Washington Nationals’ GM and President of Baseball operations Mike Rizzo talked earlier this winter about the club’s effort to reboot their organization from top-to-bottom after a couple rough years following 2019’s World Series win, starting things off with a series of trades at last July 30th’s trade deadline.
In addition to changes to the big league roster, Rizzo said he had plans for the front office and the player development roles within the organization.
“‘We were short on personnel,’” Rizzo told The Washington Post in November, in his attempt to explain his approach to this winter’s hires.
