Catch up on the last 24 hours in Nationals news then have a nice weekend doing whatever you do when there’s no baseball ... though there is the AFL championship game on Saturday.
The MLB All-Stars are wrapping up in Japan. Families are beginning to prepare turkeys. It feels like Bryce Harper should sign soon. And yet, no real rumors about Harper have emerged yet, because life is just a waiting game, it seems.
Anyways, here’s the scoop from South Capitol:
The Nationals need starting...
An injury to Howie Kendrick in May led the Washington Nationals to call Juan Soto up from Double-A to make his MLB debut...
Washington Nationals’ GM Mike Rizzo explained the thinking behind calling Juan Soto up from Double-A to the majors when the decision was made back in mid-May, following a season-ending injury to infielder/outfielder Howie Kendrick.
Soto, 19, had struggled through an injury-impacted campaign in 2017, but picked up where he left off when healthy in previous seasons,...
The Washington Nationals will be wearing new uniforms during Spring Training.
The Washington Nationals dropped some heat on a chilly Thursday morning when they revealed their new Spring Training uniforms.
The jersey resembles the Nationals’ latest alternate uniforms they wore during the 2018 regular season.
However, the spring training jersey is white with blue letters instead of blue with red letters.
The hats have a unique style compared to past years, as the Nationals ditched their...

Mets’ ace Jacob deGrom is the 2018 Cy Young award winner after Nationals’ No. 1 starter Max Scherzer took home the award in 2016-2017.
Max Scherzer’s bid for a third straight National League Cy Young ended with a second-place finish in this year’s voting by the Baseball Writers’ Association of America.
Scherzer received just one first-place vote and 29 second-place votes.

Welcome to the bad part of November: when players want to “hang out” with their “families” instead of thinking about important things, like contracts.
Here’s the scoop from South Capitol:
The Nationals-Orioles MASN dispute could finally end this week (WaPo)
The Nationals have spent years waiting for money from MASN. They have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal fees....

Yesterday was not a great day for the Nationals, as Bryce Harper rejected their qualifying offer and Juan Soto lost Rookie of the Year. One would have thought those would have ended after their season ended.
Here’s the news from Nats Park:

Whether or not Max Scherzer wins the NL Cy Young Award won’t change the fact that he’s the best starting pitcher in the game right now.
On Wednesday evening, the Baseball Writers’ Association of America will announce which two pitchers were determined to be the best in their respective leagues over the course of the 2018 season.
In the National League, reigning Cy Young winner Max Scherzer is a finalist alongside Jacob deGrom of the New York Mets and the Philadelphia Phillies’ Aaron...
Juan Soto received some first place votes, but finished second in the voting for the 2018 National League Rookie of the Year.
Washington Nationals’ skipper Davey Martinez was asked in mid-September about the race for the 2018 NL Rookie of the Year, which seemed likely at that point to come down to a battle between Atlanta Braves’ outfielder Ronald Acuña, Jr. and Nats’ outfielder Juan Soto, both of whom he had seen plenty of this season.
“You’re talking about two premier young...
It’s not a surprise. But it’s official. Bryce Harper rejected the 1-year/$17.9M qualifying offer that the Washington Nationals extended last week.
In the least surprising development of the winter, Bryce Harper today declined the 1-year/$17.9M qualifying offer the Washington Nationals made last week, which would have paid the 26-year-old outfielder $3.725M less than he made in 2018, after he and the Nationals avoided going to arbitration, agreeing on a 1-year/$21.625M deal which Cot’s...
While much of the attention of the MLB offseason has been given to the next destinations for Bryce Harper and Manny Machado, there are plenty of other moves that could be made that would feature some of the game’s most exciting talents — who are still under contract. Headline trades can ultimately shape the direction of an offseason as much, if not more, than free agency does. Plenty of big names could be on the move this winter, some of whom could change the course of not only next...
Tonight at 6:00 PM EST we’ll find out if it’s Juan Soto or Ronald Acuña for 2018 NL ROY... sorry, Walker Buehler.
The Baseball Writers’ Association of America will announce the 2018 NL Rookie of the Year winner tonight at 6:00 PM EST on the MLB Network.
The results of the voting, which took place at the end of the regular season, will be made public tonight, though we already know the top vote-getters in the National League were 20-year-old Atlanta Braves’ outfielder Ronald Acuña;...

We took a look Wednesday at some of the early chatter on Bryce Harper.

Some eyebrows raised this evening when it was observed that the White Sox had unveiled a stage set at Chicago’s United Center...
