The Nationals believe Jarlin Susana avoided a major elbow injury, but they admittedly won’t know for sure until the top pitching prospect proves he can return to the mound after a brief planned shutdown. Susana has a Grade 1 sprain of his ulnar collateral ligament, a concerning revelation but one that won’t immediately require Tommy John surgery. M
The Nationals came home feeling pretty good about themselves, but they have since lost four of five on this homestand and now need a win today to avoid a weekend sweep at the hands of the Cardinals. Offense is key, especially early offense. The Nats need to find a way to jump on Miles Mikolas and play out in front instead of behind for a change. Hi
While other players string together hits or prevent runs from scoring in consecutive games, Orioles infielder Emmanuel Rivera might become known more for his stubborn streak. Rivera is a waiver claim in August, dumped by the lowly Marlins, and bats .313 with a .948 OPS in 27 games with the Orioles. Eight of his 20 hits went for extra bases, includi
ANAHEIM – The Orioles started their series in Anaheim hot, with three runs in their first two offensive frames. Tonight, though, it was the Angels’ turn, as Baltimore fell 5-2. Los Angeles recorded three straight singles to start the game, and in the blink of an eye, it was 2-0 Halos. After a few more baserunners and nearly 30 pitches, Kyle Gibso

His ERA, after allowing four first-inning home runs to the Yankees in his first start, is all the way up at 14.09. His second start was much improved, and
The Orioles snapped a five-game losing streak last night with a 4-1 victory in Anaheim and will try tonight to win back-to-back for only the third time. Jackson Holliday moves atop the order for the second time in his career. Cedric Mullins is lowered to sixth. Mullins went 0-for-5 last night and is in a 1-for-30 slump. He’s hitless in his last 15
The Nationals needed improvements all across the board to snap their three-game losing streak. Following last night’s 10-0 blowout loss to the Cardinals in the series opener, they needed better pitching and better offense. Unfortunately, they got neither in their fourth straight loss, this one by a score of 4-2 with frustration mounting on an other
After last night’s postgame roster move of releasing right-hander Lucas Sims, the Nationals have found a replacement in their bullpen. Zach Brzykcy was recalled this afternoon from Triple-A Rochester for an extended stay in the Nats ‘pen after serving as the 27th man for Tuesday’s doubleheader against the Guardians. “Great. Obviously, it's good to
The Washington Nationals recalled right-handed pitcher Zach Brzykcy from Triple-A Rochester on Saturday and requested unconditional release waivers on right-handed pitcher Lucas Sims on Friday night. Nationals President of Baseball Operations and General Manager Mike Rizzo made the announcement. Brzykcy, 25, pitched to a 2.35 ERA (2 ER/7.2 IP) with
