Washington Nationals news & notes: Stone Garrett progress + more...
STONE GARRETT STILL BUILDING BACK UP:
Stone Garrett, 28, suffered a season-ending injury (a fractured left fibula) in August of 2023, but the Nationals’ outfielder finished his first season in D.C., after he’d signed as a free agent in late 2022, with a .269/.343/.457 line, 17 doubles, nine homers, 82 strikeouts, and 26 walks over 89 games played and 271 plate appearances.
Garrett rehabbed all winter, but early on in Spring Training, Washington’s manager, Davey Martinez, said he was taking a cautious approach in terms of getting Garrett back out on the field in game action after such a serious injury to his lower leg and ankle.
