As the Washington Nationals head into a big, big offseason... there's one thing we can't forget about. President of Baseball Operations Mike Rizzo is a free agent this offseason, and we can't allow him to walk. Ryan discusses some key moves with Rizzo over the years, and how this could be a huge mistake for the org in the long run to let him walk away. As the season goes on, 2023 is still about the young core of this team. Ryan wants to see more from 1 former top prospect in particular who hasn't improved too much on paper, but don't be discouraged because this time could still come. Lastly, the Nats get set to face Bryce Harper, Trea Turner, and the Philadelphia Phillies with a doubleheader led by Josiah Gray & the rest of the young core.
