Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted January 9, 2021 Posted January 9, 2021 Yeah, I was just about to add that the Nats have a set-enough OF to keep Schwarger off the grass and restricted to the dirt areas around 1B and the batter's box.With Howie Kendrick gone and Ryan Zimmerman (going, going?) gone, they had a need there.

smg58 Old-Timey Member Posted February 3, 2021 Posted February 3, 2021 Wong might have made for an interesting offense/defense platoon with Davis (i.e., McNeil would alternate between third and second), but I don't think I would have gone 2 and 18 with him.
