We react to the trade rumors surrounding CJ Abrams & MacKenzie Gore.

The 2025 edition of the baseball winter meetings is officially underway in Orlando, Florida, and the Baseball Bar-B-Cast crew is on the scene. This is normally the week when deals start to bloom and big free agents are plucked from the tree. Just last year we saw Juan Soto and the New York Mets agree to a deal, as well as Max Fried joining the New York Yankees, so you never know what might happen.On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman give their thoughts on what might happen at the meetings this year and the things they're looking forward to, including the annual Scott Boras free-agent pitch. They then talk about Jeff Kent being elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame by the Veterans Committee and why it'll be at least five years until Roger Clemens and Barry Bonds possibly get their last shot at enshrinement.Later, Jake and Jordan talk about the Seattle Mariners, Boston Red Sox, Washington Nationals,and Pittsburgh Pirates all making trades with their hopes set on 2026, as well as a few free agents coming off the board. Then they get into the Sonny Gray vs. Yankees drama that has developed following the news that he wasn't happy to join the Yankees in 2017.1:25 – The Opener: 2025 Winter Meetings17:00 – Jeff Kent elected to Hall of Fame24:47 – Around the League: Trades going down42:42 – Free agents signing47:51 – We Need To Talk About: Gray vs. Yankees53:45 – Field Report: Winter League edition Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:

The Washington Nationals have launched a bold organizational reset by handing the managerial job to 33-year-old Blake Butera and empowering new president of baseball operations Paul Toboni to reshape the franchise from the inside out. Butera's age isn't a flaw but a clear signal of the Nationals' direction. His background in the Rays' development-centric system makes him a natural fit for a young roster and a front office that values process, communication, and alignment. His emphasis on relationships, daily habits, and individualized growth suggests the Nationals want a manager who can turn prospects into core players and unite veterans and young talent under one message. At the same time, Toboni's structural overhaul is poised to redefine how the Nationals operate at every level of the organization. From staffing and analytics to scouting philosophy and development pipelines, his approach indicates deep, foundational change rather than superficial adjustments. The shared stage between Toboni and Butera during their introduction highlighted the unified strategy D.C. wants to build. For Nationals fans, the next 6 to 18 months will be the first real test of this new era, as coaching hires, roster moves, and the progress of key prospects reveal whether this cultural and developmental reset becomes the long-term engine that lifts the Washington Nationals back into contention.

New Nationals manager Blake Butera joins G&D LIVE from Nationals Park after being introduced to the DC media.

The Washington Nationals' new head of baseball operations, Paul Toboni, is already making his mark as the offseason ramps up. Speaking at the GM Meetings, Toboni identified three major priorities for reshaping the Nationals — strengthening the starting rotation, addressing needs at first base and catcher, and building a player development culture that drives sustainable success. He emphasized that pitching remains the organization's most pressing need, but noted that roster building will be guided as much by development and structure as by big-ticket acquisitions. Toboni's comments suggest a shift in how the Washington Nationals plan to operate in 2026 and beyond. Rather than chasing expensive free agents, the focus will be on acquiring and cultivating players who fit the Nationals' long-term blueprint. With key staff hires still to come, Toboni's vision centers on blending analytics, scouting, and coaching to maximize internal growth and make smarter, more strategic roster additions. It's a pivotal moment for a team seeking to turn the corner in its rebuild — and Toboni's decisions this winter could define the Nationals' next era. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
