Lile Homers in Rout of the Rockies

The Nats snapped their four game losing streak by trouncing the visiting Rockies 13-3 on Monday night.  Mark & Al have a productive offensive evening to sort through as the lineup combined for thirteen hits despite not getting their first one until the bottom of the 5th.

(08:00) CJ Abrams made a big impact in his return to the leadoff spot as he doubled and stole two bases as the DH.  Abrams is the first 25-25 player for the organization since Alfonso Soriano twenty years ago.

(12:00) When will Abrams actually move to 2B?

(14:30) Lile drove in five runs and hit a 3-run HR in the bottom of the 8th. Lile's OPS is at .705 on the season.

(17:00) Jorbit Vivas must have heard the recent criticism of him on the podcast as he came through with a trio of hits.  

(20:00) Cade Cavalli struck out seven Rockies as he earned the win in his 4th consecutive start. Cavalli is now up to 169 strikeouts on the season and his ERA is 3.21.

(25:00) Erik Tolman tossed another scoreless inning in his 2nd appearance since getting called up.

(29:00) Will the potential work stoppage affect roster decisions in the final month of the season?
