Nationals Fire Dave Martinez, Mike Rizzo
The Washington Nationals made some major moves on Sunday. They've decided to clean house by firing manager Dave Martinez and general manager Mike Rizzo. This decision doesn't come as a huge shock given the performance of the Nationals this season. Coming into Sunday, the Nationals sit in last place in the National League East with a 37-53 record. This team is far from a juggernaut, but should certainly be playing better than a last place ballclub given their players. The good news is, the Nats do have a great young core that is under control for many years to come. Now, the organization needs to put the right people in charge to get the most out of these players. The Nationals haven't announced who will take over as the interim manager yet.
