These Nats just continue to score runs in bunches. Last night, they put 8 on the board in a comfortable win over the Mets. Offensive performances like the one from last night just seem to be par for the course right now. Hopefully they can keep it up with a chance to get over .500 today.
The Nats have the same lineup as last night. However, there is one position tweak. Daylen Lile and James Wood are switching spots. Wood will be out in left field, while Lile will be the DH. Otherwise, it is exactly the same as last night, which is a rare occurrence under Blake Butera. Cade Cavalli will take the ball, and he is coming off a strong outing against the O’s.
The Mets are making a couple changes to their lineup. Luis Torrens will be back behind the plate, replacing Hayden Senger. MJ Melendez is the DH again, but he is moving down to the 8 hole. Besides that, it is mostly the same faces as we have seen the past few days. David Peterson has been pitching behind an opener a lot lately, but today he will get the ball from the start.
There could be some rain in the area, but hopefully it stays away until the game is over. This is a big chance for the Nats to make a statement to finish off a successful home stand. The offense is raking and this team has been so much fun to watch. Follow along in the comments down below and let’s go Nats!
