Patrick Corbin took the mound this afternoon winless in four July starts, with a 5.87 ERA, a 4.17 FIP, six walks, 23 Ks, and a .333/.371/.485 line against in 23 IP on the mound this month.
It’s been yet another tough stretch for the 33-year-old left-hander who’s been searching for answers over two-plus seasons now, but still taking the mound every five days, while trying to sort things out and get back to where he was in 2018-19.
“We got to stay positive with him,” Nationals’ skipper Davey Martinez said after Corbin gave up eight hits and five runs in five innings on the mound in Arizona last time out before this afternoon’s outing in LA.
