The Washington Nationals already clinched this series win against the first place Seattle Mariners with wins on Friday and Saturday. Now, the Nats go for a sweep with Patrick Corbin on the mound.

The Washington Nationals were losing 1-0 last night, and their offense didn’t have a baserunner in three innings. The Mariners’ pitcher had a perfect game going and averaging 8-pitches per inning. Then Luis Garcia Jr. happened. He crushed a Weaver into the visitor’s bullpen on an oppo shot that put the Nats up 3-1. Starter, MacKenzie Gore, looked like the ace that we were all hoping for. He went 7.0 innings and never allowed another run past the second pitch of the game.

The roster will have a decision to make shortly when Lane Thomas is activated off of the 10-day IL with a knee sprain. He is currently playing rehab games at Double-A Harrisburg. But there are other moves to make as someone has to leave the roster to make room for Thomas.
Don: The obvious move is Thomas up and someone off the roster. I could think of several moves.
Steve: I am making lots of moves over the next five days. I make more in three weeks from Friday when I bring up James Wood on June 14.

They have their own Minnesotan on the mound this afternoon in Jake Irvin who was born in Minnesota and first drafted by the Twins in 2015. Irvin turned down the Twins then and headed to college, and he hopes to turn down the Twins today.

The Washington Nationals snapped their losing streak and got back into the W column on Monday. The offense put up 12-runs on the Twins for a decisive 12-3 win. The running game and the power surge turned the game into a blow-out.

The Washington Nationals are mired in a five-game losing skid and hope to find the same magic they found last year on April 21 in L’Étoile du Nord against the original Washington Senators, now known as the Twins. A month ago from today, the Nats were celebrating a walk-off against the Astros and a march towards the .500 mark. The starting pitching isn’t the problem here. Every starter on the mound for manager Davey Martinez did enough to be the stopper in the last time through the rotation, and it was some combination of either the defense, baserunning, the bullpen, or the offense that could not get it done to push a game into the W column.

"Opening Day should be a National holiday"
We recently upgraded our comment system to improve reliability, performance, and long-term control, and we’re currently running both systems during the transition. This shift moves us away from an external service to a system we run and control directly—meaning we own the content and can continue improving it over time. We’ve also reduced the comment refresh delay from about 30 seconds to 10 seconds, making it much closer to real-time.
We understand there have been frustrations and increased feedback, and we’re actively working to improve things. What we ask is simple: use the system and give it a fair shot. If you run into issues, please submit them through the support form so we can track and fix them properly. Repeated complaints without details don’t help us solve problems—we appreciate your patience as we continue refining the experience.
If you’d like a full side-by-side comparison of the platforms and the reasons behind this decision, please refer to the chart below. This change is being made with the long-term benefit of the entire community in mind.
