Game 144 lineups: Nats vs. Marlins
Mark Zuckerman
Nationals
The Nationals have been dreadful within the NL East this season, going an inconceivable 11-46 against division opponents to date. But would you have guessed their biggest struggles have come not against the division’s three playoff contenders but the only other sub-.500 team? Somehow, the Nats have gone 1-12 against the Marlins, a shocking head-to-

Revolving outfielders have more to prove over final weeks
Bobby Blanco
Nationals
Even with two extra spots in September, the Nationals are currently only carrying four true outfielders on their active roster. That’s usually the standard for any team: three starters and one backup on the bench. But manager Davey Martinez, in fact, has utilized six players in the outfield since the roster shakeup at the trade deadline. Victor Rob

The O's improved play in Toronto and Gunnar Henderson's strong start
Steve Melewski
Orioles
Where just a few years ago the Orioles went winless for an entire season at Toronto’s Rogers Centre, the improved 2022 Orioles have tied one four-game series there and won a three-game series. These are not the 2018 Orioles, who went 0-9 in Toronto and that included losses by 10, six and six runs. But it didn’t start well for these O’s at Rogers Ce

Elias on Henderson: "It was about as meteoric of a season as you’ll see"
Roch Kubatko
Orioles
Each game that Gunnar Henderson plays and each night that he remains in the lineup for a team chasing its playoff dreams, the more fortunate the Orioles must feel that their draft board in 2019 didn’t prove completely accurate. That they would be the organization to select a player who, three years later, grew into baseball’s No. 1 prospect. Hender

About an hour north up I-295, a rival organization provides a blueprint for the Nationals and their rebuild. A few years ago, the Orioles began the process of rebuilding their own organization. Now they are starting to turn the tide into contention, finding themselves unexpectedly four games out of an American League wild card berth. That path back

Is there time left for Rodriguez to enter Orioles rotation?
Roch Kubatko
Orioles
As infielder Gunnar Henderson proves that he belongs in the majors and the Orioles didn’t rush him or hinder their playoff chances based on his arrival - he's inflating their optimism like a bicycle tire - there’s one more prospect who could come along for the ride. The No. 1 pitcher in the minors. What’s the plan with Grayson Rodriguez? Unfortunat
