With the trade deadline just over 24 hours away, I wouldn’t blame you if you immediately scrolled down in search of three names in the Nationals lineup: Juan Soto, Josh Bell and Nelson Cruz. Well, for now, all three are in Davey Martinez’s starting lineup. Keep an eye out for late scratches and in-game replacements. It’s that time of year. Ehire Ad

It’s been 16 days now, 16 long days, since the first report emerged of Juan Soto declining a 15-year, $440 million extension, prompting the Nationals to “entertain” the possibility of trading their star right fielder. Everyone has been put through the ringer ever since. Soto, who can’t make it through a single day without somebody bombarding him wi

A new week brings trade deadline, rotation questions and last draft signings (updated twice)
Roch Kubatko
Orioles
The trade deadline is close enough to touch. The countdown is tracked in hours rather than weeks or months. The Orioles aren’t expected to step back and watch other teams conduct their business. They have players that appeal to contenders. They can provide starting pitching, relievers, outfielders and infielders. They have veteran backup catchers,

With a chance to win a second consecutive series over a National League contender, the Nationals instead today did what they’ve done so many times over the last four months.

CINCINNATI – The Orioles rallied to pull out a close game in the late innings in the series opener on Friday night and for most of today, it looked like the team might need something similar in the series finale against Cincinnati at Great American Ball Park. They were locked in a scoreless duel with Reds top pitching prospect lefty Nick Lodolo. An
