Washington Nationals extend GM Mike Rizzo, manager Dave Martinez through '23
WASHINGTON -- Dave Martinez and Mike Rizzo are signed through the 2023 season after the Washington Nationals exercised their contract options for the World Series-winning manager and GM.
Managing principal owner Mark Lerner announced the moves Saturday before the team's 80th game of a season that has already included 50 losses. Martinez and Rizzo are now overseeing a rebuilding effort after helping the Nationals win their first championship in 2019.
"I'm just really happy that I'll be here and I get to see this thing through," Martinez said. "This my home. I love it here. I love the people I work with."
