Starting lineups: Nats vs. Astros in West Palm Beach

Starting lineups: Nats vs. Astros in West Palm Beach
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - The Nationals have another night game this evening, one of five on the schedule this spring. And this one is worthy of a primetime matchup, because it's Stephen Strasburg versus Justin Verlander. Strasburg makes his third Grapefruit League start, and he has yet to surrender a run in six innings of work. He'll look to continue that run tonight and extend himself deeper into the game. Verlander will be facing a Nationals lineup that doesn't include many big names. With...

Starting lineups: Nats vs. Cardinals in Jupiter

Starting lineups: Nats vs. Cardinals in Jupiter
JUPITER, Fla. - There's nothing at stake this afternoon at Roger Dean Chevrolet Stadium, but fans will be treated to a very nice spring training matchup featuring a whole lot of big names. Max Scherzer makes his fourth start of the spring, and he'll be going up against a Cardinals lineup loaded with regulars. That means Matt Carpenter, Paul Goldschmidt, Marcell Ozuna, José Martínez, Yadier Molina and more. Not a bad test for Scherzer, who struggled a bit in his last outing against the...

Starting lineups: Nats vs. Astros in West Palm Beach
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - It's a quick turnaround for the Nationals, who following last night's 2-1 loss to the Marlins lost an hour due to daylight saving time and now are right back to work today against the Astros. At least they don't have to travel anywhere for this "road" game against their ballpark mates. Jeremy Hellickson gets the start, and he has been very effective so far in two previous outings this spring, allowing one run on three hits over five total innings, striking out...

Starting lineups: Nats vs. Marlins in West Palm Beach (Solís released)

Starting lineups: Nats vs. Marlins in West Palm Beach (Solís released)
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - Hello again from FITTEAM Ballpark of the Palm Beaches. I'm back here for the remainder of the spring. Many thanks to Pete Kerzel for filling in during my mid-camp break. Just arrived at the ballpark and there's already significant news to report: Sammy Solís has been unconditionally released. While this may seem to come out of the blue for many, this really wasn't a complete shock. From the moment the Nationals chose to tender the left-hander a contract over the...

Starting lineups: Nats vs. Cardinals in Jupiter
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - Patrick Corbin, who signed a six-year, $140 million deal with the Nationals in the offseason, has come as advertised. The southpaw makes his third Grapefruit League start this afternoon against the Cardinals in Jupiter, and he's yet to allow an earned run over five innings. In two outings, Corbin has surrendered three hits, hasn't walked a batter and has struck out three. Victor Robles is leading off and playing center field for the Nationals today, with Matt Adams at...

Starting lineups: Nats vs. Mets in West Palm Beach
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - For a spring training game, we've got a pretty nice pitching matchup in today's Grapefruit League battle between the Nationals and Mets at FITTEAM Ballpark of the Palm Beaches. Right-hander Stephen Strasburg makes his second spring start for the Nats and will be opposed by Mets righty Jacob deGrom. Manager Davey Martinez hopes to get Strasburg up and down three times, which should leave him at a pitch count around 50 for today's assignment. In his first spring start...

Starting lineups: Nationals vs. Red Sox in West Palm Beach
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - You'll notice something a little different today about the starting lineup for the Nationals in their game on MASN against the Red Sox. Max Scherzer is pitching. But for the first time this season, he'll also wield a bat in anger, becoming the first Nats pitcher to hit in a game. Up until this point, the Nats have employed a designated hitter while the pitchers concentrated on, well, pitching. Scherzer is no slouch with the bat, slashing .194/.227/.220 for his career....

Starting lineups: Nats vs. Marlins at Jupiter
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - Jeremy Hellickson faces the Marlins this afternoon, his second start of the spring. In his first Grapefruit League outing on Feb. 27 against the Astros, Hellickson went two scoreless innings, allowing a hit, a walk and striking out three. Ryan Zimmerman is back at first base today, and under manager Davey Martinez's plan of playing him every other game, the veteran will get the benefit of tomorrow off and Wednesday's scheduled off-day. A spring training oddity: Both...

