Andrés Chaparro’s last stint with the Nationals didn’t include much playing time, to put it mildly. He appeared in only four games during three weeks on the big league roster in June.

This time around, there should be considerably more at-bats for the 26-year-old first baseman/designated hitter, who was recalled from Triple-A Rochester in a roster swap with infielder José Tena.

“He’s going to be playing against left-handed pitchers,” interim manager Miguel Cairo said. “I’m going to try to mix it up. It depends how he does. But we want to see him, and he should have an opportunity to show what he can do.”

Sure enough, Chaparro is in tonight’s lineup against Mets left-hander David Peterson, batting seventh and starting at first base, with Josh Bell back in the DH role after several starts at first base over the weekend.

The Nats saw glimpses of Chaparro’s production late last season, when he totaled 12 doubles and four homers in 33 games. But he went just 1-for-11 in his earlier stint this summer, stuck on the bench behind both Bell and Nathaniel Lowe.

The Nationals survived the first of four consecutive series against playoff contenders from Philadelphia and New York, splitting their four-game series with the Phillies. Next up, it’s the Mets, who come to town in a bit of a tailspin, having lost 14 of their last 17 while dealing with all kinds of injuries. They did manage to win two in a row over the weekend against the Mariners, including Sunday night’s Little League Classic in Williamsport. So perhaps they’re on the mend. Either way, they can’t afford to lose this series to the Nats.

One of the surprising stalwarts of the New York rotation has been David Peterson, the veteran left-hander who has always resided at the back of the rotation but has ascended into a top starter this year, earning his first career All-Star selection. Peterson has been outstanding against the Nationals throughout his career, going 6-1 with a 2.64 ERA in 13 games (10 starts). That includes a six-hit, zero-walk shutout earlier this season at Citi Field.

Peterson’s opponent for that June 11 was Jake Irvin, who gave up four runs over five innings to take the loss. That was in stark contrast to Irvin’s April 25 start against the Mets, when he went 7 1/3 innings giving up only one run. He also dominated this lineup twice last season, memorably tossing eight innings of one-hit ball last July 4 and then also going 7 1/3 allowing only one run last September in Flushing.

Which version of Irvin shows up tonight? The Nationals would love for him to get back on track against an opponent he’s enjoyed success against more than once before.

The Nationals were down 6-0 in the top of the third Sunday afternoon. It was hot. It was muggy. They’d already clinched at least a four-game weekend split with the Phillies. And it would’ve been easy at that moment to be content with that.

But when Trea Turner lined a two-out single to right field, Dylan Crews charged the ball and did what his baseball instincts told him to do, no matter the score. He fired the ball toward the plate, hoping to get it there in time to nab Harrison Bader, who was trying to score from second.

The throw was on time. It was on target. And it one-hopped perfectly into the mitt of Drew Millas, who applied a swipe tag just as Bader was trying to slide into the plate. Umpire Jacob Metz ruled him out, and the Nats ran off the field with a much-needed emotional boost.

“I think any moment, you’re just trying to find a spark to get everybody going,” Crews said. “Luckily, I was in a position to get a spark going and was able to get the guy out at home to flip over the inning. It could be anybody that could be that spark, and luckily I was there to help us with the momentum.”

The throw, clocked at 95.4 mph, was impossible to ignore.

When the Nationals needed to clear a roster for Dylan Crews’ return from the 60-day injured list last week, they chose to designate starting first baseman Nathaniel Lowe for assignment and keep seldom-used infielder Jose Tena.

Now, after a four-game split with the Phillies, the Nats have sent Tena down in favor of another first baseman.

The club announced following Sunday’s wild 11-9 loss it had optioned Tena to Triple-A Rochester. No corresponding move was announced, but a source familiar with the decision confirmed the plan to promote Andres Chaparro, which was first reported by Rochester journalist Dan Glickman.

This set of transactions underscores several points: 1) Tena really wasn’t likely to get much playing time, even though he did start a couple of games over the weekend, 2) Chaparro provides a needed right-handed bat to a lineup that has been too lefty-heavy and 3) The Nationals dropped Lowe not because they needed to, but because they wanted to.

Regarding that final point, the decision to designate Lowe caught many by surprise, given his status as one of the team’s only experienced position players and the fact his $10.3 million salary was tops on the roster this year. But it had become clear over the last month-plus that Lowe simply wasn’t producing enough, and that his continued presence didn’t match up with the organization’s intended plan in both the short- and long-term.

Consider this morning’s series finale on South Capitol Street a play in four acts, the second portion a hope-filled drama, the opening and third ones a full-blown Shakespearean tragedy before the final one left the crowd yearning for more but ultimately unsatisfied.

