Willems and Marrero: Hagerstown-Bound in 2007

From the Herald-Mail, Nationals leadership was in Hagerstown, MD yesterday. The article captured several items of interest.

  • Boone said the Nationals are signing minor league free agents to fill the roster at the Triple-A level. It will allow Washington to keep its younger talent lower in the system
  • “We had two first-round picks last year - Chris Marrero and Colton Willems. Both of them will be here next season. Since we gave them a lot of money, there will probably be a lot of executives here to watch them.”
