Podcast appearances and mentions of Dave Martinez

This week on the podcast I talk about the Washington Nationals letting go of GM Mike Rizzo and manager Dave Martinez. 

The Nationals shocked the draft world by selecting 17-year-old Oklahoma high school shortstop Eli Willits with the No. 1 pick — bypassing consensus favorites like LSU ace Kade Anderson and top-ranked prep infielder Ethan Holliday. In a chaotic week that saw GM Mike Rizzo and manager Dave Martinez fired, interim GM Mike DeBartolo claimed the pick was backed by both scouting and analytics. Still, the timing and strategy raise eyebrows. Willits, the youngest No. 1 overall pick in MLB history, has plus speed and glove but limited power projection, making him a high-risk bet in a system desperate for proven offensive upside. The Nationals may save money on his underslot deal, but passing on more polished talent at the top for bonus pool maneuvering feels like a gamble from a franchise in transition — one that could define the next decade, for better or worse.

Anthony Franco joins Darragh McDonald to discuss the site's recent list of the top trade candidates, how the Nationals' underwhelming rebuild led the team to fire Mike Rizzo and Dave Martinez, and whether Spencer Schwellenbach's injury will push the Braves to be full-on sellers. They also talk about how the Yankees slumped while the Blue Jays' win streak rocketed them to first place in the AL East and what each team needs to address at the trade deadline. Listener question topics include how the Mariners and D-Backs could line up on a Josh Naylor trade, if the Rangers should go for it or trade their impending free agents, and what upgrades the Mets should try to make.

Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker are joined by Blue Jays TV play-by-play voice Dan Shulman (3:05) to chat about the contributions across the entire lineup during Toronto's winning streak, Chris Bassitt's performance on the road, where Addison Barger has grown the most, why Nathan Lukes leads the order, how they will split outfield and DH duties between George Springer and Anthony Santander when he comes back, and if Chad Green is within the circle of trust. Then, Barry Svrluga of The Washington Post jumps on (33:07) to discuss the changes with the Nationals' management, the direction of the franchise now, why ownership hasn't sold the team, and Dave Martinez's tenure as the bench boss.The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

The Rooster is back with continued reaction to the Nationals' major front office shake-up, the firings of GM Mike Rizzo and manager Dave Martinez. Chris Russell dives deeper into the decision, acknowledging the constraints placed by the Lerner ownership but pointing to a lack of progress and glaring roster holes as evidence of underperformance. Were Rizzo and Martinez set up to fail, or was it simply time for a change? Chris puts the question to the audience and the reaction is fiery.

On today's Front Page: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says his nation has the opportunity to bring a “great peace” to the Middle East, the Washington Nationals have fired manager Dave Martinez and general manager Mike Rizzo amidst another losing season, and more.

As the Nationals announce the surprising firing of longtime GM Mike Rizzo and manager Dave Martinez amid another struggling season, Craig gets right to the question: what now? Joined by Washington Post's Chelsea Janes, they break down what prompted the shake-up, who's taking the reins under interim leadership, and what this reset means for the No. 1 pick in the upcoming MLB Draft.

The Rooster reacts to the shocking news that the Washington Nationals have fired both GM Mike Rizzo and manager Dave Martinez just a week before the MLB Draft, offering sharp insight into the timing and a rumored contract option that may have influenced the decision. Chris Russell joins to dispute that theory and argues the move could further destabilize the franchise. The Rooster also dissects the Lerner family's statement, criticizing its lack of accountability and highlighting deeper issues within ownership and the roster. With Miguel Cairo named interim manager, the conversation turns to what this signals for the team's direction. Shifting focus, the show covers Terry McLaurin's frustration with stalled contract talks with the Commanders, including trade speculation and comparisons drawn by Russell. The hour wraps with reactions to the Wizards' ongoing roster shakeup and the always-entertaining “Dumb Dumb of the Day” segment.

The Rooster reacts to the bombshell news that the Washington Nationals have fired both their general manager, Mike Rizzo, and manager, Dave Martinez just one week before the MLB Draft. He shares his initial thoughts on the shakeup and discusses the rumored contract option that might have played a role. Joining the conversation, Chris Russell explains why the option doesn't add up and argues that this move could put the Nationals in an even tougher spot. Tune in for sharp insights and a candid breakdown of what this means for the franchise's future.

As the fallout continues from the Nationals' decision to part ways with Dave Martinez and Mike Rizzo, The Rooster turns his focus to the bigger picture. He reads and reacts to the statement from the Lerner family, calling out its lack of accountability. While Martinez and Rizzo certainly had their flaws, ownership and the players failed to rise to the moment when it mattered most. Plus, we break down the news of Miguel Cairo being named interim manager, and what that signals for the direction of the franchise.

In a stunning but perhaps overdue move, the Washington Nationals fired both manager Dave Martinez and general manager Mike Rizzo on Sunday night, bringing an end to one of MLB's longest-running partnerships. Their shared tenure included the franchise's first and only World Series title in 2019, but the years since have been plagued by losing records, failed free agent signings, and stalled development. With the Nats falling to 37–53 and sitting last in the NL East, ownership declared it was time for “a fresh approach and new energy” to lead the team into a new chapter. Mike DeBartolo, Rizzo's longtime assistant, takes over as interim GM, with an interim manager to be named Monday. The timing raised eyebrows, coming just hours after James Wood and MacKenzie Gore were named All-Stars — a rare bright spot in a bleak season. Martinez, who recently clashed with media and players over accountability, finishes with a 500–622 record as the longest-tenured manager in club history. Rizzo, the architect of the 2019 title and several rebuilds, now exits amid criticism over recent failures in scouting, development, and player acquisitions. With the No. 1 overall pick looming and the trade deadline ahead, the Nationals face one of the most pivotal stretches in franchise history — and this house-cleaning signals they plan to face it with new leadership, new voices, and a reset from top to bottom.