The encouraging portions came entirely during the third and ninth innings, when the Nationals erased a sizeable deficit and turned what looked like it would be another unsightly blowout in a day game into a suddenly competitive affair.

Alas, that alone wasn’t going to be enough to top the Phillies. An ugly opening to this 11:35 a.m. matinee from Mitchell Parker and the Nats defense, then a slog of a final six innings by the bullpen ultimately equaled an 11-9 loss to the Phillies.

Despite a spirited rally from down 6-0 to tied 6-6 in the third, then Paul DeJong's three-run homer in the ninth to turn 11-6 into 11-9, the Nationals couldn't finish the job. Daylen Lile doubled to bring the tying run to the plate and force Philadelphia closer Jhoan Duran into the game. But Duran won an eight-pitch battle with Dylan Crews, then struck out pinch-hitter James Wood on three pitches to end the game.

"I think it just shows the heart we've got," Crews said. "It takes a lot to come out here and play a really good team like that. We do an excellent job of not giving up, especially in the late innings."

What an unexpected weekend this has become. The Nationals have strung together three consecutive quality starts. And the bullpen, in spite of an ugly top of the seventh Friday night, has only been scored upon in one of eight innings so far in this series against the Phillies, leading to two wins and one other highly competitive game. And now we come to the finale, with an unlikely opportunity to win three of four from the division leaders.

That, of course, is easier said than done, for several reasons. It begins with Mitchell Parker, who takes the mound today on the heels of three straight subpar starts in which he’s allowed a total of 17 runs in only 14 1/3 innings. That stretch has raised his ERA to an unsightly 5.55. The lefty is going to have to be significantly better today against the Philly lineup, especially out of the chute in the top of the first. And even if he does his job, the Nats bullpen is going to be without closer Jose A. Ferrer, who recorded six outs Saturday and has recorded at least four outs three times in his last four appearances.

At the plate, the Nationals actually haven’t done that much this weekend, totaling seven runs in three games. Given their own pitching concerns, they probably need a big day at the plate against Aaron Nola (making his return from the injured list) to give themselves their best shot at a win.

It’s a joint booth calling the game, pairing up Phillies play-by-play announcer Tom McCarthy with Nats analyst Kevin Frandsen, plus the one and only Dan Kolko serving as sideline reporter.

In these, the dog days of August during a miserable season, there are still distinct glimmers of light for the Nationals. For all the chaos they’ve endured this year, there remain more than a few prominent young core players who still have the ability to make 2025 meaningful in the larger picture.

And when they come together like they did today during a 2-0 victory over the Phillies, it reminds suffering fans and team employees alike there’s still some hope for what lies ahead.

"The pieces are there," James Wood said. "We've just got to continue to learn and grow. I think wins like this are great. I think everyone in this locker room here knows we have the potential to play with anybody. It's just a matter of doing it consistently, and stringing together days like today."

It was right there for 36,042 paying customers to see on a steamy Saturday afternoon, with Cade Cavalli authoring seven scoreless innings against one of the most intimidating lineups in baseball. It extended to the batter’s box, where the Nationals scored both of their runs in the bottom of the fifth via Wood’s two-out double, with recent first-round picks Dylan Crews and Brady House coming around to score.

And it was even there on the mound for the final two innings, with Jose A. Ferrer recording the final six outs for his third career save, the young lefty retiring the Phillies’ biggest names to lock up the victory and ensure at least a four-game weekend split against the National League East leaders.

As the Nationals took the field for batting practice Friday afternoon, Miguel Cairo motioned to Keibert Ruiz and José Tena to come join him at first base. To field grounders. And make some throws. And learn a little bit about a position neither of them has ever played before in a game.

It made for quite the scene, both because the 51-year-old interim manager was showing off his own still-solid glove skills and because the sight of Ruiz at something other than the catcher’s position made for an obvious question: Are the Nats thinking about moving him to first base at some point?

“No, no, no. It’s nothing like we’re planning to do it,” Ruiz said today.

As the 27-year-old catcher, out since early July with a concussion, explained: This is a way for him to get some on-field activity without putting himself at risk of further health problems. From a psychological standpoint, doctors have told him to try to stay engaged and react to baseball movements without thinking about the concussion.

“Kind of to put your mind away from: ‘Oh, I have to be careful,’” Ruiz said. “It’s nothing like I’m going to play first base now.”

Two games into this four-game series, the Nationals and Phillies have each won once. Each was a competitive game decided late by the bullpens. It’s kind of been fun to watch, hasn’t it? So, what’s in store for game three of the weekend set later this afternoon?

