After losing three of their last four, the stakes are raised for the Nats tonight. They really need a win to stay in the hunt and avoid falling out of the race. The clutch hitting just has not been there for this group lately. Hopefully that will change tonight.
Blake Butera is making a few adjustments. Jose Tena will be in the lineup as the second baseman, giving Nasim Nunez a day off. Jacob Young is in center, moving Dylan Crews to right and James Wood to DH. Brady House is in there at third, while Harry Ford does the catching. Foster Griffin takes the ball in what could be his last start with the Nats.
The Braves only have a couple changes. Long time Brave Austin Riley is in the lineup at third base. That moves Mauricio Dubon to left field. Joey Bart will do the catching while Drake Baldwin shifts to DH. Bryce Elder has had an up and down season, with more downs lately. However, his last two starts have been better. He is on the mound tonight.
With Foster Griffin on the mound, this is a massive game that could determine what team the lefty is making his next start for. The Nats are 17-4 in Griffin starts, a trend they will look to continue. To do that, they will need to hit with RISP. Follow along in the comments down below and let’s go Nats.

The game starts at (around) 7:00 p.m. Friday, it’s nearly 90 degrees and Truist Park is the place to be as the Braves are taking on the Nationals once more. Will the Braves take the 2-0 lead and at least ensure a split with a win tonight? Will Washington’s bats make Bryce Elder their latest victim? We’re about to find out!

After getting out of the gates after the All-Star break with a strong road trip that saw four wins in six games, the White Sox started to falter. Losing four of five to the Houston Astros and New York Yankees, it looked as if the South Siders were starting to wilt under the pressure. Out of nowhere, the White Sox pulled two miraculous wins in extra innings out of their hat, and found a way to split the series with the Yankees.
Those two wins were absolutely critical and may turn out to be the difference in a tight AL Central that Chicago currently leads by two games. Unfortunately, their work is far from over as they now face off against the best team in the American League, the Tampa Bay Rays.
Just like they have for most of the past decade, the Rays have been one of the more underrated and underappreciated teams in the majors and will pose a real test for the White Sox. While the Rays don’t have an especially potent offense or pitching staff, they do have a 40-16 record at home — by far, the best in baseball. They will look to improve upon this year’s success at Tropicana Field when they throw out Nick Martinez to start tonight’s game.
Much like the Rays, Nick Martinez has flown under the radar this year and there should be much more noise surrounding his Cy Young candidacy. Martinez comes into Friday’s game with a 10-2 record and 2.45 ERA, good for second in the American League and fifth in all of baseball. With just three starts in which he’s allowed more than two earned runs, and never allowing more than three all year, the best way to attack Martinez in his current form is to find a way to elevate his pitch count and get him out of the game as soon as possible.
Unfortunately, that’s incredibly hard to do when Martinez is in the upper echelon of pitchers when it comes to allowing walks, with just 20 in 20 starts this year. He also limits hard-hit balls and is methodical as a pitcher. The one saving grace for the White Sox is that Martinez struggles to strike batters out, totaling just 67 in more than 117 innings of work.
As for the White Sox, it’s another “Fedde Friday”, as Erick Fedde takes the hill. While he hasn’t been great this season, he’s been exactly what you’d expect from a pitcher at the tail end of the rotation. Even his 5-6 record and 4.25 ERA don’t tell the whole story, as Fedde sports a 3-1 record and an ERA of 3.73 over his last seven starts.
To be quite honest, Fedde’s stuff isn’t anything to write home about. He’s been more than serviceable as a fifth starter, but it’s clear the Rays have the edge on the mound tonight. With that in mind, all Fedde needs to do is keep Chicago in the ball game and hope they can find the same late success as they have in their last two games. Although Chicago’s bullpen isn’t exactly the best, either, a battle between the bullpens is their best bet at taking the first game of this series.

Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the MLB. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Brewers fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys.
In this week’s Reacts survey, we asked fans how they’d like to see the Brewers handle Jacob Misiorowski’s workload down the stretch.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, nearly half of fans (47%) said the Brewers should be setting strict pitch counts and limits, while 38% said the team should spread his starts out more. The final 15% voted for the team to continue pitching him every fifth day as normal.
Misiorowski has already tossed 120 innings across 20 starts this season, putting him very close to his previous career-high of 141 1/3 innings reached last year (between Triple-A and MLB). The team has already started to pull back a bit on Misiorowski, as he’s been spaced out a bit between starts and had his pitch counts limited, with just 83 pitches on Sunday and 65 pitches in his previous start.
With the trade deadline on tap, it seems likely the Brewers will look to add another starter, and adding one would solve two problems at once — give some relief to Misiorowski, and add general depth to the rotation with two-plus months to go. Who would you like to see the team go after to help out?

