Danny Espinosa was drafted by the Washington Nationals in the third round of the 2008 MLB Draft out of Cal State Long Beach. Considered a top 100 prospect in baseball, the Nats pushed Espinosa hard and he responded, performing well in the aggressive assignments they gave him. He made the majors in 2010 as a September call-up and was Washington’s starting shortstop in 2011.
