The Los Angeles Dodgers lost the game and the series to the Nationals on Wednesday, making it three losses in the last four series. Landon Knack made his MLB debut and was solid but got zero help from the offense. Knack earned another start though. Gavin Lux struck out two more times and is off to a rough start for the Dodgers. How much leash does he get, and does he deserve it? Lastly, is it time to panic? The Dodgers are in first but haven't looked good for a couple weeks now.

Dodgers Landon Knack made his major league debut today surrendering a leadoff homer to CJ Abrams but he settled down from there throwing 4 perfect innings but he takes the loss cause the Dodgers only managed 5 hits, 3 from Shohei Ohtani, as they lose 2-0

Mookie Betts had five hits, Andy Pages made his MLB debut and the Dodgers beat the Nationals to even the series on Tuesday. The Dodger offense was able to put up six runs led by Betts' big night. Pages got the promotion and will be getting some playing time for the foreseeable future after Jason Heyward's injury setback. What does that mean for others? Lastly, there was a few more roster moves made ahead of Tuesday's game and at least one more coming before Wednesday's game. We break down all the moves for you.

 ON a bullpen day the Dodgers got 5 solid innings from Ryan Yarbrough who gets the win (2-0) Mookie Betts goes 5-5 with 2 doubles and Kike Hernandez gets his first extra base hit of the season a 431 ft round tripper. Dodgers snap a 2 game losing streak with a 6-2 win.

Tyler Glasnow had his first bad start as a Dodger, giving up eight hits and six runs to the Nationals. We found out after the game that he was sick so hopefully that's what the issue was. His bad start came at a tough time for the Dodgers pitching staff as there are a lot of moving parts this week in order to make up for inefficiency and injuries. Shohei Ohtani has started the year bad with runners in scoring position, and Freddie Freeman has just struggled in general for a week or so now. The Dodgers really need them to kick it into gear. Lastly, we saw Ricky Vanasco's MLB debut and should see Landon Knack's debut on Wednesday, along with a bunch of other movement.

Tyler Glasnow was apparently not feeling great tonight when he took the mound. He had a tough time with location giving up 6 runs on 8 hits over 5 innings. Bullpen was good as 2 rookies did not give up a hit over the final 4. Dodgers again struggled with RISP going 1-6. Max Muncy and Teoscar Hernandez each had 2 hits. Nationals down the Dodgers 6-4

The pitching let down the Dodgers in a series loss to the Padres over the weekend. Gavin Stone was great on Saturday but a blown lead and a ton of walks led to losses in the other games. We also learned of an injury to Bobby Miller, an update on Emmet Sheehan and it's leads to questions about the state of the Dodgers pitching for the next few weeks. Lastly, Michael Busch is hitting well for the Cubs and Andy Pages is hitting well in Triple-A. Is it time for Pages to make his way to the majors?

The top 5 hitters in the Dodgers line-up all had a hit Will Smith had 2 and Max Muncy hit a 2-run shot his 4th of the season. But the Pitching staff did not have such a great night walking 14 in all. James Paxton struggled to find the zone late in counts and walked 8 but left the game after 5 with no decision giving up 3 runs on 3 hits. 

After a 2+ hour rain delay Dodgers and Padres get things rolling Mookie Betts knocked in the first run of the game with one of his 3 hits he also had an RBI in the 3 run 6th. Shohei Ohtani's 8 game hitting streak came to an end but he did have a sac fly RBI. Gavin Stone got the win throwing 5 perfect innings finishing with 6 2/3 giving up 2 runs on 5 hits. The bottom of the lineup had 4 hits and 5 runs.
