And away we go! Welcome to the 2025 Major League Baseball season and the 21st season of Washington Nationals baseball. That’s right, this ballclub now enters its third decade in the District, pretty remarkable for anyone who remembers the three decades this town spent without baseball. The Nats have renewed hopes entering this season, perhaps even

Alright, the time has come. We survived a long, cold winter. We endured through six weeks of spring training. We fretted over transactions made and transactions not made. We thought we knew what the roster would look like, then we had to make last-minute adjustments due to injuries and a few surprises. But there’s no more time to decipher, agonize

Happy Hollidays everyone! The day is finally here: the start of Major League Baseball’s regular season.  The O’s open up their new campaign north of the border in Toronto. With consecutive playoff appearances but no October victories to show for it, Baltimore has something to prove.  An energy and hunger was palpable at spring training. The locker

TORONTO – The games start counting today. And not a moment too soon. No more exhibitions, reentries and extras from minor league camp. The rules aren’t bent.

They have lockers in the visiting clubhouse at Rogers Center and they participated in this afternoon’s workout. However, they didn’t receive confirmations that they’re on the Opening Day roster. Those conversations are on hold. The assu

The Washington Nationals will celebrate Opening Day and the start of their 20th Anniversary celebration on Thursday, March 27, with a 4:05 p.m. matchup versus the Philadelphia Phillies. Hall of Fame sportswriter Thomas Boswell will throw out the ceremonial first pitch; fan-favorite D.C. Washington is set to perform the national anthem; the Gay Men’

Well, just yesterday morning I took a look at the Nationals’ overall roster depth ahead of the regular season starting. I noted the importance of organizational depth as the baseball gods are unpredictable and unforgiving when it comes to injuries. Sure enough, the Nationals announced just over an hour after my post published that left-hander DJ He

Now entering his eighth season as Nationals manager, Davey Martinez knows no team is like any of its predecessors. The 2018 Nats were desperate to get over the October hump, maybe too desperate, and never even got there. The 2019 Nats were much looser, once they reached the depths of 19-31 and decided to just start having fun, all the way to a thri
