The Nats lost 9-5 to the Blue Jays in Dunedin, FL despite hitting four home runs. Al & Mark discuss Max Scherzer's worst start of the season as he allowed 5 earned runs, including a grand slam crushed by Vlad Guerrero Jr. Why did it seem like Max was uncomfortable all evening? They also dive into Josh Harrison's rough game, between committing a pivotal error and being thrown out on a steal attempt.
(15:53) Josh Bell was 0 for 4 Tuesday with two strikeouts and his current average is .109. Will he be dropped down in the order or will Davey Martinez keep letting him try to hit his way out of the prolonged slump? This leads into more examination of the lineup as Trea Turner homered twice from the lead-off spot, but the lack of offense around him has led to a smaller than should be RBI total.
(31:20) Finally, a preview of Erick Fedde vs. Steven Matz on Wednesday. Where does Fedde stand in the rotation as Jon Lester is expected to join the team soon?
