Guest: Savannah McCann (MASN, 106.7 The Fan) | Eli Willits Goes #1, Nationals’ New Era, & Inside the Clubhouse Culture | 94

Welcome to Episode 94 of Tablesetters! Today we’re joined by Savannah McCann, one of the sharpest rising voices in baseball media and a trusted presence for Nationals fans across D.C. and beyond.

You’ve seen her on MASN, covering everything from dugout moments to live postgame breakdowns, and you’ve heard her on 106.7 The Fan, guiding listeners through the highs, lows, and turning points of a team in transition. Savannah brings clarity, insight, and connection to every story she covers.

In this episode, we dig into the Nationals’ decision to draft Eli Willits with the #1 overall pick, the organizational philosophy behind it, and how the move was received across the fanbase. We also get Savannah’s thoughts on: – Why the Nats passed on Kade Anderson – The timing of Davey Martinez and Mike Rizzo’s departure – How GM Mike DeBartolo might approach things differently – The rise of James Wood, the evolution of CJ Abrams, and an update on Dylan Crews’ injury – Whether MacKenzie Gore could actually be moved at the deadline – Who else might debut before season’s end, and which lower-level prospects are flying under the radar

Plus: • Savannah’s pick for the most exciting non-Nats rookie call-up • A fun “get to know you” segment covering walk-up songs, favorite stadiums, and off-field passions • Her top two all-time reality shows (yes, she really is a reality TV expert) • And her current World Series prediction now that we’re at the halfway mark
