Nationals' Riley Adams: Snaps slump with homer
Adams went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a second run scored in Friday's 6-5 loss to the Dodgers.
Adams rarely gets much playing time even as a backup catcher. He certainly hasn't hit his way into a larger role -- prior to Friday, he was 0-for-30 with 13 strikeouts over his previous 11 games, with his last hit being a homer May 6 versus the Guardians. The 28-year-old has a .103/.133/.276 slash line with three homers, eight RBI, six runs scored and one double over 21 contests this season, and he currently poses no threat to Keibert Ruiz's playing time.

Nationals' Amed Rosario: Opens scoring with homer
Rosario went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Friday's 6-5 loss to the Dodgers.
Rosario continues to play in a short-side platoon role in the Nationals' infield. His homer Friday was his second in June, but he's gone just 5-for-29 (.172) over 10 games this month. That won't help him push for more playing time in the long run, though he still gets looks against lefties to allow Luis Garcia or Brady House to get rest. Rosario is at a .271/.320/.432 slash line with four homers, 15 RBI, 16 runs scored, one stolen base and seven doubles over 126 plate appearances this season.

Nationals' CJ Abrams: Clubs 10th homer
Abrams went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a walk and two total runs scored in Friday's 6-5 loss to the Dodgers.
Abrams logged his third multi-hit effort in his last four games. The homer was his 10th of the season and his second in June, but he's hitting a strong .294 (20-for-68) this month. The shortstop has also logged six steals over 18 games in June. For the season, he's batting .279 with an .832 OPS, 15 thefts, 24 RBI, 47 runs scored, 15 doubles and two triples over 63 contests.

Nationals' MacKenzie Gore: Struggles against Dodgers
Gore (3-7) allowed six runs (five earned) on seven hits and four walks while striking out four over 5.2 innings, taking the loss Friday versus the Dodgers.
Gore hadn't allowed more than two runs in any of his last six starts, turning in five quality starts in that span. The Dodgers did the bulk of their damage in the third and fourth innings Friday, and Miguel Rojas added a two-run home run to knock Gore from the game in the sixth. Chalk it up as a rough outing against a challenging opponent -- Gore has earned the benefit of the doubt with his consistency this season. He's at a 3.19 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 123:27 K:BB through 93 innings over 16 starts. He'll look to bounce back next week when he faces his former team, the Padres, in a road start.

Nationals' Dylan Crews: Swinging bat
Crews (oblique) began taking light dry swings Thursday, Spencer Nusbaum of The Washington Post reports.
It's still unclear how far away Crews is from resuming field work, but manager Dave Martinez called the outfielder's return to swinging "encouraging." Crews has been on the shelf for nearly a full month due to a strained left oblique and remains without a clear return timeline.

Nationals' Keibert Ruiz: Resting Friday
Ruiz is not in the Nationals' starting lineup against the Dodgers on Friday.
Ruiz -- who went 1-for-12 over his last three starts -- will get a breather for Friday's series opener. Riley Adams will serve behind home plate and bat eighth while catching pitches from Nationals southpaw MacKenzie Gore.

Nationals' Ryan Loutos: Secures first career win
Loutos (1-0) picked up the win Thursday against the Rockies, giving up an unearned run on one hit in the 11th inning. He struck out one.
The rookie right-hander allowed the automatic runner to score on a leadoff single by Michael Toglia, but Loutos prevented any further damage and then fell into his first career MLB win when James Wood walked it off with a two-run homer in the bottom of the 11th. Loutos has been effective in low-leverage spots for the Nationals since being claimed off waivers from the Dodgers earlier in June, posting a 2.25 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 2:2 K:BB in four innings for his new club.

Nationals' Luis Garcia: Bangs out three hits Thursday
Garcia went 3-for-4 with a double in Thursday's extra-innings win over the Rockies.
The knocks didn't produce any offense, but only because James Wood kept homering in front of him to clear the decks. Garcia has been locked in at the plate for over a month, slashing .327/.358/.525 in his last 106 plate appearances with 11 doubles, three homers, 14 runs and 18 RBI. The one blemish on his resume during that stretch has been his performance on the basepaths -- Garcia has stolen only one bag in five attempts during those 27 games after beginning the season with a perfect 6-for-6 showing.

Nationals' Trevor Williams: Limits damage against Rockies
Williams didn't factor into the decision Thursday against Colorado, allowing two runs on eight hits and a walk with six strikeouts over 5.1 innings.
Williams allowed his most hits in a start since May 3, but he did an excellent job preventing runs and notched a third consecutive appearance giving up fewer than three earned runs. The 33-year-old hasn't completed six innings in six of his last seven outings, and he has a 5.13 ERA and a 24:6 K:BB in 33.1 innings during that stretch. On the year, Williams has a 5.54 ERA across 74.2 innings. He's tentatively scheduled to face the Padres next time out.

Nationals' James Wood: Lifts walk-off homer
Wood went 2-for-5 with a pair of two-run home runs during Thursday's 4-3 win over Colorado in 11 innings.
Wood was the lone source of offense for the Nationals Thursday, tagging Chase Dollander for a two-run homer in the fourth frame and delivering a walk-off blast in the 11th off Seth Halvorsen. The 22-year-old outfielder is in the midst of a breakout campaign, having slugged 20 homers and slashing .284/.380/.564 in 329 plate appearances this season. Wood is one of eight players in baseball to reach the 20-homer milestone, and he's launched four round trippers in his last seven outings.

Nationals' Derek Law: Ready for rehab assignment
Law (forearm) will begin a rehab assignment Thursday at Double-A Harrisburg.
Law has been on the shelf all season while recovering from right forearm inflammation and is likely to require several appearances in the minors before the Nationals activate him from the 15-day injured list. The 34-year-old righty was a key piece in the Washington bullpen in 2024, collecting seven wins, 17 holds and one save while logging a 2.60 ERA and 1.18 WHIP in 90 innings over 75 appearances.

Nationals' Mitchell Parker: Delivers quality start in loss
Parker (4-8) took the loss Wednesday against the Rockies, allowing one run on six hits over six innings. He struck out eight.
While the Nats failed to provide enough run support in an eventual 3-1 defeat, it was an impressive outing from Parker, who set a season high in strikeouts while allowing just one run on Michael Toglia's sixth-inning solo homer. It's an encouraging bounce-back effort from Parker, who gave up six runs in only 3.1 innings against the Marlins his last time out. Overall, the left-hander sports a 4.59 ERA with a 1.32 WHIP and 58:31 K:BB across 15 starts (80.1 innings) this season.
