"The current Nationals team is experiencing its sixth consecutive season with a sub-.440 record, risking near-collapse similar to the 1950s Washington Senators."
"To compete effectively in Major League Baseball, the Nationals' ownership should consider doubling their coaching and training staff to match competitors."
The Lerner family's decision to retain or sell the Washington Nationals needs to occur soon due to an impending labor-management battle after the 2026 season. Selling the team could yield approximately $2 billion, showing a significant profit. With a sub-.440 record for six seasons, the team approaches a potential collapse. To improve competitiveness, ownership should double its coaching and training staff, aligning with industry standards to foster long-term franchise success.
