Washington Nationals vs New York Mets Game Thread
The Nats are playing an early game in an attempt to try and avoid the bad weather. This game got pushed from 3 PM to 12:35. With just two games to go, we are really in the homestretch here. Hopefully the Nats can finish strong this weekend. Blake Butera is making a couple changes to […]
The Washington Nationals officially avoid a last place finish
The Washington Nationals will be staying out of last place in 2026! With the 7-6 win last night, the Nats officially secured 4th place in the division. While 4th place is obviously not the goal, it is a clear step forward. As long as the Nats did not get swept, they would avoid last place […]
Washington Nationals vs New York Mets Game Thread
The end is truly near now. It is time for the final series of the season. The Nats square off against the Mets this weekend for their last games of 2026. With one more win, the Nats will secure not being in last place. This should be a fun series to watch. James Wood will […]
Washington Nationals final chapter of 2026 season comes with 3 games against Mets
In what has been a tumultuous season with plenty of exciting highs and crushing lows, the last series of 2026 is finally here. With just two games separating these two clubs for the 4th and 5th spots in the National League East, the battle for the basement of the division has taken us all the […]
Jorbit Vivas has not been that bad for the Washington Nationals
Throughout this season, Jorbit Vivas has not exactly been a fan favorite. The 25 year old utility infielder has come under fire from the fanbase for several reasons. Between his struggles with RISP early in the season and his occasional lapses in focus, Vivas has become a target. However, I think some of the criticism […]
The Rochester Red Wings win their first International League title since 1997
The Washington Nationals brought home a championship! Well, not exactly, but the organization did bring home some hardware yesterday. The Rochester Red Wings, the Nats AAA affiliate, won their first International League title since 1997 last night. They won a winner take all game 3 over the Memphis Red Birds to be crowned champions. When […]
Nationals prospect Devin Fitz-Gerald has persevered despite a trying year on and off the field
Devin Fitz-Gerald is one of the more fascinating prospects in the Nationals system. The switch hitting infielder is the 5th ranked prospect in the system according to MLB Pipeline and 4th according to Baseball America. Out of the 5 prospects the Nats received in the MacKenzie Gore trade, Fitz-Gerald looks like the best one at […]
The Washington Nationals have an interesting decision to make at first base next season
Entering 2027, there are going to be a few position battles to watch. There should be plenty of competition on the pitching staff in particular. However, one spot that intrigues me is the first base/DH position. It looks like there will be at least three players battling it out for that first base spot and […]
Yohandy Morales and the bullpen give the Washington Nationals their 75th win of the season
Since the Nats brutal west coast trip, the team has played very well to close out the season. They are 8-3 since that 7 game losing streak and got another series win this afternoon. The Nats bullpen game strategy worked like a charm and the bats picked things up in the middle innings. On the […]
Washington Nationals vs Detroit Tigers Game Thread
After last night’s rare low scoring win, the Nats are in position to claim a series win. This afternoon contest in Detroit will be the last road game of the season for the Nats. The boys will look to finish on a high note as they head home for a final series. With a lefty […]
My thoughts on the Washington Nationals shutting down Cade Cavalli
With the season about to wrap up, the Washington Nationals have decided to shut down Cade Cavalli for the season. He only had one more scheduled start, but the Nats are going to close the book on their ace. It is a decision I understand even though I don’t love it and think it is […]
Washington Nationals vs Detroit Tigers Game Thread
Last night was not a competitive performance from the Nats. The offense did not show up and the pitching put them in a hole. Hopefully the boys can get back to playing like they have the past couple weeks. With only five games to go, this season is almost over. Why not finish strong. Blake […]
Cayden Wallace’s breakout season has put him back on the map for Washington Nationals
