Nationals' Lefty Arms Out | Washington Nationals News

The Washington Nationals face a bullpen crunch as two key left-handed relievers, Mitchell Parker and Richard Lovelady, hit the injured list—Parker with elbow inflammation and Lovelady with a triceps strain. Both pitched in Sunday’s win before being sidelined, leaving the team short on experienced lefty options heading into a tough series against the Red Sox. To fill the void, the Nats have called up Carson Palmquist and Riley Cornelio from Triple-A. Palmquist is expected to take the lead as the primary lefty, while Cornelio adds versatility. With the Red Sox offense heating up and the Nationals still in the wild card hunt, how the bullpen adapts could make or break their season.
