WASHINGTON – Kyle McGowin grew up on Long Island so it’s not a surprise that he is spending most of his off-season working out in Florida.
But it’s not just the weather that drew the Nationals’ right-hander to the Atlantic Ocean side of the Sunshine State.
McGowin, 28, is working out for the second off-season in a row at the Cressey Sports Performance facility in Jupiter, FL.
Eric Cressey, the president and co-founder, also has a facility in the Boston area.
Other Nationals who have worked out in Jupiter in the past include pitchers Max Scherzer, Patrick Corbin, and Austin Voth.
