Washington Nationals’ GM Mike Rizzo was clear when he spoke to reporters at the Winter Meetings last week that he was keeping his options open when it comes to the possibility that the Nats will add another second baseman or a utility infielder to the mix for 2019.
“If there was a definite everyday second baseman that we liked that we thought was an upgrade, we would certainly consider that,” Rizzo explained to reporters in Las Vegas.
“If it was more of a kind of a hybrid role, we would consider that. We’ve left ourselves open to a lot of different types of options, a lot of different ways to build the bench and the back of the roster.
