The Washington Nationals were victorious on Wednesday night against their NL East rival New York Mets, setting up an important opportunity for the young ballclub to take the series in the finale on Thursday. The news was broken by Spencer Nusbaum of the Washington Post that the No. 1 prospect in the Nationals organization, and the first overall pick of last month's draft in Eli Willits is slated for his professional debut. Heading to Fredericksburg, he will have an opportunity to play with several other young Nationals prospects and former high draft picks like Luke Dickerson, Ethan Petry, and even touted international prospects like Angel Feliz and Cristhian Vaquero.