The headline attraction from the Nats’ standpoint is Cade Cavalli, who makes his third start of the season (fourth of his career). The first one (against the Athletics) was outstanding. The second one (against the Royals) was decent. This one comes against a far more imposing lineup, so we’re going to find out a lot about the 27-year-old rookie when he goes up against Kyle Schwarber, Bryce Harper and Co. (Oh, and by the way, Cavalli is scheduled to face them again next week in Philadelphia.)

Taijuan Walker takes the mound for the Phillies, and the Nationals have already faced him this season, scoring four runs in 5 2/3 innings back on May 1. He was shifted to a bullpen a month later, but he’s back in the rotation now and has a 2.93 ERA over his last six starts.

That the Nationals found themselves in a position to win tonight’s game against the Phillies was a testament to MacKenzie Gore’s intestinal fortitude over six gutsy innings and the lineup’s ability to actually make Zack Wheeler work enough to knock him out after only five.

These two division rivals, residing at opposite ends of the NL East, were tied heading into the seventh before a boisterous, Friday night crowd of 35,143. It was about as much as the Nats could have asked for under the circumstances.

The problem: A Nationals bullpen that causes heartburn even when at full strength was without its two most reliable arms. So what happened next couldn’t have shocked anyone in the building, especially when considering the opponent.

Back-to-back home runs by Kyle Schwarber and Bryce Harper off Konnor Pilkington flipped the game in the top of the seventh, the Phillies’ big boys taking down a rookie member of the Nats’ relief corps en route to a 6-2 victory on a steamy August evening in Navy Yard.

"Look, you know you've got to play well against that team. Because if you don't, they can beat you up," Gore said. "I think just understanding that going in ... a tough loss tonight, but I think we all did a good job of that."

As the latter stages of Thursday night’s game was playing out, Cole Henry started to get the sense he was going to be the man holding the ball for the top of the ninth.

With interim manager Miguel Cairo using new closer Jose A. Ferrer to face the heart of the Phillies lineup with a one-run lead in the eighth, Henry was told by bullpen coach Ricky Bones to prep himself to pitch the ninth for the first time in his career.

“I was just preparing mentally,” the rookie reliever said. “And hopefully whenever they call the phone, it was gonna be me to do it.”

A few tense minutes later, Henry was pounding his glove in celebration, his teammates gathering at the mound as the stadium lights at Nationals Park turned red to commemorate the team’s 3-2 victory, the 26-year-old having notched his first career save in the process.

It wasn’t a perfectly clean inning. Henry surrendered a leadoff single to Max Kepler, then saw him advance to third base on a sacrifice bunt and a ground ball to the right side. That left the tying run 90 feet with Trea Turner at the plate. With the crowd standing, Henry won an eight-pitch battle with the former Nats star shortstop, striking him out on a sinker that ran way in on his hands and left Turner helplessly flailing at it.

The Nationals sent a message when they designated struggling first baseman Nathaniel Lowe for assignment this afternoon to make room for Dylan Crews’s return: "We want to see the young kids. ... We want to see what they can do,” said interim manager Miguel Cairo ahead of tonight’s four-game series opener against the Phillies.

Sure enough, Cairo started four of his five young outfielders, with James Wood serving as the designated hitter, Daylen Lile playing left field, Jacob Young in center and Crews back in right.

But it was another young player Cairo chose to start tonight that came up clutch for the Nats against this veteran Phillies squad in a 3-2 comeback victory in front of an announced crowd of 21,609 on South Capitol Street.

“I gotta tell you, that's a game that you look at it and it's like a playoff game," Cairo said after the win. "That's the way you play games like this. Good pitching, good defense, opportune hitting. It was nice to see our pitchers, our defense, our hitters really engage in the game and doing the little things. That's what we did today. They picked each other up.”

Of the five young outfielders, three of them are left-handed hitters, so one of them figured to sit to start this one. The odd-man out was Robert Hassell III. And Cairo also figured this was a good time to give shortstop CJ Abrams a breather after he played 24 straight games and with tough left-hander Jesús Luzardo starting for the visitors. So Paul DeJong started at shortstop and José Tena started at second base for just his fifth appearance since being recalled from Triple-A Rochester 2 ½ weeks ago.

Way back on March 27, the 2025 season began with the Nationals hosting the Phillies and an Opening Day pitchers’ duel between MacKenzie Gore and Zack Wheeler. On that 57-degree afternoon, Gore authored the best start of his career, retiring 17 of 18 batters, 13 via strikeout, to outduel Wheeler (who allowed only one run on two hits in six innings himself).