There have been all sorts of offensive breakouts throughout the Nationals organization. From Keibert Ruiz and Andres Chaparro at the big league level to Seaver King and Ronny Cruz in the minors, there has been a lot of success. However, one under the radar breakout has been Cayden Wallace who has put himself back on […]
James Wood has struggled down the stretch again for the Washington Nationals
CJ Abrams’ second half struggles have been well documented at this point. However, James Wood’s slump has flown a bit under the radar. Part of that is due to the month he missed due to injury. Nevertheless, Wood has simply not been the same player since the midsummer classic for a second straight season. James […]
Washington Nationals vs Detroit Tigers Game Thread
We are in the last week of the season. The Nats only have six more games until the 2026 season is over. This road series in Detroit will be the last one of the season. It is crazy that it is almost over. Spring Training still feels like yesterday but here we are. With a […]
Nationals star CJ Abrams has developed into a much bigger power threat than scouts expected
In the 2019 MLB Draft, CJ Abrams was one of the most highly touted prospects. MLB Pipeline ranked him as the 4th overall prospect in that draft. However, he was not seen as being a monster power hitter. Pipeline actually expected him to be a 10 to 15 home run hitter whose speed and contact […]
What to expect from DJ Herz’s return to the Washington Nationals
Entering the 2025 season, the pitcher I was most excited about was DJ Herz. He was coming off a rookie season where he flashed immense upside and looked like a key cog in the Nats rotation. One of the first articles I wrote for this site was about how high DJ Herz’s ceiling was. However, […]
Washington Nationals vs St. Louis Cardinals Game Thread
After a dramatic win last night, the Nats are in position to sweep the Cardinals this afternoon. The Nats have been playing good baseball since their 7 game losing streak. They will look to continue that today in St. Louis. With heavy bullpen usage this series, both teams will want length from their starters as […]
The Washington Nationals had a roller coaster of a win last night that showed good and bad
I am sure plenty of people were watching college football over the Nats last night. However, if you did not catch this game, you missed out on a crazy contest. The Nats pulled off a wild 8-5 win in 11 innings. We saw the best and the worst of this team in this game. They […]
Washington Nationals vs St. Louis Cardinals Game Thread
Yesterday went about as well as possible for the Nats. They beat up the Cardinals, Cade Cavalli got extended and Josiah Gray returned to action. Now they will look to clinch a series win against the Red Birds. If they win tonight, they will avoid a 90 loss season for the first time since 2020. […]
Nationals players who could soon be in line for Cade Cavalli-like extension
The recent news of the Nats extending breakout starter Cade Cavalli to a 4-year, $47 million extension is nothing but great news for Washington fans, and now many have their sights set on who the next extension candidate could be. James Wood and CJ Abrams remain the far-and-away most deserving players, but getting either star […]
Yesterday was the best day for the Washington Nationals in a long time
Yesterday was a fantastic day for the Washington Nationals. We got so many fun moments and milestones. The good vibes were flowing and the team was playing some good baseball. I wanted to break down all the good things that happened yesterday and discuss what they mean moving forward. There were a lot of great […]
Washington Nationals vs St. Louis Cardinals Game Thread
It is a happy day in Nats nation. Ace Cade Cavalli got a contract extension which has fans fired up. The boys will start their last road trip of the year and that will start in St. Louis. These two teams have not faced off since April, so this will be an intriguing matchup. James […]
The Washington Nationals make Cade Cavalli’s extension official
After reports emerged last night that the Nats were closing in on an extension with Cade Cavalli, the team made it official this afternoon. The 28 year old right hander is signing a 4-year contract that includes a club option for a 5th year. Those first four years will cost $47 million and the team […]
The Washington Nationals Head to St. Louis for Their Final Road Trip of the Season
The Washington Nationals will head to St. Louis for a three-game weekend series after splitting a short two-game set against the Philadelphia Phillies. Washington took the opener 6-3 behind a pinch-hit three-run home run from Daylen Lile, but the offense went quiet in Wednesday’s 3-0 loss. The Nationals enter the weekend at 71-82 and have […]
