Tommy Milona & Wade LeBlanc: Two Pitchers, Same Path

So similar were the paths Wade LeBlanc and Tommy Milone forged to get here, so congruous the back of their baseball cards, that LeBlanc says “We’re basically the same guy.” It’s an overgeneralization, but one rooted in truth.

Tommy Milone Masters Mets Over Seven Innings As Nationals Sweep

Each time through the past two months that the Nationals have had a "statement win" in which they seem to be clicking on all cylinders and ready to take a step forward and show off their true potential, they have quickly followed with a step back. One of the reasons they haven't been able to build any momentum from these comeback wins, blowout victories or strong pitching performances has been because of a starting pitching staff that entered Wednesday with an MLB-worst 5.37 ERA since the beginning of June.

Nationals Re-Signed Jeremy Hellickson

In accordance with the rules, the Nationals also released starter Jeremy Hellickson, though that was all part of the plan. Rizzo negotiated with Hellickson’s agent, Scott Boras, that the team would release him Saturday, then re-sign him to a minor league deal to avoid paying him the retention bonus. So, a few hours after his first Grapefruit League appearance as a National, Hellickson wasn’t getting any hugs — impressive as his four innings of one-run ball were Friday night.
