The Nationals have had a red hot start to Spring Training. They have won four games and tied once so far in the Grapefruit League. The Nats will look to keep that up as they travel to Tampa to take on the Yankees. This is a long trip for Spring Training but multiple regulars will be in the lineup.
CJ Abrams, Dylan Crews and Keibert Ruiz are the biggest names in the lineup. Honestly, the lineup looks similar to the one the Nats threw out on Monday. Trade acquisition Abimelec Ortiz will be at first base as he tries to secure an Opening Day roster spot. Andrew Alvarez will be making his first start of the spring. He was impressive in a few starts in September.
We will not be seeing Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton or most of the other famous Bronx Bombers. However, notable names like Ben Rice and Jasson Dominguez will be in the lineup. There will be a couple of former Nats in the lineup as well, with Amed Rosario and Paul DeJong featuring for the Yankees. Ryan Weathers, who they acquired from the Marlins will be on the mound.

The Nats have not been on TV since the first game of Spring Training, so it will be nice to have them back. They have been performing well so far this spring. Obviously these games do not count, but it is nice to see them securing curly W’s. Interested to see what Andrew Alvarez has in store tonight. Follow along down below and let’s go Nats!
