"The Washington Nationals on Wednesday began a sweeping organizational overhaul, a process that included changes to the team's player development and scouting operations, according to multiple people within the organization who spoke on the condition of anonymity to freely discuss the matter. Eddie Longosz, an assistant general manager and vice president of player development, and assistant GM Mark Scialabba were among those let go."
"The moves, the first from new president of baseball operations Paul Toboni, follow another dismal summer that saw the team trudge to the third-worst record in baseball due (in part) to its extensive struggles with drafting and developing talent. The changes come as Toboni attempts to revamp the organization and infuse a fresh perspective. Members of Washington's coaching staff and its front officeentered this offseason facing uncertain futures and were aware of the industry standard: that a shift in leadership often precedes a slew of changes elsewhere."
