Summary

The Nats lost 8-3 to the Brewers on Friday night to start their ten game home stand. Al hosts solo after the Nationals fifth consecutive defeat, which puts them at a season worst 12 games below .500. Jake Irvin pitched into the 6th and was charged with four runs after giving up six hits. Five relievers were needed to cover the final 10 outs and Jose A. Ferrar gave up a pair of runs in less than an inning of work. (06:00) There was more bad news about Cade Cavalli as he has yet to ramp up in West Palm Beach as was previously scheduled. Cavalli underwent Tommy John surgery 16 months ago, but it seems increasingly unlikely he will pitch in the majors this season. (11:00) The offense did briefly overcome an early 3-0 deficit, but did not score vs. the Brewers bullpen. CJ Abrams homered on the two year anniversary of the Juan Soto trade with the Padres that brought Abrams to D.C. (16:00) Al reads a couple of listener submitted emails that have to do with Darnell Coles' job status as hitting coach and also a check in on the state of the Rebuild. (29:00) Jason Prill, the Voice of the Lynchburg Hillcats, gives us a scouting report on Alex Clemmey and Rafael Ramirez Jr. These were two of the three prospects acquired from the Guardians organization in exchange for Lane Thomas.
