Abrams' Eventual Switch to 2B Announced Before Loss

Nats Chat

About this episode

The Nats lost 4-1 on Friday night to the Mets, but the major news of the day came during pregame.  Mark (From New York) & Al dive into the fact that CJ Abrams will soon see time at 2B. Abrams leads all of MLB with 19 errors committed at SS.

(05:00) Blake Butera and CJ Abrams seemed to be on different pages in terms of the shift to 2B.

(08:00) This announcement comes one month after Abrams started for the National League in the All-Star Game at SS.

(12:30) Did the Nationals newfound organizational depth at SS play a role in this decision?

(15:00) Does this help or hurt the Nats chances at keeping Abrams long term?

(25:00) What are the short-term options at SS?

(29:00) Why did Daylen Lile lay down a bunt in the 3rd? Lile however did make a beautiful play defensively in RF.

(32:00) Andrew Alvarez gave up a pair of runs as he pitched into the 6th. Alvarez's ERA is at 3.72 after 18 appearances this season.

(36:00) Brad Lord will start on Saturday as he transitions back to the rotation as there is a vacant spot.
