Notes and quotes from last night in Nationals Park...
CORBIN NUMBERS MATCH EFFORT FOR ONCE:A frequent refrain from Nationals’ manager Davey Martinez following Patrick Corbin’s starts this season has been some variation on the idea that the numbers don’t tell the whole story as far as how the left-hander has fared.
“Once again, the numbers show he didn’t pitch well,” Martinez said after the 34-year-old put 6 1?3 innings of work in on the road in Dodger Stadium, giving up...
The Washington Nationals placed left-hander Robert Garcia on the 15-day injured list Tuesday, making him the second player on the club to go to the IL with influenza.
Notes and quotes on the Nationals’ catcher and shortstop...
KEIBERT RUIZ CLOSE TO RETURN:
Keibert Ruiz (influenza) hasn’t been in the Nationals’ lineup since April 8th when the club was in San Francisco, CA. Ruiz, 25, is close to returning, according to manager Davey Martinez, but the illness has taken a toll on the catcher, who told reporters he has lost significant weight over the past few weeks.
“He lost like 18-20 pounds,” Martinez said when he spoke the D.C. press corps on...
There's a strange trend in place as the Los Angeles Dodgers and host Washington Nationals begin a three-game series Tuesday night. It's the Nationals who appear to be the hotter team, while the Dodgers will be looking for some answers at the beginning of a nine-game road trip.
Mitchell Parker is 2 for 2 with solid starts early in his career. Notes and quotes on the Nats’ starter’s second outing...
Talking about Mitchell Parker’s MLB debut on the road in Dodger Stadium last week, which came four years after the Nationals selected the southpaw in the 5th Round of the 2020’s truncated COVID Draft, GM and President of Baseball ops Mike Rizzo described the lefty’s rise through the ranks as an organizational success story.
It was the result of a lot of hard...
They look nothing like that team so far this season, and with Sunday's 6-0 loss to the Washington Nationals, the Astros find themselves at the bottom of the American League standings with a shocking 7-16 record.
Mitchell Parker threw seven shutout innings in his second career major league appearance as the Washington Nationals held back the visiting Houston Astros 6-0 on Sunday afternoon.
The Washington Nationals should have some momentum going into Sunday afternoon's series finale against the visiting Houston Astros. The series is even at one game apiece after the Nationals rallied for a 5-4, 10-inning victory Saturday.

“Look, I’ve known Trevor for a while,” Nationals’ manager Davey Martinez told reporters after he pulled Trevor Williams at 77 pitches on the road in Oakland, with Washington up 6-1 over the A’s. Williams got through five innings on 67 pitches, giving up just one run, but a walk to the leadoff batter in the sixth inning, and a one-out double put runners on first and third, so Martinez went to the...

FOULED OFF:When 25-year-old starter MacKenzie Gore is at his best, as he was at times while striking out 11 over five innings on the road in Oakland during the last road trip, he’s really something.
“It’s beautiful,” Davey Martinez said after the southpaw dominated the Athletics and kept the home team off the board in a 3-1 win in Oakland Coliseum.
“He goes out there and he attacks the strike...
On-base percentage might be the single most important offensive statistic. Just look at the league leaders in OBP from recent years: Ronald Acuña Jr., Aaron Judge, Juan Soto, Juan Soto (again), Mike Trout, Mike Trout (again), Joey Votto, Mike Trout (again), Bryce Harper… you get the point.

MARTINEZ GETS NO. 400:Eighteen games into his seventh season on the bench in D.C., Davey Martinez earned his 400th win as a manager on Wednesday night, in a 2-0 win in Dodger Stadium, where the Washington Nationals won the 2nd of 3 with the Los Angeles Dodgers in the series.
Typically, the now-59-year-old skipper, who has a 400-488 record overall, did his best to try to downplay...
Justin Verlander's season debut comes at a great time for the Houston Astros. The veteran right-hander takes the ball for the first time this season when the Astros visit the Washington Nationals on Friday night.

ABRAMS UP TOP:CJ Abrams took a four-game hit streak into the series finale in LA, with five of six hits over the four games extra bases hits, (three doubles, a triple, and a HR). Abrams, 23, extended the streak early in the third of three in Dodger Stadium on Wednesday, taking the debuting Dodgers’ starter Landon Knack’s second pitch, a 1-0 fastball pretty much down the middle to right-center field (392 ft. from home) for a...
Right-hander Jake Irwin went six scoreless innings and CJ Abrams hit a leadoff home run as the Washington Nationals finished off a long California trip in style with a 2-0 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Wednesday afternoon.
After looking like he was on his way out of the league, Washington Nationals outfielder Jesse Winker has been one of the hottest hitters in baseball to begin the 2024 season.

QUICK “IF YOU DIDN’T STAY UP” RECAP:Patrick Corbin gave up three runs over the first two innings last night on the road in Dodger Stadium, but Jesse Winker hit a full-count curve from Dodgers’ lefty Ryan Yarbrough 429 ft. to right-center in the top of the third to get the visiting Nationals within one run, 3-2 LA.
It was home run No. 2 on the season for Winker, whose .482 OBP going into the second of three in...
Intent on getting his season on track, Washington Nationals left-hander Patrick Corbin will visit familiar surroundings on Tuesday night. When he faces Los Angeles at Dodger Stadium, the outing will give Corbin (0-2, 8.44 ERA) his most appearances at a venue he has never called his home park.

NO PRESSURE, MITCHELL!:As the Nationals’ Communications Department noted before last night’s game, 24-year-old, 2020 5th Round pick Mitchell Parker, who made his MLB debut in the series opener against the Los Angeles Dodgers in Dodger Stadium, became just the second pitcher in MLB history to, “... face three former MVPs as the first three hitters of his career,” with the Dodgers lining up Mookie Betts, Shohei Ohtani, and...
