead has been the Nats most underrated hitter. The Aussie infielder has put up really impressive numbers to start the season. Mead has an .815 OPS, a 133 wRC+ and has more walks than strikeouts. Entering the season, this was seen as Mead’s last chance to prove himself, and he […]
When it was reported during last night’s game that Dylan Crews was making his way back to the big league club, most assumed the corresponding move would either be an injured list stint for Jacob Young, who wore 93 to the ribs from former Florida Gator teammate Christian Scott, or a DFA’ing of Joey Wiemer, […]
Meet the Mets The Mets won an absolute insane baseball game, becoming the first team since 1983 to score double digit runs in extra innings as they prevailed 16-7 over the Nationals in twelve innings. It was the club’s third straight victory and their sixth win in their last seven games. Choose Your Recap: Amazin’ […]
The Mets and Nationals played an absolute slog of a game that lasted a little over four hours, but the Mets won 16-7 in the end. And hey, that beats the alternative. The Mets got on the board first when Luis Torrens doubled on a ball that just passed over third base as it made […]
It was a shock when Dylan Crews was demoted at the end of Spring Training, but we knew he would be back. Just over a month and a half into the season, Dylan Crews is back and has a huge opportunity to prove himself. Crews got off to a shaky start in AAA but has […]
Despite missing out on a sweep, the Nats still had a successful weekend against the O’s. They will look to keep the good times rolling against another rival in the Mets. The first time the Nats and Mets played, the Nationals managed to win two out of three. Now, they will match up for four […]

The Mets will call up Zach Thornton to pitch in Wednesday’s game against the Nationals, according to Carlos Mendoza. It is unclear whether he will get the start or pitch behind an opener, but he will be used in some capacity. Thornton will pitch in place of the injured Clay Holmes, who suffered a fractured […]
After promoting Yeremy Cabrera to High-A last week, the Nats made another noteworthy and overdue promotion. Paul Toboni and the Nats front office decided the time was right to promote Seaver King to Triple-A. After a rough first full season as a pro last year, King has come back with a vengeance, hitting .336 with […]
After winning the first 2 games of the series against the Orioles, the Nationals squandered their opportunity to push above the .500 mark in a 7-3 loss in the series finale. They now have another chance to accomplish that, as they’re set to square off against the New York Mets in a 4-game series. The […]
It’s back to facing off against the usual suspects for the Atlanta Braves, as their 2026 train now rolls into familiar territory for the next week of baseball action. This includes four games with the Marlins in Miami and three games at home against the Nationals. This is certainly a golden chance for the Braves […]
Coming off their most improbable win of the year to take the Queens edition of the Subway Series, the Mets (20-26) find themselves in Washington, D.C. for a four-game series against the Nationals (23-24). With five wins in their last six games and a 10-5 record thus far in the month of May, the Mets […]
Happy Monday, Camden Chatters! I hope you had a nice weekend. Things started off poorly for the Orioles with two losses to the Nationals, including an embarrassing 13-3 rout on Saturday. But they finished the series with a solid 7-3 victory to salvage one game. The offense yesterday was powered by home runs from guys […]
After today’s loss to the Orioles, I could focus on the negatives, but I do not think that is the story of this weekend. Even though the Nats could not pull off the sweep, it was still a very successful weekend in the nation’s capital. The Nats did something they have not done in a […]
After a deeply gratifying win to get to .500 yesterday, the Nats have a chance to sweep the O’s. Getting to .500 is cool, but getting over that hump would be even better. They will have a chance to do just that in front of what should be another stellar crowd at Nationals Park. The […]
Taylor Ward will bat first and serve as the designated hitter today as the Orioles look to avoid a sweep in DC. Ward will be followed by shortstop Gunnar Henderson and first baseman Pete Alonso. Samuel Basallo will do the catching with Adley Rutschman starting the game on the bench. Tyler O’Neill, Colton Cowser, and […]
