Cade Cavalli Poised for Nationals Opening Day Starter Role

Cade Cavalli is trending toward being the Washington Nationals' Opening Day starter after a dominant spring. He has added a 'turbo slurve' sweeper and a one-seam sinker to his arsenal, complementing a 97 MPH fastball. Across 6 spring innings, he has allowed just 1 hit and 0 earned runs with 7 strikeouts. Fully healthy after a turbulent Tommy John recovery, Cavalli is being groomed for a breakout season as the team's most talented rotation arm.
