The Washington Nationals are assessing their 40-man roster as the offseason begins following the 2026 season. Roster decisions will determine which players are retained, traded, or exposed to waivers as the organization prepares for 2027.
A late-season game on August 29, 2026, at Nationals Park offered a glimpse of the team's young talent. Infielder José Tena scored a run against the Miami Marlins and celebrated with catcher Keibert Ruiz, underscoring the potential core the Nationals may build around.
The front office will now evaluate contract situations, performance data, and organizational depth to finalize the roster ahead of the next season.
