Washington Nationals manager Blake Butera joins Buster Olney to discuss CJ Abrams leading the All-Star voting for NL shortstops, his team’s offense racking up runs, leadership from his young core and adjusting to life as a new dad. Then, ESPN’s Jesse Rogers stops by to talk about why the Cubs need to loosen up, incoming makeovers for the Giants and Mets, why the White Sox have staying power, the Cardinals continue to amaze and confuse, and if Nick Kurtz is the AL MVP frontrunner with Aaron Judge injured. Later, ESPN injury expert Stephania Bell does a deep dive on hamate bone injuries after José Ramirez and Vinnie Pasquantino get bad news. Finally, Buster answers your questions during Bleacher Tweets.
