It’s a beautiful spring day in the nation’s capital, and everyone around here is in a good mood after Tuesday night’s 7-0 win over the Orioles. The Nationals have quietly won three of their last four as they try to creep closer to the .500 mark. A duplicate performance tonight would certainly help them get closer to that break-even point. Davey Mar

Left-hander Trevor Rogers made his first injury rehab start today at Double-A Chesapeake and gave up a two-run homer to Altoona’s Kervin Pichardo two batters into the game. Rogers worked three innings and allowed two runs and four hits with one walk and three strikeouts. He threw 44 pitches, 29 for strikes. Rogers is on the injured list after dislo

The afternoon began with Davey Martinez suggesting Jose Tena was going to start getting more playing time, perhaps establishing a righty-lefty platoon at third base with veteran Amed Rosario. If Tena keeps playing like he did Tuesday evening, he won’t have any trouble convincing his manager to pencil him into the lineup with more regularity. On a n

The Orioles are four games below .500 again and the rotation issues won’t go away. They were one-hit, so it isn't just the pitching. The anger generated from Sunday's 24-2 loss was supposed to shatter slumps and funks. What can you trust? Well, there’s mailbag leftovers. You asked, I answered, and some stuff had to be held. Let’s get to it before t

Mitchell Parker’s Tuesday night actually got off to a rough start. He walked Orioles leadoff man Cedric Mullins on four pitches, then elicited some Bronx cheers when he finally threw a strike to Adley Rutschman. Little did anyone realize what was still to come. “It definitely wasn’t ideal,” the Nationals left-hander said with a sheepish grin. “But

WASHINGTON – The pain points in the Orioles' 2025 season aren’t difficult to locate. They were apparent in Sunday’s lopsided game and they showed themselves again tonight in a 7-0 loss to the Nationals. “We did not play well,” said manager Brandon Hyde. “It is disappointing. Coming off a game we definitely wanted to throw away a couple of days ago,

The Nationals can now start counting down the days until CJ Abrams returns to their lineup. But first, the All-Star shortstop needs to prove he’s good to go in a rehab assignment. Abrams is playing tonight for Double-A Harrisburg, his first game action since aggravating his right hip flexor April 11 in Miami. He’s technically eligible to come off t

WASHINGTON – Sometimes you have it and sometimes you don’t. An adage applicable to your driver on the golf course, your falsetto at karaoke and a starting pitcher’s feel for off-speed and breaking pitches. Dean Kremer doesn’t have an overwhelming fastball. It averages about 93.6 mph, according to FanGraphs, and opponents are hitting .304 against th

It’s good to be home. The Nationals haven’t been here in almost two weeks, back when they won consecutive series against the Diamondbacks and Dodgers. Things took a decided turn downward on the road, but at least they won two of three in Colorado over the weekend. Now after a day off, they prepare for a six-game homestand against the Orioles and Me
