The Washington Nationals are preparing to start spring training this week pitchers and catchers are set to report to their facility in West Palm Beach, Fla.

Pitchers and catchers will report on Wednesday, with the remaining position players set to report on Feb. 18.

The Nationals will train and play their home games at CACTI Park of the Palm Beaches in West Palm Beach, a facility they share with the Houston Astros.

Washington is looking for its first winning season since 2019 and is building around a core of young talent that includes budding young stars in second baseman Luis Garcia Jr. and shortstop C.J. Abrams. In the outfield, there is rookie Dylan Crews in right field, Jacob Young in center field and James Wood in left field.

The rotation also has young talent that includes MacKenzie Gore and D.J. Herz. The Nats have augmented that youth by signing Michael Soroka, Trevor Williams and Japanese star Shinnosuke Ogasawara.

The Nationals have made limited inroads to augment depth in trades and free agency. Washington traded pitcher Robert Garcia to Texas for first baseman Nathaniel Lowe. The Nationals also signed utility man Amed Rosario.

Washington will play its first spring training game against the Houston Astros on Feb. 22.

Washington will open the regular season at Nationals Park when they host the Philadelphia Phillies on March 27.
