Cade Cavalli Is Becoming an Ace | Nationals Crush Rangers 6-0 | Nats MinuteCast

Cade Cavalli is becoming the pitcher the Washington Nationals hoped he could be. Cavalli dominated the Texas Rangers in a 6-0 Nationals victory, striking out 11 batters over six scoreless innings and reaching double-digit strikeouts before the fourth inning was over. After his brilliant no-hit bid against the Cubs, Cavalli followed it up with another statement performance and extended his streak to eight consecutive quality starts. In this episode of the Nats MinuteCast, Dan Holmi breaks down why Cavalli's emergence could change the Nationals' timeline, why Washington made the controversial decision to move CJ Abrams from shortstop to second base, and what this all means for the next version of the Nationals. The Nationals finally snapped a four-game losing streak, Andrés Chaparro delivered a huge three-run homer, and the bullpen actually finished the game without the usual drama. But the biggest story is Cade Cavalli. The Nationals may finally have their ace. Now they have to build around him.
