"Cionel Perez owns a 7.62 ERA in 13 innings thus far. His Baseball Reference WAR relays the subpar performance, as it stands at -0.5. Perez, 30, is a veteran arm whom the Nats brought in for stability. He's been anything but reliable in his short tenure."
"Miles Mikolas has a record of 0-3. Specifically, his start against the Dodgers had fans' tempers ablaze. Since giving up 11 earned runs to last year's World champions, Mikolas has slotted into more of a bulk innings role and hasn't fared much better."
"Keibert Ruiz is quickly turning into one of D.C.'s biggest fiscal failures in recent memory. His combination of performance and expectations has not met the standards set by the organization."
The Nationals are currently 14-17 after a win against the Mets, but several players are underperforming. Cionel Perez has a 7.62 ERA and a -0.5 WAR, failing to provide the stability expected from a veteran. Miles Mikolas, signed after a tough season, has a 0-3 record and a -0.9 WAR, struggling to find success in his new role. Keibert Ruiz is also highlighted as a significant disappointment for the team, contributing to the overall struggles despite some offensive improvements.