Only one year remains on Steph Curry’s deal with the Golden State Warriors, and speculation is beginning to swirl around the future Hall of Famer’s future with the franchise.
While the two-time MVP has no plans of finishing his career anywhere but the Bay Area, Kalshi’s Steph Curry next team odds aren’t ruling out a potential next chapter.
As we’ve learned in the NBA over the years, Kevin Garnett voice: “ANYTHING IS POSSIBLEEE".
No Time To Panic for Dub Nation: Steph Curry remains the heavy favorite to stay in Golden State at a 94% implied probability, and the 38-year-old has shown no signs of wanting out of the Bay Area or feeling unappreciated (looking at you, Tom Brady). Owner Joe Lacob is facing the balancing act of keeping his veteran core happy while also building for the future, and moving on from a player who delivered four championships and put the organization on the map would be an unprecedented decision.
Taking Talents to South Beach? Although Pat Riley couldn’t bring LeBron James back to Miami, the Heat have already overhauled their roster by making a blockbuster trade for Giannis Antetokounmpo. Considering the 'Greek Freak' and Bam Adebayo aren’t known for their outside shooting, adding Curry would be the perfect blend after dealing away Tyler Herro.
Steph Curry Next Team Odds
Stays with Golden State or Retires | ‘Yes’ 94¢ | 94% Chance
The Golden State Warriors have little incentive to move Stephen Curry. The Warriors control nearly all of their future first-round picks through 2033, giving them flexibility to retool without sacrificing their franchise icon.
Combined with Curry's loyalty, the organization remains committed to keeping him in the Bay Area.
Miami Heat | ‘Yes’ 3¢ | 3% Chance
The Miami Heat's pursuit of Giannis Antetokounmpo has depleted much of its future first-round draft capital, making it difficult to make a blockbuster offer for Curry.
While the Heat remain an attractive destination because of their championship aspirations, assembling a competitive trade package for Curry would be a significant challenge — largely because they already dealt Herro.
Charlotte Hornets | ‘Yes’ 2¢ | 2% Chance
At first glance, seeing a future Hall of Famer wrap up his career with an organization like the Charlotte Hornets seems far-fetched, but our very own Jon Metler breaks down why these odds could accelerate quickly...

Senga hasn’t started a game in over a month, and has exactly one (1) appearance with no earned runs either as a starter or reliever. His 8.85 ERA is a far cry from his stellar 2023 campaign or the start of 2025 before an errant throw landed him on the Injured List. With the expected departure of Peralta, Senga will likely get a few more opportunities to show that he’s got something left in the tank before he enters the fifth year of his contract next season.
Senga will be squaring off against Janson Junk for Miami tonight at Citi Field.
There is still no news regarding Peralta’s landing spot, but there are reportedly many teams involved, including the White Sox, Braves, and Phillies.
Ahead of the game, Cionel Pérez was placed on the 15-day IL, retroactive to July 30, with a left forearm strain. To replace both he and the traded A.J. Minter on the active roster, the Mets have recalled right-handed pitchers Jonathan Pintaro and Xzavion Curry from Triple-A Syracuse.

I was originally going to post this as a reply to DbacksEurope’s comment on the Place Your Bets thread, but I ended up rambling on a bit, so figured I should write it up here instead. Basically, the core was “Thank you AZSnakePit for reminding me that I am terrible in gambling.” Me, too. I don’t do it often, and when I do, expect to lose whatever I wager. It’s the price you pay for the entertainment, like buying a ticket to a baseball game or a movie. Indeed, I think gambling and watching sports are similar endeavors: you’re mostly watching things over which you have no control, and hoping for a particular outcome to take place. The uncertainty is the thrill.
However, personally, there’s a very large social aspect to both. If I gamble, it’s typically along with Mrs. SnakePit. We’ll sit beside each other at a slot machine, taking turns and agonizing over the spin of every reel, celebrating or commiserating as appropriate. Sitting by myself, pushing the button, just isn’t anywhere near as much fun. And the same goes, I find, for watching sports. I go to games with other people. If I’m at home and watching, I’m inevitably on the ‘Pit as well. I can’t remember the last time I watched any sporting event “in isolation”. I know some people watch other teams and game, but me? I’ll just wait for the highlights.
This is not to say there’s a “right” or “wrong” way, of course. But I think that sports and gambling are perhaps tied closer to each other than we’d like to think, in terms of the endorphins they release in our brains. And that may partly be why we now have MLB openly and blatantly touting for these companies. But remember, folks! Any player who gambles threatens the very fabric of baseball! We’ll have more on the topic, after this word from our latest sponsor, Kalshi. “It’s not gambling, it’s a prediction market”.
We now return you to your regularly scheduled Gameday Thread. 🙂 I’ll also embed the Confidence Poll today and tomorrow, in case anyone hasn’t yet voted, what with it being an off-day yesterday!

