While the Nationals are 11-6 in Grapefruit League play, the offense has been mostly quiet. The boys will look to change that today in a showdown against the Cardinals. This lineup is pretty close to what I expect the Opening Day lineup to be, so I am excited to see the big guns in action.
The Nats have been trying players at different positions throughout the spring, and today is no different. Dylan Crews is out in left field, a position he has never played at the big league level. Luis Garcia Jr. will get more work at first base, while Daylen Lile DH’s this afternoon. Miles Mikolas will be starting against his old club this afternoon.
The Cardinals are also rolling out a pretty strong lineup. Masyn Winn, JJ Wetherholt, Alec Burleson and Nolan Gorman all feature. Wetherholt is one of the top prospects in the game and looks like he will win a big league job out of camp. He has performed very well this spring. Hard throwing Richard Fitts will be on the mound for the Cardinals. They acquired him from the Red Sox this offseason in the Sonny Gray deal.

The Nats have dropped their last two games, so they will look to get back on track this afternoon. Hopefully Miles Mikolas can perform well in this revenge game of sorts. I also want to see more life from the offense. Follow along in the comments down below and let’s go Nats!
