Victor Robles - Knee feeling better Robles' left knee is feeling better, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.
Impact Robles was seen "bouncing around the clubhouse" by Zuckerman, which is obviously a positive sign. The speedy outfielder was diagnosed with a bone bruise in his left knee Wednesday, and tests confirmed there was no structural damage after he had to be carted off the field due to a collision with the outfield wall. Robles is listed as day-to-day and has a good chance to return to the Washington lineup well before the start of the regular season.

Keibert Ruiz - Agrees to long-term extension Ruiz and the Nationals have agreed to an eight-year extension that could be worth up to $50 million, Barry Svrluga of The Washington Post reports.
Impact The contract reportedly includes two club options at the end of the deal. It will buy out two-pre arbitration seasons plus three arbitration years and then three seasons of free agency. The 24-year-old backstop was one of the key players dealt to Washington in the Trea Turner/Max Scherzer blockbuster, and prior to a season-ending groin injury last September, he slashed .251/.313/.360 with seven homers, six steals, 33 runs and 36 RBI through 112 games. Ruiz should be the everyday backstop for the foreseeable future with the Nationals.

Victor Robles - Ultrasound shows bruise Robles' left knee ultrasound has shown only a bruise, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.
Impact The Nationals never seemed too worried about the knee injury Robles suffered Wednesday and now tests have confirmed it's minor. He's considered day-to-day.

Jeremy De La Rosa - Optioned to Double-A De La Rosa was optioned to Double-A Harrisburg by the Nationals on Friday, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.
Impact Double-A will mark the highest level De La Rosa has reached in his young career. The 21-year-old outfield prospect split time last season between Single-A and High-A ball, slashing .280/.358/.436 between the two levels.

Jake Alu - Optioned to Triple-A Alu was optioned to Triple-A Rochester by the Nationals on Friday.
Impact Alu was added to the Nats' 40-man roster this offseason and has impressed this camp with his versatility. The 25-year-old has a good shot to debut at some point in 2023 but will get a little more seasoning first.
MARCH 10 • ROTOWIRE
Cade Cavalli - Shines against Team Israel Cavalli gave up one run on three hits and a walk over three innings while striking out six during Thursday's exhibition against Team Israel.
Impact The young right-hander was making his first start of the spring after two relief appearances in Grapefruit League action, but Cavalli has looked good in any role, posting a composite 12:2 BB:K across six innings. He's ticketed for a spot in the Nationals' Opening day rotation, and while Cavalli's big-league debut lasy year ended quickly due to shoulder trouble, he has the arm talent to be a fantasy asset in his rookie campaign if he can stay healthy.

Victor Robles - Sent for ultrasound on knee Robles was sent Thursday for an ultrasound on his left knee, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.
Impact Robles had to be carted off the field after banging his knee on a hard part of the outfield wall during Wednesday's Grapefruit League game against the Tigers. The initial diagnosis was a knee contusion, and manager Dave Martinez called him day-to-day, but the Nationals want to be sure there is no structural damage in or around the joint.
MARCH 9 • ROTOWIRE
Robert Hassell - Sidelined with new wrist issue Hassell is currently sidelined in Nationals camp with a new wrist injury, Barry Svrluga of the Washington Post reports.
Impact It is apparently unrelated to the right hamate bone fracture that Hassell sustained in the 2022 Arizona Fall League. There is no timetable as to when the 21-year-old top outfield prospect might begin appearing in live games. He had been ticketed for Double-A Harrisburg to open the 2023 regular season.

Victor Robles - Day-to-day with knee contusion Robles was diagnosed Wednesday with a left knee contusion and is considered day-to-day, Bobby Blanco of MASNSports.com reports.
Impact This arrives as great news given that Robles had to be carted away from Wednesday's Grapefruit League game against the Tigers after he collided with a pipe behind the outfield wall at Joker Marchant Stadium. Nationals manager Dave Martinez expressed optimism that the 25-year-old could return to exhibition action before the end of the week.
