@TalkNats With Griffin & other top prospects up, wonder how long we wait for Willis or others if they keep hitting? Next year ot 2 years? Does it speed up of cj gets traded?
English
We detailed how the #Nats would be getting their 7 A-Ball shortstops playing time with 5 at Fredericksburg and 2 at Wilmington. All 7 got on-base safely via walk or hit. Yesterday's standouts were Ronny Cruz 3-5, 4 RBIs and a single shy of a cycle, Luke Dickerson 2-4 with a double, Eli Willits 3 walks, and Angel Feliz 2-5 with a walk and a double.
English
@TalkNats Really need Cavalli, Letell and Griffin to go 5+ to help the pen...dont know what get from irvin and mikolus,not sure at all so need those other 3 to pitch deeper going forward...
English
It deserves a mention that Zack Littell had a great start in his home Nationals debut:
5.0 IP, 1 ER, 4 Hits, 6 K #Natitude
Nationals Communications@NationalsComms
Zack Littell's strikeout of Nolan Gorman in the top of the 2nd inning was the 500th strikeout of his career.
English
@TalkNats IMO every team is going 2 go through this as teams try to figure oylut best approach...if nats don't get better I think we can complain, it is just game 5...
English
@MarkZuckerman So latell is not ready I guess? If not I guess that is why lord went 3 tonight, save the pen for tomorrow....
English
@AlexaDatt @Nationals @Cubs You made it through game 1 with Franny and Danny...lol. Great 2 have u and I guess ur a good luck charm :)
English
The @Nationals score the most runs (10) on Opening Day in team history.
3 HRs, 3 multi-hit games, 7 players with at least 1 hit. 10-4 win vs @Cubs
English

@TalkNats This straight up closer by committee or is it beeter? Need Henry and rutledge to continue to bring spring success to reg season...interesting to learn about the new guys...
English
Here are the 13 relievers still in the mix:
Clayton Beeter
Andre Granillo
Cole Henry
Brad Lord
Griff McGarry
Cionel Pérez
PJ Poulin
Orlando Ribalta
Jackson Rutledge
Paxton Schultz
Drew Smith
Gus Varland
Ken Waldichuk
Talk Nats@TalkNats
The starting rotation seems to be set: Cavalli, Irvin, Griffin, Littell, Mikolas Bullpen is down to 13 relievers w/ 5 more cuts coming. There's still big decisions w/ NRIs like Drew Smith and Cionel Perez who would need roster spots. And do the #Nats keep Rule-5 Griff McGarry?

@TalkNats IF crews stays, what is his leash if he struggles hitting abd then that falls over to his fielding...seeing 3 or more errors this spring training seemed weird...just hope it clicks in sometime in may...wish I knew what is the issue...
English
Let's talk the outfield. There are 6 outfielders still in camp: Wood, Lile, Young, Crews, Wiemer, Franklin. You figure 5 will be kept.
The TV Answer Man: Making Television Easy Again.@TVAnswerMan
@TalkNats Happy to see Gray go down. He needs to build arm strength. Hassell’s demotion would seem to protect Crews from AAA unless someone is infatuated with Joey Wiemer.
English
@TalkNats Any thoughts, but ate the nats games in the evening g more than previous years? Also, any idea when we find out what cable channel i will be able to watch games? Havec90+ years old nats fan that is also waiting...
English
@TalkNats Ok but losing money each year without a world series would show a real terribly run org...can at least say they used all resources to win then covid...

The new @CNBC MLB valuations are live. Overall, a good year for many teams like the future Las Vegas A's in a valuation of nearly $500 million more than the Nats. The Nats valuation stayed the same ($2.05 billion) after a $-17 million loss in 2025 on EBITDA while carrying debt of $553 million per CNBC.

@ByPatForde And now u look at the sunday sports print section, like 4 pages and not much substance...saw an orioles story, no nats story and a few ap type stories...sad what "he" did to the sports section...
English
Great news for some great people and journalists. Given how fast The Athletic and ESPN moved to make these mass hires, I daresay The Washington Post had a pretty talented sports department.

Extremely cool to have my last story for the Washington Post featured by @Longreads.
