"Cade Cavalli pitched 4.0 innings against the Houston Astros and dominated with six strikeouts and zero earnies. The defense behind him wasn't good and Cavalli still limited them to only one unearned run. As we mentioned on Friday, Cavalli lines up perfectly for Opening Day, albeit without any extra rest days."
"At this point, we only have 13 Spring Training games in the books and the one exhibition game, and no batter has more than 21 official plate appearances on the Washington Nationals. And for that matter, no pitcher has more than 5.0 innings in official games."
The Washington Nationals prepare for a Spring Training night game against the New York Yankees with a 7-3 record through 13 games, plus a 5-1 exhibition win. Josiah Gray starts with top prospects expected to appear later. Cade Cavalli impressed recently with six strikeouts over 4.0 innings despite defensive issues, positioning him as an Opening Day candidate. The team has accumulated 56 batters with limited plate appearances across the roster, as no player exceeds 21 official at-bats and no pitcher has thrown more than 5.0 innings in official games. Daylen Lile recorded his first official hit via home run.
