Washington Nationals GM Paul Toboni says the team won’t rest on its 2026 offensive success as it gears up for the offseason. While pitching remains the priority, Toboni hints at pursuing upgrades at left‑handed first base and improving depth behind under‑performing Abimelec Ortiz. Potential targets mentioned include Triston Casas, Kyle Manzardo, Nolan Schanuel, and a possible Dylan Crews trade for a big‑league‑ready first baseman like Sean Keys. A trade of shortstop CJ Abrams would intensify the need for new hitters. The Nats finished 2026 third in runs, OPS and slugging, but Toboni stresses the offense can’t be assumed to repeat, making any moves a key storyline for 2027.
