As Major League Baseball’s offseason continues to plod along at a snail’s pace despite Spring Training being about a month away, Baseball America released the 2021 preseason edition of its Top 100 Prospects list on Monday morning.
The Washington Nationals are usually no strangers to the top end of this list. From Stephen Strasburg and Bryce Harper to Victor Robles and Juan Soto, there has usually been a strong contingent from South Capitol Street.
However, in recent seasons that presence has dipped with players graduating from prospect status or being traded away for immediate help for the big league team.
