## Resource

The Nationals are 3-6 after a brutal Dodgers sweep, and the vibes? Yeah… they’re slipping. But underneath the losses, there’s a team with a dangerous offense and a rising ace in Cade Cavalli. In this extended episode of the Nats Minutecast, we go deep on the bullpen disaster, why CJ Abrams is breaking out, and what this team actually is two weeks into the season.
