The early weeks of the 2026 season haven’t answered many long-term questions for the Washington Nationals — yet. That was never really the expectation. What they’ve done, though, is offer a clearer sense of direction. You can start to see where things might be heading, even if the picture isn’t fully formed yet.

The Washington Nationals didn’t get a whole lot of production from the offense this afternoon, but they sure didn’t need more than three runs. The young coaching staff had quite the strategy cooked up this afternoon from a pitching standpoint, and a combination of PJ Poulin, Zack Littell, Mitchell Parker, Gus Varland, and Richard Lovelady executed it to perfection, leading the Nats to the 3-2 victory in today’s salvage game.

The Washington Nationals struggles at their home field continued on Saturday. The team dropped to a 3-11 record at Nationals Park.
Yesterday, the Nats got 6.0 innings of zeroes in the earned run category from starter Foster Griffin. Unfortunately the Nats once again fell due to mistakes. Three runs scored due to an error, and the Nats lost 4-1. This has become a theme for a team that leads MLB in errors (32) and unearned runs (27). The Nats have 28 percent more errors than the next closest team. These are just some of the mistakes we wrote about earlier in the week.

The Washington Nationals haven’t had many big moments in Nationals Park this year. But Foster Griffin has shown he is good at his home stadium also. The Nats are a disappointing 3-11 in Nationals Park this year. That has to change. This is Griffin’s third start at home.

It was a rough one in the District tonight, as the Nationals dropped a 6-1 snoozer to the Milwaukee Brewers in game one of this weekend’s three-game series. The Nats were just outclassed tonight by a Brewers’ pitching attack led by their young ace Jacob Misiorowski, who unfortunately had to exit the game early tonight due to an apparent leg injury, but still managed to hold the Nats to zero hits over his 5.1 dominant innings. Jake Irvin struggled in numerous capacities tonight, but on the scoreboard — it was his defense who made it worse. We’ll go over those throughout this article, but all in all, not a great night to begin the homestand. Let’s get into it.

The Washington Nationals now open up their May calendar after they finished the month of April strong. At one point this past week in Chicago, the team was 5-games under .500 then went 4-1 in their final five games to finish the month of April. The Nats are now 15-17 and enter this series with Milwaukee at Nationals Park after sweeping them in Wisconsin.

The Washington Nationals had a 3-0 lead that they blew, and then fell behind in this game by a score of 4-3. In the 8th inning, CJ Abrams pounded a clutch 2-run homer to notch the win in this series against the Mets.
The team got 5.0 innings of 1-run baseball from the bullpen, and the starter, Miles Mikolas, received some great defense like a James Wood‘s home run robbery off of Juan Soto‘s bat. Later in the game, Wood would dive to rob another ball.

The Washington Nationals have listed Miles Mikolas as their starting pitcher on the lineup card meaning there is no opener unless they change-up things before the game. These are the games where you hope that the Nats have figured something out with this decision.

"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.
