Washington Nationals’ prospect Mitchell Parker got advice from Aaron Barrett...

WASHINGTON – There are several Nationals’ pitchers with Major League experience who worked out this winter in Florida with Cressey Sports Performance.

That list includes Max Scherzer, Patrick Corbin, Brad Hand, and Kyle McGowin, among others, in Palm Beach Gardens.

Mitchell Parker, drafted last year by Washington out of San Jacinto junior college in Texas, spent time at Cressey last winter but due to protocol wasn’t able to be around the veterans that much.

But the pitcher for low Single-A Fredericksburg was able to spend time with veteran reliever Aaron Barrett, who has pitched in 95 games in parts of four seasons with Washington since 2014.
