Cairo Loses Debut as Interim Skipper


Listen Later

Tuesday marked a new era for the franchise, at least in the interim.  Mark (From St. Louis) & Al examine the pregame comments by Miguel Cairo & Mike DeBartolo.  Cairo was elevated from Bench Coach and was emotional when discussing his long time friend Davey Martinez. The Nationals lost his debut 4-2 at the Cardinals after a lengthy rain delay.

(05:10) DeBartolo made it clear that the organization will be revamping how it uses data and technology while he is in charge.  He has a busy first month on the job as the Draft is this weekend and the Trade Deadline is at the end of July.

(17:10) Addressing the elephant in the GM room.... what to do with MacKenzie Gore?

(22:30) Cairo has been an interim manager before as he took over the Chicago White Sox in the final few months of the 2022 season.  Among the minor changes Cairo made, Bob Henley will return to D.C. as a MLB Field Coordinator.

(26:20) James Wood nonchalantly made a leaping grab over the LF fence to rob the Cardinals of a homer.

(31:00) Jake Irvin took the loss as he allowed four St. Louis runs in six innings of work.  Mark mentions that it was another instance of Irvin showing declining velocity on the mound.

(32:45) Keibert Ruiz was moved back to the 7-Day Concussion IL and Drew Millas returned from AAA-Rochester.
