Elevate to Celebrate; Farm Report; Visiting Slam Diego

Episode 128, FULL SHOW -- It was a wacky series at Coors Field in Colorado for the Nationals, but they escaped the Mile High City with a series win, taking 2 of 3 games from the Rockies. Grant Paulsen & Tobi Altizer breakdown CJ Abrams return to the lineup, the teams recent struggles on the basepaths, how the young Starting Pitching fared in their first career starts at Coors Field, and how the pending returns of Josiah Gray and Cade Cavalli could impact the current Starting Rotation. Plus, Kyle Finnegan was on the wrong side of history in Game 2 of the series, falling victim to the first ever Walk-off Pitch Clock Violation since the Pitch Clock was implemented across the Major Leagues. What happened and can Finnegan fix his issues with Pitch Clock Violations?; With Dylan Crews and Brad Lord being promoted, and the return of James Wood, Triple-A Rochester is the place to be to see some of the Top Prospects compete at a high level. Grant & Tobi look back at recent performances from the last week in Minor League action; After taking 2 of 3 from Colorado, the Nats are headed to San Diego for a 3-game set and look to send 3 lefty starters to the mound to take on the Padres who sit just ahead of them in the Wild Card race. Can the Nats take advantage of a team that has struggled against Left-Handed Starting Pitchers so far in 2024? Grant & Tobi preview the series ahead.
