With 1933 in full force everywhere else, let’s turn our eyes to Spring Training 2025, even if it’s in the cesspool known as Florida. (My apologies to cesspools). MASN finally announced its Spring Training schedule yesterday, and if you grew up rooting for the Mets or Cardinals before you moved to the DMV… well, you’ll …
Position players report today – tomorrow we find out who’s in the best shape of their lives. We’re still a few more days away before the first spring training game, to be started by MacKenzie Gore, according to MASN. As noted in the comments, Top 100 season continues with FanGraphs issuing its version with Dylan …
Well, it’s here. Pitchers and catchers report today to West Palm Beach. Yay. Like Stevie Wonder in that famous SNL ad, MASN is on the ball for its 2025 Spring Training schedule. But otherwise, Mark Zuckerman has you covered on the 29 pitchers and 28 position players trying to make the club. For us, however, …
The streak of waiting one day too few continues… Yesterday, Keith Law released his Top 20 for the Nats, and let’s just say it differs from MLB Pipeline and Baseball America: Dylan Crews, OF Seaver King, SS Travis Sykora, RHP Brady House, 3B Jarlin Susana, RHP Kevin Bazell, C Alex Clemmey, LHP Cade Cavalli, RHP …
I’ve been waitng for something more substantial than the Nats moving up one spot (from #15 to #14) in Baseball America’s latest organizational rankings for the first post of the month but I may just have to put this short post in to let the search engines people know the site hasn’t gone dark. As …
I’ve actually been waiting to make this post since Tuesday, but the obligatory items from MLB and BA got in the way (hey, that rhymes!). As best as I can tell, this is the earliest they’ve been completed. But that’s not necessarily a good thing. For starters, I used to wait until multiple prospect books …
Yesterday, Baseball America officially released its Top 30 Prospect List, as prospect-ranking season continues… As a system, Washington has fallen to #15 and will likely fall further once BA releases its next update (i.e., once Dylan Crews graduates). This despite including a Rule 5 pickup for the third straight year. This is logically consistent given …
Top 100 season, formerly known as the Hot Stove, resumed yesterday with the release of Keith Law’s Top 100 Prospects for 2025($), which included three Washington Nationals prospects… just not the same three as Baseball America and MLB Pipeline, as Keith Law’s Top 100 prospects were released yesterday. Dylan Crews – 7 Law acknowledges the …
With the release of the 2025 edition, that’s three straight years with multiple players on the MLB Pipeline Top 100 for the Washington Nationals. Alas, it’s SSDL as it’s the same three guys that were on the BA counterpart: Dylan Crews, Travis Sykora, and Jarlin Susana. Crews is ranked #4 in what should be his …
A few quick items to clean house before the next Top 100 list, which I beleive will be the MLB Pipeline today. NATS ANNOUNCE 2025 NON-ROSTER INVITES Among the list, are the following watchlist players: C – Caleb Lomavita, Max Romero Jr. IF – Brady House, Yoyo Morales, Cayden Wallace OF – Daylen Lile, Andrew …
