Roki Sasaki’s power splitter should neutralize Washington’s left-handed bats early, and Los Angeles’ offense is still deep enough to roll even if Mookie Betts gets a precautionary day off. Foster Griffin mixes speeds well, but once the lineup turns over the Dodgers’ middle order—Ohtani, Freeman and the red-hot Andy Pages—should string together quality plate appearances and force an early bullpen call. Washington’s relief corps has been overexposed the last two nights and lacks a shutdown right-on-right option for the late innings; expect L.A. to tack on insurance in the seventh and ninth. The Nationals will scratch out runs when Sasaki’s pitch count climbs—CJ Abrams’ aggressiveness and Daylen Lile’s contact skills figure to produce a couple of timely knocks—but sustained rallies are unlikely against a rested Dodgers bullpen anchored by Edwin Díaz. Overall talent gap on the mound and in lineup depth points to a comfortable Dodgers sweep-clincher.

Los Angeles Dodgers — Vijesti

Gavin Stone ne može povećati intenzitet bacanja — bol u desnom ramenu

Stoneov pad čini rotaciju bacača LA tanijom iza Ohtanija (ERA 0,82, 50 K u 7 početaka) i Yamamota (ERA 2,86, 69 K). Razlika od +127 trčanja Dodgersaa im daje marginu greške, no gubitak dubine zbog problema s rukom nakon operacije prije potencijalnog roka zakomplekira fleksibilnost rotacije.

Dodgers se vraćaju u borbi za Zapadnu divisiju

Pobjeda LA-a čuva tempo s omjerom 39-22 i razlikom u bodovima od +127, a osnažena Ohtanijevom ERA od 0,82 i xwOBA od 0,247 u 7 nastupa—istorijskog tempa koje bi trebalo proširiti njihovu prednost u diviziji nad Giants (23-38, -67 razlika).

LAD se poboljšao na 38-21 s rezultatom 8-2 u posljednjih 10 utakmica i razlikom trčanja +129, dok je PHI nakon poraza pao na 30-29 s razlikom -26. Offenzivni izboj Yankees-a protiv boreće se bacačke momčadi bila je rutinska dominacija momčadi s razlikom trčanja +98.

Dodgers pogađaju home run na pobjedu; Brewers pobjeđuju u produžetku

LAD (37-20, +122 razlika trčanja) nastavlja seriju od šest uzastopnih pobjeda s ofenzivnom snagom dok MIL (34-20, +79 razlika trčanja) proširuje na 4 pobjede unatoč tome što radi s rotacijom koju sada nedostaje Quintana (IL od 60 dana, iščašena loktovi) i konkurira bez dubine zamjena.

Hernández: 2 HR, 3 RBI u pobjedu Marlins-a nad Nationals

Hernándezova noć s dva homeruna prekinula je niz od četiri poraza Miamija i donijela je Marlins njihovu prvu pobjedu u pet domacih utakmica (18-15). Bacanje Washingtona dozvolilo je 330 tecaja ove sezone (najgore u NL East), sto čini njihov rekord 31-30 iznenađujuće otpornim s obzirom na omjer pobjeda od 0,508.

Nationals padaju na .500 nakon gubitka od Padresa; Griffin se susreće sa Kingom danas

Okruženje trčanja Washingtona ostaje bizarno—+311 trčanja postignuto, ali -6 razlika u trčanjima zbog 317 dozvoljenih, najgora osnovna učinkovitost u bejzbolu. Griffin (ERA 3,63, WHIP 1,13) susreće se s Kingom (ERA 2,76, WHIP 1,15) u susretu gdje bi San Diego-ova superiorna prevencija trčanja (220 RA u odnosu na 317 WSH) trebala dominirati unatoč napadalnoj moći Nationalsa.

Čak i sa zdravim asiem, pomoćni tim (Valdez na 4,28 ERA, Flaherty na 5,94 ERA) ostaje slabost protiv tima Rays koji vodi AL East na 34-18 (+33 razlika trčanja).

Nationals Stječe Carsona Palmquista od Rockiesa

Palmquist stiže bez dostupne statistike za 2026., odmah je poslan u Triple-A. Taj potez se podudara s plasmanom Kranicka na listu ozljeđenih igrača na 60 dana, što ostavlja Washingtonovu rotaciju ukotvljenu sa Griffinom (3.63 ERA, 6-2) i Cavallin (3.86 ERA, 2-3), dok Irvin, Littell i Mikolas zajedno imaju omjer 3-10 i ERA 5.41.

Jake Irvin napušta utakmicu protiv Atlante zbog ozljede

Irvin odlazi dok WSH suočava Atlantinu vodeću rotaciju lige (ERA 1,89–1,97 od Sale i Eldera). Početni bacač Nationalsa je zabilježio ERA 5,79 i xwOBA 0,367 u 8 pokretanja ove sezone, tako da njegov izostanak možda neće značajno promijeniti dinamiku napadnog susreta.
