The Nats dropped to the Cubs 5-1 last night as they got off to a tough start with Mackenzie Gore on the bump, and Ryan continues to notice one key issue with Maxckenzie Gore. Ryan discloses that issue, and while it shouldn't sound any alarms, it certainly is an issue that should be fixed. Ryan discusses that and what the fix is. Dominic nSmith also helped the Nats going 3-3 with a 2B against the Cubs, but we still haven't seen... power. Is it officially time to be concerned over that? Lane Thomas hit his first homerun of the season yesterday, tattooing one dead center field. Ryan discusses why you shouldn't be too hard on Lane Thomas and his lack of power early on in the season.
