Seaver King is giving the Washington Nationals no choice but to call him up

Seaver King is not knocking on the door of the big leagues, he is banging down the door. King is on the type of heater that should be impossible for Paul Toboni to ignore. At this point, there are no baseball related reasons for Seaver King to be in Rochester. In King’s last 11 games, […]

Nationals outfielder Daylen Lile is having a sophomore slump at the plate

Heading into the season, Daylen Lile was one of the players I was most excited to see. He was coming off a stellar rookie season that was capped off by winning NL Player of the Month in September. However, he has been unable to recapture that magic for most of this season and last night’s […]

Washington Nationals vs Texas Rangers Game Thread

Last night the Nats got carried by their ace Cade Cavalli. They also got enough offense thanks to a monster night from Andres Chaparro. The Nats will look to claim a series win with their second best starter on the mound. After some recent road struggles, a series win would be a nice way to […]

Matt LeCroy has mastered the art of being a Triple-A manager

Before even talking to Rochester Red Wings manager Matt LeCroy, I could feel his presence. When I got to Rochester, two things became very clear to me. First was that I needed to try a “Garbage Plate”, Rochester’s signature dish. Second was that Matt LeCroy was a beloved presence as the Red Wings skipper. When […]

Nationals ace Cade Cavalli is nibbling on the edge of Cy Young contention

Last night Cade Cavalli twirled yet another gem. As the season has gone on, Cavalli is reaching another level. That is so encouraging to see given the fact we have had plenty of pitchers regress as the season goes along in the past. With how Cavalli has been pitching lately, he has put himself into […]

Washington Nationals vs Texas Rangers Game Thread

Last night was a lifeless performance for the Nats, who got shut out by the Rangers. Now they will look to even the series and take steps back in the right direction. The last thing we want is for a once promising season to totally implode the last two months of the season. The Nats […]

What should the Washington Nationals do about their Dylan Crews problem?

It has been a brutal month of August for the Washington Nationals on multiple fronts. They lost key players to trades, James Wood got hurt and the losses have been piling up. However, Dylan Crews’ miserable play of late is another factor in the Nats struggles. When the team needed him most, Crews has been […]

The Washington Nationals are in free fall

Heading into the Toronto Blue Jays series, the Nationals were 54-52 and only one game back of a Wild Card spot. They were coming off a thrilling series win against a fellow playoff hopeful in the D-Backs. However, things have come off the rails since then with trades, injuries and position changes causing the season […]

Washington Nationals vs Texas Rangers Game Thread

The Nats’ struggles against divisional opponents continued with a sweep at the hands of the last place Mets. Thankfully they will be playing a non-divisional opponent to start the week. The Nats have been quite good in interleague play with a 22-17 record. They will look to keep that going against the Rangers. Nasim Nunez […]

Seaver King is the Spark Plug the Washington Nationals need

In the 4th inning of Sunday’s contest between the Rochester Red Wings and Charlotte Knights, Seaver King fired a 90 mph rocket to first base to finish off an inning ending double play. After the play, the Nats star shortstop prospect was fired up, flexing on his way back to the dugout. This combination of […]

It’s now or never for the Nats in Texas for a series against the Rangers

It’s already been do-or-die time for the Nationals as their chances of a playoff berth begin to slip away, but this series against the Texas Rangers might be their final chance to ignite a late push. Washington is 5-10 in the month of August, and, coming off a 3-game sweep at the hands of the […]

Nasim Nunez should be a bench player for the Washington Nationals

Over the last few days, the future of the Nats shortstop position has been discussed very heavily following CJ Abrams’ move to second base. For the rest of the season it seems like Nasim Nunez will be the team’s primary shortstop. Honestly, that is not an idea I am thrilled about given Nunez’s lack of […]

Ronny Cruz Is Transforming As A Hitter in High-A Wilmington

After an explosive April in which Ronny Cruz posted a 184 wRC+ in 14 games at Low A, leading to a quick promotion to High A and appearances on many top 100 prospects lists, Cruz suffered a stretch of months where he was unable to string together much offensive success at his new level. Whiff […]
