Washington Nationals
Washington missed a chance to sweep the Marlins in the fourth game of an extended four-game series that stretched over the Memorial Day holiday.
Max Scherzer went six innings and left with a 2–1 lead but the Nationals made an error in the seventh and an error in the eighth, both leading to an unearned run. Meanwhile, Washington couldn’t score any more than two runs in the fifth on RBIs from the eight and nine batters, including Scherzer, who had an RBI knock.

The offense is only missing Ryan Zimmerman now but it’s a real question if he’ll ever come back and stay in the lineup at this point. Trae Turner is back at the top but he’s only hitting a hair over .200 in about fifty at-bats since returning. He also hasn’t flashed any power yet.
I think Zimmerman will have to come back for Washington to have a chance to make a run but I’m just in wait-and-see mode with the offense. If the bats get hot at any point this season, the Nationals have the capability to run off a serious string of wins.
Atlanta Braves
The Braves beat the Cardinals in a Sunday rubber match and got Monday off to travel home and enjoy the Memorial Day holiday with their families. Atlanta has won nine out of twelve heading into this two-game series against a divisional opponent.
Ender Inciarte should be back from a back problem within the next two or weeks, which means Atlanta will have an excess of qualified outfielders. Austin Riley has to stay in the lineup with his 1.060 OPS and it’s possible he’ll split his time between the outfield and third base, giving Josh Donaldson some rest.

That was supposed to be Johan Camargo’s job but the 25-year-old from Panama hasn’t found a groove yet this season after slashing .272/.349/.457.
It feels like the Braves have to make a deal to loosen up the logjam a bit. Then again, can they be so confident in Donaldson staying healthy? And the rookie continuing to rake? They’re good problems for Atlanta, which is still trailing closely behind Philadelphia in the East.
