The Washington Nationals have transitioned from being a high-spending team to focusing on rebuilding over the past three years. Despite their minimal spending during this period, the team's progress in rebuilding has led to calls for increased investment in the upcoming winter. The Nationals are looking to strengthen their roster for the 2025 season by targeting experienced bullpen support, an impactful bat, and a quality starting pitcher. While there are differing views within the organization regarding the potential increase in payroll, the ownership's influence on the budget is crucial, with expectations for an uptick in spending after the 2024 season. With minimal financial commitments and room for improvements, it is anticipated that the team should have the resources to make the necessary additions to the roster and be competitive in the upcoming season
