Summary

The Nationals lost 5-3 in Baltimore for a third consecutive defeat. Al & Mark start with the troubled state of team as they are limping into the trade deadline. Should they sell and if so, who should they sell off? (12:37) Max Scherzer was scratched from his scheduled start due to triceps discomfort. Did any of this have to do with the impending trade deadline? (22:05) Matt Harvey pitched like the New York form of himself, not the current one. Which version of the Nats offense will we see for the remainder of the season? (27:07) Carter Kieboom is back with Washington after Jordy Mercer was placed on the IL. Kieboom did not start, but had two late at bats, including a run scored after being hit by a pitch. Will he be starting or coming off the bench while in the big leagues?
