The Washington Nationals have given you the fan a Valentine’s Day present already. Pitchers and catchers will report to West Palm Beach, Florida around the holiday for lovers to start preparation for the 2018 season.
In the Grapefruit League schedule released Monday afternoon, the Nats will open as the road team at the Ballpark of the Palm Beaches on February 23 against the world champion Houston Astros and finish back in DC on March 27 against the original Washington franchise, the Minnesota Twins.
Hope you love watching the St. Louis Cardinals and Miami Marlins as the Nats play them 13 times in Florida and face the Astros seven.
