Bustin’ Loose Baseball

Episode 167, FULL SHOW -- The Nationals avoided the sweep on Sunday, defeating the Phillies 5-1 to take the final game of the first three game series of the season. Grant Paulsen & Tobi Altizer recap the highs and lows from the Pitching Staff, the Lineup and the Defense against the Philadelphia Phillies, and assess where our expectations should be for a bullpen that struggled significantly to start the year; While the offense had it moments in the first series of the season, it was missing performances from some of the core pieces of the lineup, including CJ Abrams, James Wood & Dylan Crews, who all struggled to start the year. Grant & Tobi breakdown the rough starts for the trio. Then, Tobi Altizer caught up with Dylan Crews on Saturday to talk about his first Opening Day experience, the Nationals new City Connect uniforms, and season expectations; Grant makes a declaration about the Nationals newest uniforms that the team debuted over the weekend. Then we preview the first road series of the season as the Nats head to Toronto for a 3-game trip.
