Nasim Nunez’s speed and defense have always been exceptional. However, for most of this season, the bat has been so bad that fans questioned whether the juice was worth the squeeze. At the end of May, Nunez’s OPS started with a 4, but he has been red hot in June. It has been a wild […]
Nationals left-hander DJ Herz suffered a setback in his recovery from last year’s Tommy John procedure. Skipper Blake Butera told reporters (including Byron Kerr of MLB.com) that the southpaw has been pulled off his rehab assignment after suffering a flexor muscle strain. The silver lining is that the current issue is muscular rather than renewed ligament […]
After the game, Foster Griffin told me, “You are not done until the manager shakes your hand and says you are done”. Last night, that hand shake did not come until one out in the 8th inning. When Blake Butera took the ball from Griffin, the crowd that stuck through a long rain delay erupted […]

As rain batters much of the Northeast, it'll be a challenge to get in a game at all in the nation's capital on Monday night.
Here are the lineups for game 1 in Washington. Let’s discuss. For the Phillies: For the Nationals:
The Philadelphia Phillies have named a starter for their series opener against the Washington Nationals. They will deploy left-hander Tim Mayza as an opener ahead of Alan Rangel.

In a rubber match for the series yesterday afternoon, the Nationals hung around against the Rays, taking a 3-2 lead into the 7th inning, but were unable to hold onto it, as a Jonny DeLuca 2-run blast off Orlando Ribalta in the bottom of the 7th gave the Rays a 1-run lead they would hold […]
The Phillies’ previous opponent was expected to be a contender but is mired in last place. Now, they’ll head south to take on a Nationals team that many expected to finish in last place but instead finds itself in the mix for a playoff spot.
