One of the most significant injuries for the Nationals in 2024 was to their young star pitcher, MacKenzie Gore, who missed time due to a shoulder strain. Gore was one of the key pieces in the Nationals’ starting rotation, and his absence created uncertainty in their pitching matchups. 

Without Gore, the Nationals struggled to find consistency on the mound, which had a direct effect on betting lines, particularly in games where the team had to rely on less experienced pitchers. Bettors needed to account for Gore’s absence when considering moneyline and total bets for Nationals’ games.

Additionally, the Nationals lost Josiah Gray, another promising arm in their rotation, for part of the season due to elbow soreness. Gray’s absence further weakened the Nationals’ pitching staff, putting more pressure on their bullpen and increasing the variability in their performance. Bettors following the Nationals needed to adjust their expectations, as games where Gray was missing often led to shifts in run totals and betting odds.

Offensively, the Nationals were affected by injuries to CJ Abrams, their talented shortstop, who missed multiple games with a hamstring strain. Abrams’ speed and offensive potential were key components of the Nationals’ lineup, and his absence left a hole in their batting order. For bettors, the absence of Abrams meant a decrease in the team’s ability to produce runs, which impacted betting on run totals and game outcomes.

Overall, the injuries to Gore, Gray, and Abrams had a significant impact on the Nationals’ 2024 season. Bettors needed to closely monitor these injury reports, as the absence of key players often led to shifts in betting lines and created opportunities for adjusted strategies.
