Monday morning Nats Q&A

Nationals
Let's see, it appears the last time we did a Q&A here was May 8. The Nationals were 17-21 at the time. Neither Robert Hassell III nor Daylen Lile had made his major league debut yet. The bullpen, which still featured Lucas Sims, had an ERA over 7.00. So, a few things have changed in the last month. A few things, that is, besides the record. The

The Orioles will happily take a day off at any point in the season, whether it interrupts an impressive run or follows a losing series to the lowly Athletics. Can never have too many resets. But they obviously wish that the latter didn’t apply. The flight home yesterday had to feel much longer. Facing the Tigers in a three-game set that begins Tues

WEST SACRAMENTO, Calif. – The result of this afternoon’s game had a heftier weight on the pendulum.  If victorious, the Orioles would head back to the East Coast winners of two straight series out west and five of six games overall. Couple that with a sweep of the White Sox, and that’s eight of nine. With Jordan Westburg and Cedric Mullins potentia

They waited all week for someone to deliver the big hit that would snap the entire team out of its sudden offensive funk. They’ll still be waiting when they next take the field Tuesday night in New York, hoping success comes on the road, because it sure didn’t come at home. The Nationals completed a disappointing series and a disappointing homestan

WEST SACRAMENTO, Calif. – “When you’re talking about 10-plus guys on the IL, and now, little by little, they’re coming back. If you understand that, you know that things will turn around," Ramón Laureano said last night.  "And that’s what we’re seeing right now.” Things are trending in the right direction in Baltimore.  After last night’s 7-4, come

Two of the Nationals’ regulars, each of them struggling mightily at the moment, are getting the day off. Both CJ Abrams and Keibert Ruiz are sitting for this afternoon’s series finale against the Rangers. That’s a product both of the matchup, with Texas sending left-hander Jacob Latz to the mound to open a bullpen game, and of those hitters’ recent

Nationals
A win today and the Nationals would salvage a 3-3 homestand. Nothing wrong with that, especially when you consider how much they’ve been struggling at the plate. The Nats have scored nine total runs over their last six games. They were shut out Saturday afternoon by the Rangers. The two games they have won this week came by the same score of 2-0. S

The West Coast trip winds to a finish this afternoon, with the Orioles unable to run their sweep streak to three series. The mighty Athletics ruined those plans on Friday night.  The season is 63 games old and the Orioles entered last night 12 below .500, 14 out of first place in the division and 8 ½ from the last Wild Card. Only the A’s and White
