| 3/12/25 | Prospect News: Kyren In Paris Renewed For Season Two. Nationals OF Robert Hassell III is slashing .400/.447/.600 with a 15.8 percent strikeout rate and 174 wRC+ through 35 spring plate appearances. He’s been playing a lot of center field and might push Jacob Young, who has a 60 wRC+ through 26 PAs, for the opening day gig. Hassell III has been something of a . . . problem since he came over in the Juan Soto trade, just in terms of on-field outcomes, so there’s a vibes component to this decision. Would feel pretty good for everyone in the front office if Hassell III broke camp and played well early. Source: https://razzball.com/prospect-news-kyren-in-paris-... |
| 2/22/25 | Watch: Washington Nationals Top Prospect Slugs Game-Winning Double. At one point in Saturday's spring training opener with the Houston Astros, the Washington Nationals had a no-hitter going through five innings. After Houston broke that up, the Astros tied the game. In the top of the ninth, with the Nationals as the visiting team at the two teams' shared facility in West Palm Beach, Fla., they had the bases loaded and a player with no Major League experience at the plate in outfielder Robert Hassell III. It wasn't a problem for Hassell, who is considered the No. 12 prospect in the system per Baseball America. He came to the plate against Astros reliever Joey Mancini and put the Nationals in the lead for good with a double to left-center field gap that cleared the bases and put Washington ahead for good, 6-3.

| 11/29/24 | Washington Nationals Prospect Considered Potential Rule 5 Draft Target. The Rule 5 Draft is baseball's way of saying that you can't hang onto prospects forever. Held each December at Major League Baseball's winter meetings, prospects that were left unprotected at the tender deadline can be selected by other teams. In many cases, these are prospects who haven't seen MLB time that could help another team the next season. The Washington Nationals made their moves at the tender deadline, protecting several eligible prospects from selection, including top prospect Robert Hassell III.
