The Washington Nationals, after a brief break, are riding a positive wave with a 4-1 record since a crucial team meeting in Atlanta. They now face a challenge against the Braves' ace Spencer Strider, returning from injury. Starter Mitchell Parker's performance could significantly impact the game. Meanwhile, roster stability continues despite concerns regarding Jacob Young's shoulder injury. Defensive metrics reveal struggles, particularly for players like Nathaniel Lowe and Amed Rosario, emphasizing the need for improvement as they seek to maintain momentum in the season.
When your margin for error is smaller, you have to play a cleaner brand of baseball. Rizzo said on Wednesday on 106.7 The Fan radio.
There were no roster moves today by the Nationals given that all of their players had good weekends in Baltimore.
If Nats' starter, Mitchell Parker, is as good as he was in the month of April, the Nats could be hard to beat in today's game.
The only current issue is the health of Jacob Young who is recovering from a shoulder contusion after he collided with the outfield wall on Saturday.
