Joan Adon’s mechanics a mess in Nationals’ 4-1 loss to Mets…

While the outing overall didn’t look great in the box score, Joan Adon had some impressive stretches in his start against the Los Angeles Angels last week, and he tested himself when he faced the likes of Mike Trout, Shohei Ohtani, Anthony Rendon and the rest of LAA’s hitters.
