Nationals Hire Paul Toboni as Head of Baseball Operations

Jeff Passan reported Washington is “finalizing a deal” to hire Toboni, 35, as head of baseball operations. The former Red Sox assistant GM rose quickly and ran drafts that landed Roman Anthony, Marcelo Mayer, Kristian Campbell, Payton Tolle, and Connelly Early, plus prospects later traded to Chicago in the Garrett Crochet deal. He is one of MLB’s best young executives.
