According to MLB Insider, National columnist, FanSided.com reporter Robert Murray, "The Nationals are a possibility for free-agent catcher Yadier Molina. The 38-year-old is drawing interest from multiple teams and Washington."

In October, on the Nats Report, we wondered if "Yadier Molina be a good fit for the Washington Nationals?."

Major League Baseball News announced that the Negro League will now be a part of MLB's official records. From our article: "Addressing what MLB described as a 'long-overdue recognition,'Major League Commissioner Rob Manfred on Wednesday bestowed Major League status upon seven professional Negro Leagues that operated between 1920 and 1948. The decision means that the approximately 3,400 players of the Negro Leagues during this time period are officially considered Major Leaguers, with their stats and records becoming a part of Major League history."
