Today's Morning Briefing was written by Richard.
Frank has your series preview for this three game set in New York against the New York Mets. From the preview: "The Nationals were forced to wait four more days to start playing and the Mets had to wait until April 5th to get started. Besides the initial delay, the Mets have also had to deal with multiple weather issues that caused some cancellations.
"Neither team has really been able to get into a groove and it shows. The Nationals newest offensive additions Kyle Schwarber and Josh Bell have been unable to get back on the great Spring Training path they started before COVID protocols sidelined them for over a week. Both teams need to find some consistency and, hopefully, this series will be the start of that for the Nats "
File this in the good news bin. Yesterday, the Nationals announced that they are going to be working with Josh Bell on creating a adult book club. From the article: "Newly acquired Washington Nationals first baseman Josh Bell and the Washington Nationals announced the formation of the “Josh Bell’s Book Club,” which will be a monthly book club for adults that will be focused on self-improvement."
Brandon takes a closer look at the situational hitting for the Washington Nationals and how it affects the team's performance, and if it is too early in the season, to start to worry.
The Washington Nationals have some great up-and-coming prospects in the minor leagues, and the future looks bright. Here are our interviews with the future players of the Washington Nationals. Catch up on these great episodes since the Nationals have the day off.
Upcoming Episodes: Richard sat down with Washington Nationals super fan "The Rally Mullet" and discussed Nationals baseball, past, current and looking towards the future. Additionally, we will have a special jam packed Series preview episode on Monday afternoon, as we preview the Nationals playing the Toronto Blue Jays. The Nationals don't play the Blue Jays often so we wanted to give you the best insight possible. We will have Mike Wilner from the Toronto Star and Tyson who is the Co-editor and contributor at Jays Journal, a website that covers the Blue Jays,
