As the Washington Nationals enter their last series for the 2022 season, there are a lot of questions about the team and the front office approach for the offseason. MASN's own Dan Kolko sat down with GM and President of Baseball Operations Mike Rizzo and discussed many things ranging from the 2022 season and his approach for the off-season in this video.

One quote from Mike Rizzo from the interview stood out, which is worth noting.

“So, we’re going to be aggressive in the trade pool, in the free agent market, in the trade market, we’re going to look in the international market, any way we can to improve our baseball team and to kind of build on the core group of guys we have in the big leagues now, the guys that will be coming in short order from the minor league system, and to pair them with the right complement of players from the outside via free agency or via the trade market, to fit in with the culture here and to really aid in getting us to the next level in the near future, and that’s to be a world champion again and to go on another 10-11-year run of success.”

There are a lot of questions surrounding the team and will make for a very interesting and hopefully busy off-season for the team.

Some important storylines that we are going to be focusing on:

  1. Ownership
  2. Starting Pitching
  3. What's next for this "re-tool."
