Catchers making good progress in early camp work
By Byron Kerr
Nationals catchers are making good progress in early camp, according to Single-A Hagerstown manager Patrick Anderson.
Raudy Read has been working in major league camp while Wilson Ramos recovered from LASIK eye surgery.
Jakson Reetz has battled through a wrist injury from last year and got hit in the jaw with a ball during instructional league in October.
Matt Reistetter and Jorge Tillero have worked a lot in early camp. Tillero has done a nice job calling pitches, while Reistetter is a lefty bat.
Pedro Severino has already played in four games with the Nationals during spring training. Last season, he played in four spring training games and had one at-bat. This season Severino is already 4-for-7 (.571) with two doubles, three runs and an RBI. He has walked once and has not struck out yet.
Anderson said Spencer Kieboom is also doing a good job in the major league camp. Kieboom is on the 40-man roster with Severino, Ramos and Jose Lobaton.
The early camp game schedule begins March 14 and 15 with home and away matchups against Mets early campers.
