At the end of 2020, we outlined five big picture storylines that Nationals fans need to focus on this year. While some of the storylines are the same, it is worth taking a closer look at them now that Mike Rizzo has made some moves. Here are some of the stories that we will be paying attention to during Spring Training and into Opening Day. One important note, these storylines aren't ranked in order of importance, but rather just some overall thoughts.
Steven Mears from TalkNats.com broke some news about Carter Kieboom yesterday and could explain a lot about Kieboom's performance during the 2020 season.
According to Mears, "A #Nats source told us on a condition of anonymity that Carter Kieboom played on what was thought to be a strained groin during the 2020 season and it turned out he was playing with a GROIN TEAR."
There was only one other Major League Baseball team that was more active during the offseason than the New York Mets, and it was the San Diego Padres.
