The Washington Nationals will be facing off against the newest member of the Phillies rotation, Jesus Luzardo. Despite his recent arrival to Philadelphia, Luzardo is a name the Nats are familiar with.
Something many fans forget is that Luzardo was actually drafted by the Nationals. He was the Nats third round pick in 2016 out of Stoneman Douglas High School in Florida. However, Luzardo was not with the organization for long. In 2017 he was part of the package that sent Sean Doolittle and Ryan Madson to DC. It is kind of funny to see Doolittle coaching against a player he was traded for.
