Nationals option struggling reliever amid bullpen's continued struggles
"The Nationals' lineup woke up in a very big way in the 8th inning with a trio of homers from James Wood, Brady House, and CJ Abrams, showcasing their offensive potential."
"Righty Andre Granillo has completed 4.1 innings so far for the Nationals and has pitched to a 12.46 ERA and 2.54 WHIP with just 1 strikeout, indicating significant struggles."

However, the bullpen continued to face challenges, particularly with Andre Granillo, who had a poor start with a 12.46 ERA. Granillo was optioned to AAA Rochester, and Paxton Schultz is expected to replace him after performing well in the minors with a 2.45 ERA.
