Roster Moves
I´ve made a trade to acquire starting pitcher Kevin Gausman from the San Francisco Giants. The Giants received minor leaguer RHP Jackson Stoeckinger. Joe Ross was DFA´d and placed on waivers.

Maybe Voth is not ready for the majors either. He gave up 8 runs and only recorded one out. Realmuto, McCutchen, and Gregorious all recorded homers off Voth. The Phillies scored 9 runs on the first and the game was decided there. A tough loss as all of our bullpen arms saw action and will be probably tired for the rest of the series. Zimmerman and Cabrera had homers.

A good pitching performance by Scherzer and the bullpen helped us steal the second game of the series. Max went just 4 innings in 65 pitches and allowed the Phillies only run of the game. Watson, who had a 1.2 inning relief appearance, was awarded the win. The offense relied on some key hits by Turner, Kieboom, and Kendrick.

Ryan Zimmerman signed a one-year extension worth 1.5M

We cruised through the third inning of the series. All-Star Kevin Gausman had his first appearance in a Nationals uniform and went seven innings allowing just one run in four hits. Trea Turner had a couple of doubles and drove in 4 runs. Victor Robles also had a good game as he went 3 for 5 with a couple of runs batted in.

We were shutout on the last game of the series vs the Phillies. Patrick Corbin had a good game but surrender a 3-run homer to Rhys Hoskins in the fifth inning. Our offense was completely and totally dominated by Zack Wheller who went eight innings.

W, (5-3) @Nationals Park
We took the first game of the home series against the Braves thanks to a great effort by Anibal Sanchez. Anibal threw eigth frames of three-run baseball and recorded his 8th win of the year. Turner and Soto, the 3 and 4 hitters kept raking and were the main players on the offensive side.

Austin Voth last performance before being placed on waivers was a good outing as he went seven innings and allowed just 2 runs. Will Harris gave up the decisive run on the top of the ninth. Turner and Kieboom had a couple of doubles that scored our only 2 runs of the game.

We dropped the last game of this key series against the Braves. Max Scherzer had a quality outing and gave up just 2 runs in six innings. The offense went quiet against a very efficient Braves bullpen.
