The Washington Nationals have kicked off their Spring Training at CACTI Park, marking the team's 20th anniversary, which is celebrated by involving various alumni as guest instructors, including notable former players like Ryan Zimmerman. While the young core leads the focus, general manager Mike Rizzo emphasizes the need for these prospects to mature into stars. A key topic of discussion is the absence of a third base upgrade, and it remains to be seen whether additional free agent signings will be made to enhance the team's performance.
You have to do what you have to do to sustain greatness. ... by having a core group of guys who will be with you through those years. ... When your [prospect] stars become [MLB] stars - that's when you take off.
With a 20-year history, the Nationals has seen its share of alumni visiting at Spring Training - but nothing like this line-up. We are talking about World Series Champs, All-Stars, Silver Slugger Award winners.
