12/21/23	Washington Nationals news & notes: Keibert Ruiz, CS% and more…. Keibert Ruiz, acquired by the Nationals in the Max Scherzer/Trea Turner trade with the Dodgers at the trade deadline in 2021, jumped at the opportunity to sign a long-term extension with Washington when the club made an offer last spring. “But we waited a little bit,” Ruiz laughed. Anointing him the No. 1 backstop in D.C. soon after he was acquired, the Nationals threw the young backstop right into the proverbial fire, bringing him back up to the majors just a month after the deadline. “We brought him up early in his career,” Nationals' GM and President of Baseball Ops Mike Rizzo told reporters in the press conference announcing the extension.

9/03/23	Prospect News: Dynasty Buys Between Now And Next Season. Nationals C Keibert Ruiz: I tried to trade for Ruiz in a two-catcher, 15-teamer where I’m in a tight race for the top, but I sort of didn’t try real hard because I’m solid at catcher, where I have Willson Contreras and Elias Diaz. Solid. Old. Streaky. Probably on the way down. Would’ve probably been smart to try harder. Royals C Freddy Fermin: The Royals have made gestures toward trading Sal Perez this off-season to make room for Fermin, who’s been in the lineup most nights anyway with Perez covering first in lieu of Vinnie Pasquantino and Nick Pratto. The exposure and the grind have chipped away at his once-pristine stat line, but he’s still hitting .284 with a 112 wRC+. That’s a starter in most fantasy leagues.
