THE LEAD
Robert Hassell III
Besides the return of Kyle Finnegan to the Nationals [more on that later], the biggest storyline we have observed is the breakout performance of Washington Nationals’ prospect Robert Hassell III during Spring Training. Hassell III has been turning heads both in the outfield and at the plate. Hassell III kicks off spring training with a .500 batting average, going 4-8 with one homerun, five RBI and an ops of 1.404. He has made some impressive plays in the outfield.
