Latest news and updates about the Nationals
There were a lot of positive things to come out of the 2026 season for the Nationals. The offense exploded, starters like Cade Cavalli and Andrew Alvarez broke out, and the farm system is in a great place. However, the bullpen was a nightmare for the Nats this season. They aimlessly cycled through arms and […]
In the next edition of my player grading series, I wanted to talk about a player I have been thinking about quite a bit these past couple of days. Brady House did not have a full scale breakout in 2026, but he took a substantial leap forward. He made serious improvements and has put himself […]
The Washington Nationals sat at 54-52 on July 26 and were just outside the Wild Card picture. That also happens to be the day they made their first of many trades. Instead of buying, however, Washington decided to sell. Curtis Mead, who was in the midst of a career year, was shipped out to Boston […] The post 3 Trends That Will Help the Nationals Contend in 2027 appeared first on Just Baseball .
ATLANTA — Trea Turner had an ugly play in the eighth inning, but it would be incorrect to say it […]
Throughout the season, the offense was a major story for this Nationals team. It was the unit that carried this team and made them so exciting to watch. I wanted to break down what made this offense so special and dive into some of the numbers. Part of what made this offense so special was […]
Potential Nats related rooting interests in the opening round... Philadelphia vs Atlanta Ok so not a real "Nats friendly" series here to start with given it's two NL East rivals. The Phillies have Bryce who did nothing wrong but fans still dislike for being a bit weird and going to a rival. They also have Kyle Schwarber and Trea Turner and former Nats prospect Jesus Luzardo AND Derek Hill who played 13 games for the Nats in 2023. It's Nats-tastic! The Braves have...
Throughout this offseason, we will be grading players’ performances this season. It is a good way to recap their seasons and take a look at what comes next. The first player we will profile in this series is CJ Abrams. The Nats shortstop had a monster year on the offensive side of the ball, but […]
The St. Louis Cardinals have claimed right-hander Chase Hampton from the Nationals.
The Cardinals announced Monday that they’ve claimed right-hander Chase Hampton off waivers from the Nationals. Their 40-man roster now has 39 players.

Assuming that Max Scherzer wants to return for the 2027 season, the Nationals and Tigers are among those who should consider the future Hall of Famer.
The book is now closed on the 2026 Washington Nationals season. They finished the season 77-85, making an 11 win improvement from last season. This was a true step forward season, but there is still a way to go. James Wood summarized the season well when he told me, “We should be proud of how […]
The Nationals 2026 season is over and finishing at 77-85 with their best record since 2019 is a pretty obvious sign that this was a successful season. More than that, spending a good chunk of the season flirting with relevance and watching the new regime shore up the minors without doing much tearing down of the majors helps give the fanbase some hope that good times are coming sooner rather than later. As we look back in retrospect, the season leaves us with good vibes, though ones slightly d...
New York Mets superstar Juan Soto had a two-word response when asked what makes him confident the club can contend in 2027, despite finishing this year with a disappointing 74-88 record. “Carson Benge,” said Soto after New York’s 6-4 loss to the Washington Nationals in their final game of the season. “That’s the confidence we […] The post Juan Soto reveals major reason he feels 2027 will be a big year for Mets appeared first on ClutchPoints .

WASHINGTON, D.C. — On the penultimate day of the MLB regular season, the New York Mets defeated the Washington Nationals, 7-1. For the first couple of innings, both offenses were quiet. The Nats pushed across the first run of the contest in the third inning off of starter Jonah Tong, due to a sacrifice fly from Abimelec Ortiz. The score remained 1-0 into the top of the seventh, but then the New York offense found its groove. A leadoff single from Carson Benge and a walk drawn by Francisco Alva...
