[Andrew Flax @ajflax]

If you wanted any indication of what Toboni sees as this organization’s weakness, see below:

[Citizens of Natstown @CitsofNatstown]

Absolutely insane to end a game with pitch 8 as a called strike.

[Jeff Passan @JeffPassan]

That game cannot end like that. A shame.

[Robert Murray @ByRobertMurray]

The Texas Rangers are acquiring MacKenzie Gore from the Washington Nationals for Gavin Fien, Alejandro Rosario, Abimelec Ortiz, Devin Fitz-Gerald and Yeremy Cabrera, according to sources familiar with the deal.

[Jeff Passan @JeffPassan]

BREAKING: The Washington Nationals are finalizing a deal to hire Blake Butera as manager, sources tell ESPN. Butera, 33, will be the youngest manager in MLB in more than 50 years. In four seasons as a minor league manager in the Rays organization, his teams had a 258-144 record.

Never love hearing “surprise” attached to “Number 1 overall pick”.

[Citizens of Natstown @CitsofNatstown]

Wow

[Jeff Passan @JeffPassan]

BREAKING: The Washington Nationals have fired general manager Mike Rizzo and manager Dave Martinez, sources tell ESPN.

If anyone’s looking to offload a parking pass for the @TheSavBananas tonight, shoot me a message

[Citizens of Natstown @CitsofNatstown]

Completely agree. They let him walk, he didn’t ask to leave.

[Chelsea Janes @chelsea_janes]

I'll say it: I don't get why Nats fans boo Bryce Harper.

[Citizens of Natstown @CitsofNatstown]

Opening day and the MLB app is on fire

[Jeff Passan @JeffPassan]

Now is as good a time as any to remind everyone that the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum in Kansas City (@NLBMuseumKC) exists to tell a deeply important American story -- one that is ultimately about triumph. Our history, good and bad, is all we have. Learning it is our duty.

[Jeff Passan @JeffPassan]

When asked about the reason for the removal of the story on the @DeptofDefense website on Jackie Robinson's military service, Pentagon press secretary John Ullyot said the following in a statement to ESPN.

(The story remains deleted.)

[Citizens of Natstown @CitsofNatstown]

Hasn’t this been the comparison for basically his entire career thus far? Did I hallucinate that?

[The Athletic @TheAthletic]

It always seems sacrilegious to call Juan Soto — or anyone else — a modern-day Ted Williams.

But this is the story where we let you know that it’s not as crazy as you want to believe it is.

@jaysonst on the hitter most comparable to Soto through age 25:

[Mark Zuckerman @MarkZuckerman]

Nationals took RHP Evan Reifert from the Rays in the Rule 5 Draft. 25-year-old reliever had a 1.96 ERA, 0.919 WHIP, 65 strikeouts in 41.1 IP this season in Double-A.

[Washington Nationals @Nationals]

#1 PICK BABY LET'S GOOOOO!!!!!!

[Washington Nationals @Nationals]

#1 pick otw

[Stephen Newman @stephen_newman1]

This seems like the only stance to have (aside from being mad Soto chose the Mets).

The Nats (and 90% of teams) would never offer this much money.

Did the national call really just compare this Dodgers team to then 90’s Yankees?
