Now onto the News, Rumors, and Commentary…
“Holman was the pitching coordinator in player development while Pardo was one of the pitching coaches for the Florida Complex League teams. “At the Major League level, it is about winning,” Holman told Federal Baseball in August. Rice worked in the Angels’ system with Thurman, and Rice hired Holman when they worked in player development with Seattle. Don’t worry, things are going to get better.” Holman filled in as the pitching coach for Harrisburg for a few games after Sam Narron joined the big league staff as a bullpen coach.”

“He’s had a phenomenal year.” “It feels really good,” Soto said of the consideration. With one single, one double, one home run and two walks over five plate appearances in the Nationals’ 7-5 win over the Marlins at loanDepot park, power and patience have been the defining characteristics of Soto’s fourth season in the Major Leagues. What makes Soto’s walk rate even more remarkable is the production he still puts up at the plate. It’s one player.”

““He’s super fast,” Rogers said of Chisholm. “He was making sure that Jazz Chisholm was not going to get on base that night, because he knows I was going to be on it.” Tuesday was the first time Chisholm faced Rogers, but if Rogers locks in a spot in the Nationals’ rotation, this is an NL East matchup that could be fun to watch in the future. “Jazz is a sick player,” Rogers said. On Tuesday, Nationals rookie left-hander Josh Rogers did his best Jazz Chisholm Jr.”
