Washington Nationals Name Miguel Cairo Interim Manager After GM, Manager Firing
The Washington Nationals have fired manager Dave Martinez and general manager Mike Rizzo after a disappointing 37-53 start to the 2025 season, placing them last in the NL East. Miguel Cairo, the team's bench coach and former Reds infielder and coach, was named interim manager, with Nationals Interim General Manager Mike DeBartolo praising Cairo's leadership and energy. Cairo had initially been offered the role and took time to consider it, given his previous position as Martinez's bench coach, but ultimately accepted the interim position. The Nationals hope this managerial change will inject new energy into the team as they face a challenging second half of the season, though they remain far behind in playoff contention. The team also holds the No. 1 overall pick in the upcoming amateur draft, signaling a focus on rebuilding. Fans and analysts remain cautiously optimistic that this fresh approach can help turn around a difficult campaign.
