The Washington Nationals came into the off-season with nine arbitration-eligible players — and with a few signings, and a a couple of DFA’s, the team is in a position today to move forward with all of their four remaining players who are arb-eligible and will receive tender offers, if they do not agree to firm salaries before that, for the 2024 season.

The Washington Nationals 2024 coaching staff is set!

Posted on November 10, 2023 by Stephen G. "Ghost" Mears

While some optimists could look at areas where the team was good in pitching and hitting, and use a team in a rebuild as an excuse for the deficiencies — then why were other coaches not retained? In actuality, there needed to be changes in the coaching staff, and maybe there were reasons to keep Hickey and Coles. The addition of Miguel Cairo at bench coach is a move that will add a wealth of experience to the coaching staff from both the development and coaching side.
