"Washington finished 2025 with a 66-96 record. Ownership fired the old regime and brought in new leadership. The new leader, President of Baseball Operations, Paul Toboni, got rid of over 50 staffers and only retained two coaches from the MLB staff, Sean Doolittle and Gerardo Parra. While Doolittle stayed in his old spot, Parra will work in player development. So many new faces."
"Toboni was the one who pulled the trigger on trading Gore to the Texas Rangers, bringing back a haul that included prospects Harry Ford and Isaac Lyon from Seattle. That kind of move tells you where the organization's head is at. They are building for the future and accumulating young talent with high ceilings rather than trying to squeeze 80 wins out of a middling roster."
The Washington Nationals finished 2025 with a 66-96 record and installed Paul Toboni as President of Baseball Operations, along with GM Anirudh Kilambi and manager Blake Butera. Toboni dismissed over 50 staffers and retained only Sean Doolittle and Gerardo Parra from the MLB coaching staff, with Parra moving to player development. The club traded its best pitcher, MacKenzie Gore, to Texas in a five-for-one deal while acquiring prospects such as Harry Ford and Isaac Lyon, signaling a rebuild centered on high-ceiling youth. Betting markets list the Nationals as 500-1 World Series long shots, and projections place their championship odds near 0.2%.
