Will Dollander Defy the Odds or Fall Short? Inside the High-Stakes Game Ahead
The Nationals are likely to end up as the fourth or fifth spot in the National League East. With the Phillies and Mets probably taking the top two spots and one of them battling for the Wild Card, there may not be much room for Washington to manage their way higher in the standings. The good news for them is that Atlanta has been terrible so maybe they can capitalize on that poor start and find a way to get to third in the division. My entire point here is not that third place is all that relevant, but that’s what the goals need to be for Washington because the playoffs aren’t realistic. Today they send out MacKenzie Gore to the mound in hopes of keeping the Rockies from getting anything going. Gore is 1-2 with a 3.52 ERA for the year and has a 1.26 WHIP. He has been consistent, getting at least five innings in each game, and six innings in three of four, but he has allowed nine earned runs over his past 17 innings as well. Rockies hitters have only seen him 15 times, getting three hits.ÂÂ
