6/16/25 | Nationals Reach New Low Getting Swept by Marlins, Put Early Fire Sale on Board. The Washington Nationals may have just had the nightmare weekend that sealed their fate for the season, getting swept by the Miami Marlins with all three losses by two runs or fewer. Sunday saw another wasted outing by ace MacKenzie Gore, who posted 6.0 innings with two earned runs and five strikeouts - his record now drops to 3-6 with the loss. CJ Abrams and James Wood combined for nine hits in the series at the top of the order, and the Nationals still couldn't get it done. In this case, "it" refers to not humiliating themselves against the last-place team in their own National League East division. Source: https://www.si.com/mlb/nationals/news/nationals-re... |

6/12/25 | Nationals' MacKenzie Gore joins Clayton Kershaw, Sandy Koufax in incredible MLB history. MacKenzie Gore might be flying under the national radar just a tad, but for those in and around the Nationals, it's clear that he's been an absolute ace on the mound this season.

After Gore's start on Tuesday, he was up to 114 strikeouts on the season through 14 starts. According to X stats expert @JayHayKid, that's the third-highest total in National League history for any pitcher aged 26 or younger. Source: https://www.sportingnews.com/us/mlb/washington-nat... |

It only took one game for the Cubs to bury a ridiculous hot take By Jordan Campbell | Share on Facebook Share on X Copy Article Chicago Cubs v Philadelphia Phillies | Emilee Chinn/GettyImages Share on Facebook Share on X Share on Reddit Copy Article To the casual fan, a quick look over the last week of Chicago Cubs games would lead to the suggestion that the offense, as a whole, is in a slump. While there certainly is some truth to that statement, it also lacks context. The context of Mackenzie Gore, Tarik Skubal, Jack Flaherty, and Zack Wheeler being among the starting pitchers the Cubs faced during that time.

6/09/25 | Four Upcoming Free Agents Washington Nationals Should Monitor This Year. The Washington Nationals are still in a rebuild, but have been more competitive than expected with a young and cobbled together roster. If they continue to show positive signs of growth, now could be the time to consider investing in some major veteran free agents. MacKenzie Gore has taken strides this season and looks to have staff ace material, but Washington should not count out the possibility off adding another established arm for a one-two punch at the top. The Nationals currently have a bottom-half of the league strikeout rate in their starting rotation. Source: https://www.si.com/mlb/nationals/news/four-upcomin... |

5/25/25 | Nationals' MacKenzie Gore chasing MLB history only done 19 times.

Gore has made 11 starts this season, and he has struck out 36.3% of the batters he has faced.

5/23/25 | MacKenzie Gore is Not the Only Nationals Pitcher Finding Their Stride This Season. The Washington Nationals have had a tough start to their 2025 season, putting together a 22-27 record, which is good for fourth in the National League East, ahead of only the Miami Marlins. This is heavily a product of their team being highly reliant on their young core of players, and as they continue to work through the growing pains of the MLB level, the team will still need time to turn things around fully. The team seems to have found a young ace in MacKenzie Gore, who has been outstanding throughout the 2025 campaign and continues to develop his game each start he makes. One of the other starting pitchers in the rotation has been overlooked, however, and that is Jake Irvin. Source: https://www.si.com/mlb/nationals/news/mackenzie-go... |
5/21/25 | Injury to Star Nationals Outfielder Comes at Inopportune Time. The Washington Nationals have used 2025 as another stepping stone in the development of their young core of talent. Pitcher MacKenzie Gore has become one of the preeminent strikeout artists in the game today, while CJ Abrams and James Wood have each started to make names for themselves as power threats at the plate. While those pieces of the young core have taken massive steps forward, the Nationals have waited on one of their top draft picks to do the same. To this point in his career at the Major League level, Dylan Crews has failed to find consistent success. Source: https://www.si.com/mlb/nationals/news/injury-to-st... |

5/16/25 | Orioles injury updates: Tyler O'Neill scratched from lineup vs. Nationals. Brandon Hyde was asked about his lineup Friday against Nationals left-handed pitcher MacKenzie Gore, and the Orioles manager pointed straight to the elephant in the room. “We haven't exactly lit up lefties, I don't know if you've noticed,” Hyde quipped. “We don't have the best numbers against lefties.” If the Orioles are going to turn around their performance against left-handed pitchers (and their season) Friday, they'll have to do so without Tyler O'Neill, one of their highest-paid hitters who was signed this offseason because of his success versus southpaws.

5/16/25 | Nationals Emerging Young Ace Dominating With Two Elite Pitches in Arsenal. The Washington Nationals have to feel good about their outlook when it comes to their starting rotation. A solid trio has emerged at the Major League level with MacKenzie Gore, Jake Irvin and Mitchell Parker. If Cade Cavalli, Josiah Gray and DJ Herz can bounce back from their respective elbow surgeries, it is even more impressive depth to add to the mix. Don't forget the youngsters making their way through the minor league system, such as top prospects Travis Sykora, Jarlin Susana and Alex Clemmey.
