"The FanGraphs WAR chart is accumulating data. This will start to give us a clearer picture in a few more weeks when the sample sizes get larger. The OAA defense stat is now giving us a picture of what the Nats have - and don't have. We will start adding more statistics as the sample sizes get larger."
Happy Mother’s Day is acknowledged with pink-themed tributes. The Washington Nationals aim to win their game today before a day off tomorrow in Cincinnati, with the season reaching exactly 25% completion after the top of the fifth inning. The matchup features starting pitchers Cade Cavalli and Sandy Alcantara, resembling an Opening Day pairing. After Saturday’s game, Mitchell Parker is not available today, and Richard Lovelady is also not expected to pitch again after working 2.0 innings as the opener. Bullpen usage is outlined through manager Blake Butera’s plan. FanGraphs WAR and OAA defensive metrics are accumulating data and will become clearer as sample sizes grow. The game is scheduled for 12:15 PM EDT at loanDepot park, with Peacock and NBC Sports for TV and multiple radio options listed.
