The Nationals beat the Phillies 6-4, but Tuesday was filled with bad news for the organization. Al & Mark react to the announcement that Stephen Strasburg will have season ending surgery. For those not familiar with the procedure, they explain what TOS typically means for pitchers and the long-term ramifications.
(15:15) Trea Turner was pulled from the game in the 1st inning due to a positive COVID-19 test. We hope that he is feeling ok, but also wonder what does this mean for his potential value on the trade market?
(22:22) Victor Robles exited mid at-bat due to lower back tightness. Just how many roster contingency plans does Mike Rizzo need to balance this week?
(26:10) We finally recap the victory, which saw a pair of 3 run HRs early in the game. Brad Hand this time converted the save and Mark explains why he was given the ball in the bottom of the 9th. Plus, an evaluation of Carter Kieboom's rough defensive performance.
(33:10) A review of Erick Fedde's start, which soured in the 5th. Will we see Fedde return to the form he had prior to his oblique injury?
