Nationals pitcher Cade Cavalli dominated the Cubs, retiring the lineup in order through five and carrying a no-hitter into the seventh before Washington broke it open with a five-run fifth highlighted by Abimelec Ortiz’s three-run homer. Chicago managed only two baserunners (Busch’s single and two Swanson walks) as Gausman started strong but faltered in the fifth, sealing a 7-0 win for Washington.
The Cubs roll a lefty-heavy lineup for the series finale at Nationals Park, with Pedro Ramirez starting at second base (batting sixth) to balance Cade Cavalli’s splits, while Ian Happ remains in the lineup at left and Michael Conforto handles DH. The rest of the order features Pete Crow-Armstrong, Seiya Suzuki, Michael Busch, Alex Bregman, Dansby Swanson, and Miguel Amaya.

MLB handed seven-game suspensions to Willson Contreras and Cade Cavalli after a fourth-inning benches-clearing brawl at Fenway, with Miles Mikolas suspended five games and Nate Eaton three; all fines were undisclosed and suspensions begin Friday.

Willson Contreras sparked a benches-clearing scene in Tuesday’s Red Sox-Nationals game by throwing his helmet after being struck out by Cade Cavalli, leading to ejections for Contreras, Red Sox manager Chad Tracy, and Nate Eaton; Cavalli remained in the game, and this followed Contreras’ ejection a day earlier for tapping his helmet after a check-swing strikeout, underscoring Boston’s frustration as they sit near the AL East basement.

With a new manager and GM reshaping the culture, the Nationals open 2026 focused on long‑term growth rather than quick fixes, banking on a budding core led by James Wood and Cade Cavalli and the development of Dylan Crews in Triple‑A, while hopeful signs clash with a projected 100‑loss season and potential midseason trades to accelerate the rebuild.
The Washington Nationals avoided arbitration with right-hander Cade Cavalli by agreeing to a one-year 2026 contract that includes a club option for 2027. The 2026 salary is about $862.5K, and the club option carries a $4M value with a $7,500 buyout, guaranteeing Cavalli roughly $870K overall. The multi-year setup sidesteps arbitration precedent, and Cavalli comes off a 2025 showing (4.25 ERA over ten starts) that suggests mid-rotation potential behind a group that could include MacKenzie Gore, Josiah Gray, Jake Irvin, and others.

Washington Nationals pitcher Cade Cavalli will miss the entire 2023 season after requiring Tommy John surgery for a grade 3 UCL sprain. Cavalli, a top prospect, made his big league debut last August but was sidelined with shoulder inflammation. The Nationals will likely rely on non-roster invitee Chad Kuhl to round out their rotation, with Joan Adon and Cory Abbott as depth options. Manager Davey Martinez is comfortable with the club's existing rotation depth, but the free agent market for additional options is slim.
