• Nasim Nunez is the unlikely hero in the Washington Nationals extra inning win

Just when we thought we figured out who Nasim Nunez was, he threw us a curveball. The light hitting shortstop was a heavy hitter in September, slugging four home runs in what was a massive month for him. Was that a fluke, or will we see more power from the slick 5’8 shortstop? That is […]...2025
