Nationals' Record-Breaking Collapse | Washington Nationals News

The Nationals just shattered a Major League record with their 38th blown save this season — and it’s not the kind of record they want. Despite early leads, like the one against the Padres, they keep crumbling, thanks to costly errors and porous pitching that’s averaging nearly six runs per game. While young stars Dylan Crews and Cade Cavalli are showing flashes of brilliance — Crews crushing homers, Cavalli dominating with strikeouts — others like CJ Abrams are struggling, striking out often and dragging down the offense. With Wednesday’s loss, they’ll finish another sub-.500 season — marking seven straight years since their 2019 World Series glory. Talent is there, but turning things around? That’s the real question.