Tonight, we get the rematch on a hot and muggy, August evening, the Nats’ season having long since gone awry while the Phillies have soared into first place in the NL East. Gore went through his own slump recently, but he bounced back in a big way Sunday in San Francisco, shutting out the Giants over six innings with 10 strikeouts. The lefty will try to keep things going tonight against Kyle Schwarber, Trea Turner, Bryce Harper and Co.

Wheeler, who leads the league in WHIP and strikeouts to go along with a 2.68 ERA, faces a Nationals lined that scratched together three runs to win Thursday night’s series opener but would love to do more than that tonight with James Wood, CJ Abrams and Dylan Crews all in the lineup together for the first time since May 20.

When Ethan Petry was selected as the Nationals’ second-round pick a month ago, he had no idea he would stick out like a sore thumb among the organization's first five picks. The University of South Carolina product was the only player of the Nats’ top-five selections to play in college.

The Nats’ first five picks all landed in both MLB Pipeline’s and Baseball America’s latest rankings of the organization's top 30 prospects. But the experienced Petry (No. 8 per Pipeline, No. 6 per Baseball America) has been the only one to get his professional career rolling, making his Single-A Fredericksburg debut on Tuesday with a hit, a run and a walk as the designated hitter.

“I'm really excited to start my career here with the Nationals,” Petry said Wednesday on the “District Chat” podcast. “Last night, got the win for Fredericksburg and just really excited to have the opportunity to play for the Nationals.”

Petry’s experience at South Carolina helped put him on a faster track to the pros than his high school draft classmates. The 21-year-old hit .321 with 10 doubles, one triple, 10 home runs, 34 RBIs, 26 walks and 30 runs scored in 44 games for the Gamecocks in 2025. He posted a .437 on-base percentage and a .590 slugging percentage while leading the team in home runs and ranking second in RBIs and walks.

Facing pitchers with similar or less experience in the Carolina League hasn’t been too hard.

The Nationals had a decision to make this afternoon as they prepared to reinstate Dylan Crews from the 60-day injured list. Do they send one of their four young outfielders – James Wood, Jacob Young, Robert Hassell III or Daylen Lile – down to Triple-A Rochester to get regular playing time? Or do they hold onto five outfielders and send down infielder José Tena, who has only played in four games since he was recalled 2 ½ weeks ago?

In the end, the Nats surprisingly went an entirely different route by designating struggling first baseman Nathaniel Lowe for assignment to make room for Crews, who returns after almost three months while dealing with a left oblique strain.

“We feel like we want to see the young kids,” interim manager Miguel Cairo said of the decision before tonight’s series opener against the Phillies. “We want to keep Hassell in the outfield, Lile, we have Wood. We have young players and I think we want to see them play. We want to see what they can do in the last month, month and a half.”

Lowe was acquired by former general manager Mike Rizzo in a December trade with the Rangers in exchange for left-handed reliever Robert Garcia. With two more years of arbitration eligibility, Lowe lost his salary arbitration case against the team and received a $10.3 million salary (the Nats’ highest-paid player this season) rather than the $11.1 million he requested.

The 30-year-old’s first half of the season was somewhat of a mixed bag. While he was on pace to be one of the team leaders in home runs and RBIs, his batting average, OPS and defensive metrics were well below his career averages.

The Nationals have returned from a 3-3 road trip for a tough homestand. In fact, they have a tough stretch to finish August, with each of their next 13 games coming against a team currently in a playoff position.

This homestand against two divisional rivals starts with a four-game set against the Phillies, who own a five-game lead over the Mets in the National League East. Luckily, the Nats will be getting some reinforcements by activating Dylan Crews off the 60-day injured list as he returns from his oblique injury. In a corresponding move, the Nats surprisingly designated first baseman Nathaniel Lowe for assignment. So we’ll have to wait and see how interim manager Miguel Cairo constructs his lineups with five young outfielders moving forward.

Brad Lord certainly has been one of the bright spots for this team in the second half. Since rejoining the rotation full-time, the right-hander is 1-1 with a 2.70 ERA over four starts, with the Nats winning three of those games. He did make a start against the Phillies when he was briefly a part of the rotation back in May, tossing five innings of two-run ball with four strikeouts and one walk. He earned the win in that game, too.

Former Nats draft pick Jesús Luzardo starts for the Phils. The lefty is 11-5 with a 4.20 ERA and 1.346 WHIP in 24 starts. He started the second game of the season here at Nats Park and struck out 11 over five frames of two-run ball in a Philly rout.

