With today being Election Day, we decided to form our own Washington Nationals presidential cabinet under Mike Rizzo

Today, all eyes are on Washington D.C, but they aren’t on the Washington Nationals. Instead, everyone focuses on the White House as they head to the polls to vote for the next President of the United States as well as local officials in their community.

Regardless of your political party affiliation, voting is extremely important and everyone should go out there and cast their vote. With that being said, this got me to thinking what a baseball presidential cabinet would look like.

Over the last five years, the Washington Nationals have won three division titles and they have the general manager with the longest tenure of any team in the NL East in Mike Rizzo. Rizzo has built a foundation that has allowed this team to compete for playoff spots year after year.

Even though the Lerner family is the owners of the franchise, we are not going to make them the president for this topic. Instead, Rizzo is going to be the president, which sense because he is already the President of Baseball Operations.

So, if I had the chance to pick the cabinet for Rizzo, here are some of the suggestions I would have for certain departments in the cabinet. As a reminder, you can share your proverbial Washington Nationals presidential cabinet in the comments section below.
