WASHINGTON — The San Francisco Giants and Washington Nationals both missed the postseason last year. That's pretty much where the similarities end heading into Friday's NL Division Series opener.

Parker was primed to be a solid starter for the Washington Nationals in 2025 and has regressed from what he showed in 2024. With a 5.12 ERA, it is unclear what his future holds in Washington. In his last start, he threw one of his worst games of the season, allowing eight hits and seven runs in another Washington loss.

After the Padres took down the Nationals during Sunday's matchup, starter Mackenzie Gore acknowledged his poor performance.

The San Francisco Giants were unlikely to have a shot at acquiring Arizona first baseman Josh Naylor at the trade deadline due to being an NL West rival.

The Padres announced that infielder/outfielder Gavin Sheets was activated off the Paternity list, and catcher Luis Campusano was optioned back down to Triple-A El Paso.
