Cavalli (3-3) picked up the win Tuesday, allowing one run on five hits and two walks over six innings in a 6-3 victory over the Guardians. He struck out seven. The 27-year-old right-hander delivered his third straight quality start and fifth of the season on 87 pitches (61 strikes). Cavalli has been the Nationals' most reliable starter over the last month and a half, giving up three earned runs or fewer in eight straight trips to the mound while posting a 3.27 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 55:9 K:BB through 44 innings. He'll look to keep rolling in his next outing, which lines up to come at home early next week against the Marlins.

Steven Cavalli: Breaking News
Keeps piling up punchouts
Cavalli (2-3) took the loss Thursday against the Mets, allowing two runs on four hits and one walk in seven innings. He struck out nine. The Mets did all their damage in the third inning, scratching across a pair of runs in the frame, but Cavalli cruised otherwise Thursday. The 27-year-old right-hander surrendered no extra-base hits, also fanning at least eight for the fourth time in his past six starts. The 2020 first-rounder is coming into his own a bit in 2026, posting a palatable 3.86 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 61:19 K:BB across 53.2 frames, and Cavalli will be hoping to keep up his recent hot streak in the strikeout department his next time out versus Cleveland.
Fans eight in quality start
Cavalli (2-2) earned the win Saturday against the Orioles, allowing three runs on eight hits and no walks in 6.1 innings. He struck out eight. Cavalli, who tends to keep the ball in the yard, served up a pair of home run for the first time this season Saturday but was effective otherwise. The 27-year-old right-hander attacked the zone for 68 strikes on 96 pitches, logging his third quality start of the year while also fanning at least eight for the third time in his past five starts. Cavalli will be trying to further improve on his 4.05 ERA, 1.54 WHIP and 52:18 K:BB over 46.2 innings in his next scheduled outing against the division-rival Mets.
