Marlins Pull Away in the 8th

from Nats Chat · host Mark Zuckerman & Al Galdi, Blue Wire

The Nats dropped a second straight winnable game over the weekend in Miami.   Mark & Al react to Washington's 5-2 loss in the rubber match of the three game series that came just before the Wizards were announced as the lottery winners for the NBA Draft. (05:30) The Nationals continued their pattern of sloppy play by making a pair of crucial outs on the bases. One of them was particularly painful because it came with James Wood in the batter's box and a runner already in scoring position. (11:10) Nasim Nuñez let a double play ball go through his legs that led to an early unearned Marlins run while filling in at shortstop. (16:45) Miami pulled off a double steal against Gus Varland in the pivotal bottom of the 8th.  Drew Millas also used poor judgment in use of ABS Challenge that inning. (21:30) An assessment of Cade Cavalli's outing where he allowed two runs in almost six innings of work.  Cavalli struck out four and his ERA dropped a tad to 4.02. (23:00) Luis Garcia tripled and also had a RBI double in the middle of the game.  Could Garcia step up and be the 3rd best hitter in this lineup? (37:15) Jim Callis, Senior writer for MLB Pipeline, gives Nats Chat an exclusive scouting report on potential options for the Nats at #11 at this Summer's MLB Draft.       Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

(27:00) Jacob Young was hitless, but did make a pair of fantastic defensive plays in the top of the 2nd. Mark notes some instances where Brady House could improve defensively. (32:05) The Nats are off on Monday and begin a three game series in Cincinnati on Tuesday night. Every team in the NL Central is currently over .500.
