• Talking through the MLB payroll debate, impact on Nationals in DC
    May 29 2026

    This week, the MLB player's association and owners sent their
    first round of proposals to one another. The District Territory crew

    competitive balance and which details could actually have an
    impact on the Nats.

    That, plus unpacking Keibert Ruiz's renaissance behind the plate,
    including details on their player plan meetings, his battle with self
    doubt and how he had looked like one of the best offensive catchers
    in baseball. Also, we preview the Padres-Nationals series as James
    Wood and CJ Abrams face their old organization and the Nationals
    turn to an opener before a starter again.