Dylan Crews’ return tonight from the 60-day injured list is a major development for the Nationals, and his performance over the next six weeks is one of the team’s most important storylines down the stretch of what has been an incredibly depressing season.

But in some ways, there’s just as much intrigue today to the flip side of Crews’ return. Somebody has to be dropped from the Nats’ active roster, and that transaction may say a lot about the performance and future expectations for a bunch of players who will be impacted by the decision.

We’ve known for several years now the Nationals eventually were going to confront a dilemma in their outfield, with more promising young prospects than available positions. They managed to hold off making any major decisions there due to Crews’ oblique injury, which wound up sidelining him nearly three months.

But the time has come to decide which three young outfielders are going to get the bulk of the playing time the rest of the season. Or, perhaps, which four young outfielders are going to split time among three positions. Or, perhaps, if the Nats are going to try to find a way to keep all five in the majors at the same time.

This much we know: James Wood is going to keep playing every day. Aside from an occasional rest day, the 22-year-old slugger is going to be in the lineup as much as possible, whether in left field or maybe as designated hitter sometimes.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The five-run top of the first – not to mention the extra runs scored in the third and fourth innings – should have been enough to make Miguel Cairo’s afternoon easy. But as Jake Irvin labored himself to keep that big lead intact, it became apparent the Nationals’ interim manager was going to have to play every pitching card he had available to him in an attempt to win today’s series finale against the Royals.

And then it was still going to require some more late offense to pull this one off.

It wasn’t always pretty, but the Nats did find a way to escape Kauffman Stadium with an 8-7 victory, one made possible by Daylen Lile’s game-winning single in the top of the ninth and five relievers combining to allow just one run over five innings.

"They've been ready, they've been settling down. They're doing an excellent job," said Cairo of a relief corps that has been turned over several times this season and currently includes seven rookies alongside 25-year-old closer Jose A. Ferrer. "Today, it was a team effort: Offense, pitching. That's what we're asking."

Lile’s clutch hit came a few minutes after the Royals tied the game against unlikely setup man Clayton Beeter. Luis García Jr. ignited the rally with a one-out double off Kansas City’s Carlos Estévez, then took third on Josh Bell’s flyout to center. Two batters later, Lile got to a 2-1 changeup from Estévez and lined the ball to right field for the go-ahead single.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The Nationals are planning to activate Dylan Crews off the 60-day injured list Thursday for the start of their upcoming homestand, a source familiar with the club’s plan confirmed.

Crews, who has been out since May 20 with a strained left oblique muscle, has been on an extended rehab assignment with Triple-A Rochester. He’s playing his 13th game today for the Red Wings, batting second and serving as designated hitter. Barring any setbacks, he’ll rejoin the Nats in D.C. and come off the IL for Thursday’s game against the Phillies.

It’s been a long road back for Crews, the No. 2 overall pick in the 2023 MLB Draft, who struggled through the season’s first month-plus, batting .196 with seven homers, 15 RBIs and a .620 OPS in 45 games. He was just starting to get hot at the plate, though, before he hurt himself on a check-swing, homering in each of his last two games.

The Nationals chose to be extremely cautious with Crews’ recovery process, bringing him along slowly after he was cleared to resume baseball activities last month. He began his rehab assignment with Rochester on July 29, and over the course of more than two weeks he built up to playing nine innings in right field on back-to-back days.

Entering this afternoon’s game against Syracuse, Crews was 10-for-39 with one double, two homers and seven RBIs in 12 games. Physically, he has passed every test; the Nats simply wanted to give him time to get at-bats and get comfortable playing again, treating the rehab assignment like it was spring training.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – This road trip started off well for the Nationals, who won two of three in San Francisco over the weekend. Alas, now they find themselves needing a win this afternoon to avoid a sweep in Kansas City. How quickly things change.

The Nats have been hitting on the trip. They’ve averaged 5.3 runs and 11.8 hits over the last four days. James Wood (8-for-19, four doubles, one homer, seven RBIs) has been a big part of that, and it’s been great to see the big guy look like himself again after the worst slump of his brief career. They’ll try to continue the trend today against veteran right-hander Seth Lugo, who recently signed an extension with the Royals but has been unable to get out of the fifth inning in each of his last two starts, giving up seven runs to the Twins on Friday.

Jake Irvin has also been shaky his last two starts, with nine runs allowed over 9 1/3 innings against the Brewers and Giants. The right-hander has seen his ERA jump to 4.90, and he has surrendered a league-leading 26 homers now. He needs a bounceback this afternoon, and the key may be as simple as getting through a clean first inning. His ERA in that opening frame is a gargantuan 9.75. After that, it’s a very respectable 3.86.
