    Maikel Franco: Signs in Japan

    Maikel Franco signed with the Tohoku Rakuten Golden Eagles of the Nippon Professional Baseball League on Thursday, Gaijin Baseball reports.Franco has struggled in the majors the last two seasons and was ultimately released by the Nationals late in the 2022 campaign. He'll now head overseas in an attempt to revitalize his career. Given that Franco is 30 years old, he may find any future opportunities in the MLB difficult to come by.

    Nationals' Maikel Franco: Losing playing time

    Maikel Franco is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cubs.Franco is on the bench for the fourth time in seven games and looks to have moved into the No. 2 role at third base behind Ildemaro Vargas. Given the limited defensive flexibility Franco offers in a backup role, he could be in danger of getting designated for assignment if the Washington Nationals need to clear room on the 40-man roster at any point in the final six weeks of the season.

    Nationals' Maikel Franco: Not starting Sunday

    Maikel Franco is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies.Franco has alternated starts at third base with Ildemaro Vargas over the past five games, and that trend will continue Sunday after Franco went 1-for-4 with a strikeout during Saturday's contest. Vargas is 6-for-9 in three games since having his contract selected by Washington on Aug. 1, and Franco's playing time could dwindle further if Vargas continues to play well.

    Nationals' Maikel Franco: Collects first steal of season

    Maikel Franco went 1-for-2 with a run scored and a stolen base in Thursday's loss to the Phillies.The 29-year-old stayed right on schedule in the stolen base department -- Franco's never swiped more than one bag in a season, but he's recorded that one steal in every even-numbered year since 2016 while skipping the odd-numbered years in between. His .598 OPS is the worst mark of his career, however, and he's found himself on the bench for five of the last 11 games as a result. As the Washington Nationals add more young infielders like CJ Abrams to the roster down the stretch, Franco's playing time could dwindle even further.
