Good move for Monday, who proved in 2025 that she can be a high-end NWSL striker. Still some unanswered questions as to what happened this season, but if Boston can restore her confidence she'll thrive. Also very good business for the Spirit given how deep the front line is now.

Would it surprise you to know that Jacob Young had an .810 OPS after the All-Star break despite hitting only 2 homers? On the Nationals center fielder’s step-forward season at the plate: natsjournal.com/p/with-major...

FT | 3-2 Whew. That was much harder than it seemed like it was going to be. Questionable defending kept giving Houston chances to equalize, which they took. Good subs from Adrián changed the game and trusted the attack to find a winner—Clara Luvanga and Claudinha connected to do just that.

HT | 1-1 This was a lovely half for the Spirit from an attacking sense. Looked a lot sharper, moved the ball quickly and took 17(!) shots. In this league more than most, you're always vulnerable when you only score once. Poor defending gave a narrow chance and Houston capitalized.

Houston Dash vs. Washington Spirit: Analysis, Difference Makers, Time & How to Watch
After sitting comfortably in second place for the majority of the season, Washington Spirit (14-4-8) are now third (tied on points with Utah in fourth) and head into a match against Houston Dash (8-6-12) that's close to a must win to secure a playoff game at Rowdy Audi. Beyond that, the Spirit are also looking to establish momentum that's been scarce since August.

🚆 New from Green Line Soccer 🚆 It's been a bit since I could really dig into a Spirit game, and recent games have surfaced multiple, intersecting problems. What the Spirit really miss without Leicy Santos, why the solutions haven't worked (yet?), and how they've become a more predictable team:

They're holding up a major escalation in Iran and a crackdown on abortion until after the midterms to limit political damage. To the extent that the last two years have been a right-wing smash-and-grab operation, the next two will be worse.

Three scoreless for Connelly Early on a mere 34 pitches (21 strikes). Fastball was 93-94 mph, right in line with his average pre-injury. Breaking balls were sharp. All in all, that worked out as well as everyone could've hoped.

It isn't exactly a play-in game, but KC v Denver has huge playoff implications. Kicking off in moments on CBS. KC hasn't lost at home in the #NWSL regular season in 29 games / 2+ years. Denver is certainly capable.

Racing Louisville is officially eliminated from #NWSL playoff contention after a 2-0 loss to the San Diego Wave. It was merely mathematical technicalities until this point; the realistic cutoff line of contention is Denver (huge 6-pt game in KC tomorrow). A lot to figure out on and off field in LOU.

In Cade Cavalli, the Nats finally have a cornerstone pitcher in their rotation. But Cavalli alone won’t be enough. If they want to build a true contender, they’ll need to build a formidable pitching staff around him as soon as possible.
thebanner.com
Cade Cavalli is a strong building block. The Nationals have to add more.
ANALYSIS | The reality is the Nationals won’t be playing in October unless they address the glaring weakness that is their pitching staff, whose 4.65 ERA ranks 26th in baseball.
