Game #126 Cade Cavalli MLB Debut

The rumors proved true that the Washington Nationals were going to activate Cade Cavalli this week. They were waiting for an optimal matchup for Cade Cavalli’s debut, and what better time to do this? He gets to face a Cincinnati Reds team without lefty Joey Votto who is finished for the season with an injury. In fact, the Reds have three starters hitting .180 and less in tonight’s lineup.

All rebuilds have one thing in common: they are painful for fans. The rest is how you approach it, and none are exactly the same — but many blow it. The Angels, Tigers, Rangers, and White Sox come to mind on the list of botching it. The Phillies would have made this list, but they are now in a wait-and-see as their strategy was to just throw money at the problem.

There will be a few roster moves tonight as Erick Fedde comes off of the IL and will start tonight in Seattle. The Washington Nationals mad to move a pitcher off of the roster, and it turned out to be Tyler Clippard who was DFA’d. Manager Dave Martinez already said that Cory Abbott would not stay in the starting rotation, and would move to the bullpen. Also, Tres Barrera was sent back to Triple-A and changed places with Riley Adams. Continue reading
