Nationals' Mike Rizzo says CJ Abrams is 'still our guy'
Briefly

General Manager Mike Rizzo reassures that CJ Abrams still has a future with the Nationals despite being optioned, emphasizing accountability and the player's potential.
Rizzo highlighted that the decision to option Abrams was due to maintaining accountability within the team rather than performance, as Abrams had shown great upside.
Abrams's season reflects the larger struggles of the Nationals, with a strong first half followed by significant decline in the second half, paralleling the team's overall performance.
Both Rizzo and manager Dave Martinez described the situation as an internal issue, indicating a strong relationship with Abrams and confidence in his growth.
