by FLM
Washington Nationals pitcher Patrick Corbin’s season has been a nightmare thus far and the team is hoping a brief rest will lead to a turnaround against the visiting Chicago Cubs.
Corbin is 4-16 with a 7.02 ERA over 23 starts and has two years left on a six-year, $140 million contract. He is 15-39 with a 5.98 ERA since earning the win in Game 7 of the 2019 World Series against the Houston Astros, a series in which he was a key contributor.
The left-hander has struggled mightily as of late. Over his last three starts, he has a 25.41 ERA and has been chased in the first inning twice. The Nationals skipped Corbin’s start the last time through the rotation.
