The loss last night was absolutely devastating, but at this point, the boys are almost used to it. They have bounced back from demoralizing bullpen meltdowns before, and they will try to do it again tonight. We will also see a new arm for the first time in this one.
After being scratched last night, CJ Abrams is good to go in this one. He will be playing shortstop and hitting cleanup. That will move Nasim Nunez to second and Jorbit Vivas to third. Curtis Mead will get the night off after striking out 4 times yesterday. Daylen Lile, Jose Tena and Drew Millas will also be in the lineup. Funky lefty Carson Palmquist will make his Nats debut and he will open for Miles Mikolas.
Unlike Abrams, Kyle Schwarber is not back in the Phillies lineup after missing last night. Alec Bohm will actually move to first base and Bryce Harper will be the DH. Edmundo Sosa will move to third. It is a similar cast of characters as last night for the Phillies. Aaron Nola has had a rough season yet again, and the veteran will take the ball tonight.

Yet again, the Nats have to bounce back from a demoralizing loss. They have shown they are a resilient team, but it would be nice if they did not have to come back from all these gut wrenching bullpen meltdowns. Follow along in the comments down below and let’s go Nats!