Happy Friday, everyone! It’s a warm evening in Baltimore as the Orioles and Phillies kick off a big series in what will surely be a rocking crowd filled with both Orioles and Phillies fans.
But first, some news if you missed it. The Orioles have announced that they signed Yennier Cano to a two-year contract extension with a club option for 2029. Those two years are his arbitration years, so this isn’t a big move. Good for them, I guess. The Orioles are weird. Anyway, on to tonight’s game.
Brandon Young is on the mound for the Orioles, sporting a sharp 3.13 ERA. The Orioles are 14-3 in games started by Young this year, which might make him the most valuable player on the team.
For the Phillies, it’ll be righty Andrew Painter on the mound. Painter is a 23-year-old rookie who was Philly’s top prospect coming into the season. He made the team out of spring training and made 12 starts and two relief appearances before he was demoted to Triple-A. His first go-round in the big leagues did not go so well, with a 7.06 ERA and 1.662 WHIP in 14 games. He was sent to the minors on June 17th and has made five starts with a 4.56 ERA. That doesn’t sound great, but he had four very good starts and one very bad one.
If Painter shuts down the Orioles, I know everyone in the comments will register their displeasure about how they rolled over for a guy with a 7 ERA. And while they technically wouldn’t be wrong, it’s worth keeping in mind that Painter is a recent top prospect with just 14 MLB games who was performing better in Triple-A. I would prefer, however, that the Orioles light him up like a Christmas tree and render this entire conversation moot.
The Orioles lineup is your typical vs righties lineup of late, however you choose to feel about that. Coby Mayo is in against the right-handed pitcher, which is fine with me. He has done better against them of late and it’s worth seeing if that’s real, in my opinion.
The Phillies lineup might be filled with aging guys, but it still has a lot of street cred.

After years of searching for better frontcourt play, the Lakers made big changes this offseason.
Gone are Deandre Ayton, Maxi Kleber and Jaxson Hayes. In their replacement, the Lakers took a big swing by trading for Walker Kessler and signing Kevon Looney.
While satisfying the starting center spot is great, the team could use more depth.
In a recent article by Dan Woike in The Athletic, he detailed how the team currently desires to bolster the frontcourt.
Between Looney’s 21 games and the five Kessler played last season, the Lakers are, according to team and league sources, hunting for reinforcement at the center position. But that search won’t be easy. The center market is largely a mess. In addition, the Lakers already have 16 guaranteed contracts and no open roster spots.
Kessler said he’s good to go health-wise, so hopefully his injuries are a thing of the past.
Still, it’d be ideal to have a backup you can rely on in case he misses a game here and there. Looney doesn’t seem ready for that kind of role. He is an older, more limited player. Last season he played just 21 games.
Looney is a solid rebounder and screener, but his offensive production was never great, and it’s declining. With the Pelicans last year, he scored just 2.8 points per game and shot 41.7% from the field.
If the season started now, he’d likely be taking over Hayes’ minutes. It’s hard to imagine Looney can produce at the same level that Hayes did.
Looney playing the Kleber role, as a third-string big who knows how to be a professional, would be a better situation for him.
If the Lakers opt to sign a center from the unrestricted free agent market, Nick Richards and Drew Eubanks remain available.
Richards averaged 5.8 points and 5.1 rebounds last season. However, he was traded to the Bulls midseason and performed well there, averaging 9.4 points and 7.6 rebounds in a larger role.
Eubanks played with the Kings last season and averaged 5.2 points while shooting 59.6% from the field.
Whether via a trade or by signing a player, the goal seems to be for LA to snag another backup center option.And it’s why they continue to look for that reinforcement even with all of their roster spots currently being accounted for.
Given how important the frontcourt is for the Lakers, they should be able to figure out how to improve the depth at that position before the start of the year. The only unknown currently is who it will be.

