Arizona Diamondbacks at Washington Nationals (2026-07-26). Kohl Drake vs Miles Mikolas at Nationals Park.
Starters — Kohl Drake has a 1.80 ERA, 1.20 WHIP, 5.0 innings, 9.0 K/9, 3.6 BB/9, and 0.0 HR/9. His only listed recent outing came on 2026-07-21, when he worked 5.0 innings and allowed 1 earned run with 5 strikeouts and 2 walks. The sample is very small, but the early profile shows swing-and-miss ability and no home runs allowed yet. Miles Mikolas has a 5.60 ERA, 1.34 WHIP, and 98.0 innings with 4.68 K/9, 1.84 BB/9, and 1.93 HR/9. Over his last three starts, he allowed 3 earned runs in 3.2 innings with 1 strikeout and no walks, then 0 earned runs in 4.0 innings with 0 strikeouts and 1 walk, then 7 earned runs in 6.0 innings with 3 strikeouts and 2 walks. The listed trend is down, and the low strikeout rate paired with a high home run rate is a key concern.
Teams — Arizona enters with a .706 OPS, 472 runs scored, a 4.22 team ERA, and a 1.29 team WHIP. The Diamondbacks are 7-3 over their last 10 games, which points to solid recent form even though their season-long OPS is modest. Washington has a stronger .771 OPS and 574 runs scored, but the pitching staff has a 4.76 ERA and 1.40 WHIP. The Nationals are 5-5 over their last 10 games. This matchup sets Arizona’s better recent momentum and stronger run prevention against Washington’s more productive offense but weaker overall staff numbers.
