Adams made a wild throw on a Conner Capel steal attempt, allowing Capel to go on to third. Many expected the Nationals to move on from the arbitration-eligible Adams after he spent the final five weeks of last season in the majors, but they kept him around to compete with Drew Millas for the backup catcher job. That he's out of options and Millas still has two remaining should give Adams an edge here. However, the Nationals shouldn't be too worried about that, since even if Adams exits the organization, they'd still have Andrew Kinzler in Triple-A as depth.