The Golden State Warriors still need to add some players to fill out their roster, and it seems they’ve narrowed down the candidates. According to a recent report by Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints, the Dubs are considering center Kelly Olynyk, combo guard Brandon Williams, and guard Gabe Vincent for the team’s final three roster spots alongside a pair of internal options (re-signing Gary Payton II or promoted LJ Cryer from his two-way deal). Siegel clarified that “a few other names could emerge.. but the Warriors will be adding at least one more guard.”
“With about an $8 million buffer between their current payroll and the second apron, the Warriors have three open roster spots left,” Siegel wrote. “Sources say Kelly Olynyk, Brandon Williams, Gabe Vincent, and Gary Payton II are all players in consideration for a minimum deal from the Warriors, along with current two-way guard LJ Cryer.”
Olynyk is a veteran stretch-five, who would seemingly replace departed restricted free agent Quinten Post, who signed a one-year, $8 million deal with the Grizzlies (the deal includes multiple team options). In his prime, Olynyk’s size, shooting, and passing abilities seemed like an excellent fit alongside Steph Curry and Draymond Green, but at 35 it’s unclear whether he has enough left in the tank to make a major impact. Last season, Olynyk only played 8.6 minutes per game across 42 contests, averaging just 3.2 points and 1.8 rebounds while shooting 25.5% from three with the Western Conference champion San Antonio Spurs. However, he was much more productive the season prior between the Pelicans and Raptors. He played 20.3 minutes per game, averaging 8.7 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 2.7 assists while making 41.8% of his three-point attempts.
Vincent, 30, is a defense-first guard who emerged as a key role player with the Miami Heat, where he thrived alongside Jimmy Butler in the team’s run to the finals in 2023. He signed a lucrative three-year deal with the Los Angeles Lakers following the trip to the finals and was immediately derailed by injury. Since returning, he has struggled to regain his form. While Vincent has never been an above-average offensive player, he made a career-worst 35.2% of his field-goal attempts last season. Granted, he did make 34.1% of his three-point attempts. He averaged 4.4 points, 1.4 assists, and 1.0 rebound in 16.6 minutes per game (53 appearances between the Lakers and Hawks).
While Olynyk, Vincent, and Payton all fit in the category of “veteran role player probably past their prime,” Williams is undeniably a more volatile potential option. Williams has appeared in just 140 career NBA games over the past five years and was not a rotation player until last in the 2024-25 season with the Dallas Mavericks. Over the past two years, however, Williams has emerged as a productive microwave scorer averaging 11.5 points, 3.4 assists, and 2.5 rebounds in just 19.7 minutes per game (99 games).
Yet, Williams averaging more than 20 points and 5 assists per 36 minutes in each of the past two seasons has not earned him a big pay day because of his limitations defensively and as a shooter. A career 28.0% shooter from three, Williams finished last season 36-155 (23.2%) from behind the arc. Still, Williams’ ability to score and get to the free-throw line remain intriguing. Still only 26, he could be a perfect bench scorer for the Warriors if his shot bounces back next season.
DENVER , CO - MARCH 25: Peyton Watson (8) of the Denver Nuggets reacts to making a corner three pointer during the fourth quarter of the Nuggets' 142-135 win over the Dallas Mavericks at Ball Arena in Denver, Colorado on Wednesday, March 25, 2026.

The Cleveland Cavaliers are firmly in the mix for both Jonathan Kuminga and Peyton Watson. Both forwards would be acquired via a sign-and-trade, with Max Strus and Dennis Schroder as the two players who Cleveland is willing to give up.
Strus ($16.6 million) is on an expiring contract that could be of interest for a team like the Denver Nuggets, who are trying to navigate a hefty payroll. Absorbing Strus, gaining his talents for a season, and then not having to pay him long-term is a benefit.
Michael Scotto of HoopsHype says the Cavs have expanded their search for a wing by becoming more involved in Watson’s situation in Denver.
“The Cavaliers have recently called to express interest in a sign-and-trade for Denver Nuggets restricted free-agent forward Peyton Watson, league sources told HoopsHype. The newfound interest in Watson comes on the heels of Cleveland also being in the mix for free agent forward Jonathan Kuminga in sign-and-trade discussions.”
Watson, an athletic 23-year-old forward, would fill one of Cleveland’s biggest needs. He has strong potential as a 3-and-D forward. He averaged 14.3 points per game last season on above 40% three-point shooting. That’s music to our ears.
Denver is reportedly asking for one notable player and at least one first-round pick for Watson. To this point, no suitor has been willing to offer a first-round pick to Denver. The Cavs have a 2031 pick they could put on the table.
If it were up to me, that’s a price worth paying.
Schroder ($14.8 million) still has another year left on his deal after this, worth $15 million. That’s an obstacle for a player who isn’t as highly valued around the league. Backup guards, especially undersized ones, aren’t garnering that much interest in today’s NBA. Schroder is still a helpful contributor nonetheless.
Cleveland has also shown interest in Atlanta’s Kuminga for most of the summer. The Cavs would dump either Strus or Schroder to make the deal financially possible. There haven’t been many updates on this front other than Atlanta still searching for a way to retain Kuminga despite interest from other teams.
