WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - The Nationals' first full-squad workout of 2020 began with an extra-long "Circle of Trust" meeting that at one point featured team massage therapist Patrick Panico's cannonball into the adjacent pool but most importantly featured a hammering home of the overriding message Davey Martinez wants to convey to a club seeking to repeat as World Series champions. "Process. Process. Process," the manager said. "For us, the word 'repeat' doesn't mean anything, except to...

SARASOTA, Fla. - Ryan Mountcastle was grouped again with the outfielders on the stadium field as the Orioles held their second full-squad workout at the Ed Smith Stadium complex. There are no plans to try him at second base, according to manager Brandon Hyde, but he'll also get plenty of reps at the infield corners. "We definitely want to expose him in the outfield," Hyde said. "I just want him to be comfortable out there. He's going to play some outfield during games, so we want to give...