Starting lineups: Nats vs. Twins in West Palm Beach (updated)
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - Ryan Zimmerman is in the Nationals lineup today against the Twins, the first time this spring he's played in a Grapefruit League game. He's hitting fourth and playing first base. Zimmerman was supposed to make his debut Wednesday, but was scratched when he came down with a bug that's been making its way through the clubhouse. It took him a couple of days to recover, and he went through drills in camp yesterday to prove that he was fit. It'll be interesting to see how...

Starting lineups: Nats vs. Marlins in Jupiter
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - Stephen Strasburg will make his first Grapefruit League start this afternoon when the Nationals travel up Interstate 95 to nearby Jupiter to face the Marlins. Strasburg is the final member of the Nats' presumed starting rotation to take a spring turn. The lineup for today's game again does not contain first baseman Ryan Zimmerman, who was supposed to play in his first spring exhibition on Wednesday against the Astros at FITTEAM Ballpark of the Palm Beaches. That was...

Starting lineups: Nats vs. Red Sox in Fort Myers
FORT MYERS, Fla. - Hello from jetBlue Park, aka "Fenway South." And we've got a matchup today worthy of the real Fenway Park, with Max Scherzer going up against the Red Sox. It's unconventional for a star pitcher like Scherzer to make such a long road trip (2 1/2 hours each way), but like Patrick Corbin earlier this week in Lake Buena Vista, Scherzer wanted to do it and stay on his regular pitching schedule. So he'll likely go three innings and about 50 pitches, going up against several...

Starting lineups: Nats vs. Astros in West Palm Beach
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - We've had a bit of a strange weather pattern here over the last 24 hours. It absolutely poured last night, for multiple hours, soaking everything in sight. But this morning the sky was bright blue and it looked like it would be a beautiful day. Except there's another system heading this way, and it's forecast to hit the area right around 1 p.m. So that means today's game against the Astros could be jeopardized. The Nationals are preparing as though they'll be able...

Starting lineups: Nats vs. Cardinals in West Palm Beach
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - The Nationals are back home today, facing the same Cardinals team they saw over the weekend in Jupiter. Though this time they'll be going up against Adam Wainwright instead of Michael Wacha. The lineup includes several regulars, including a one-two combo of Trea Turner and Brian Dozier. Davey Martinez said he wants to try to play those two middle infielders together as much as possible this spring, recognizing the need for them to get familiar with each other. Turner...

Starting lineups: Nats vs. Braves in Lake Buena Vista
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. - The Nationals don't make many long spring training trips anymore, not since relocating from remote Viera to more convenient West Palm Beach. But they do still get stuck with a few lengthy bus rides each year, and one of those comes today. It's 2 1/2 hours each way to Walt Disney World, longtime spring home of the Braves - but not for long. Atlanta will be relocating to North Port in Sarasota County on the Gulf Coast next year, all but eliminating Central Florida from...

Starting lineups: Nats vs. Cardinals in Jupiter
JUPITER, Fla. - It's a quick turnaround for the Nationals from last night's Grapefruit League opener to this afternoon's road debut against the Cardinals. Most of the significant names that played last night aren't making the trip to Roger Dean Chevrolet Stadium, but Matt Adams and Adam Eaton will both be in the lineup (though Eaton will be the DH after starting in right field last night). We'll get our first look at the Trea Turner-Brian Dozier double play combo, as well as our first look...

Starting lineups: Nats vs. Astros in West Palm Beach
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - Yes, there's a ballgame being played tonight. At last. The Nationals host the Astros at their shared complex in the Grapefruit League opener for both teams, the first of six head-to-head matchups over the next month. They're going to get to know each other very well. There is a slight difference in the two teams' lineups for tonight's opener. A.J. Hinch doesn't have a whole lot of experience on his lineup card, though there are some top prospects in there. Davey...

Looking at Nationals lineups with and without Harper

Looking at Nationals lineups with and without Harper
As the world waits for Bryce Harper to make his long-awaited decision, the Nationals wait to figure out what exactly their 2019 lineup is going to look like. It's no hyperbole to suggest this lineup would look dramatically different without Harper in it than with him, and not simply because of his large presence in the heart of it all. There are some significant domino effects to Harper's decision that will impact not only who bats in the middle of the lineup but probably the top as well. If...
