Spring training for the Nationals is focused on solidifying their roster, primarily their pitching and offensive lineup with key players emerging. Starting pitchers Williams and Gore are secured, with Jake Irvin likely taking the next spot based on his performance. The competition for the #5 spot leaves candidates like DJ Herz and Mitchell Parker. In the bullpen, Finnegan, Law, and Ferrer are dependable, while new recruits and fringe players are under scrutiny. Offensively, the lineup seems fixed with familiar names filling vital spots.
When it comes down to it, Spring is about getting ready, both the players and the team, and the team getting ready means figuring out its positions and roster spots.
Among the remaining 4, you have to figure Jake Irvin's age and slight experience edge gives him the next spot, leaving #5 open for DJ Herz, Mitchell Parker, and Shinnosuke.
