The New York Court of Appeals has scheduled oral arguments for March 14 in the long-running dispute between the Baltimore Orioles and Washington Nationals over television rights fees. After agreeing in September 2021 to consider the case, the state's highest court said this week that it will hear arguments on the question of “whether courts have the power, after vacating an arbitration award based on 'evident partiality' related to the forum, to order rehearing in a forum other than that provided for in the parties’ arbitration agreement." The Mid-Atlantic Sports Network was established in March 2005 after the Montreal Expos relocated to Washington and became the Nationals, moving into what had been Baltimore’s exclusive broadcast territory since 1972.
Trading Juan Soto (and Josh Bell) to the San Diego Padres at the trade deadline last August, Washington Nationals’ GM Mike Rizzo told reporters at the end of the 2022 campaign, gave the club’s all-in reboot, rebuild, or whatever, a boost with five highly-regarded prospects [CJ Abrams, MacKenzie Gore, Robert Wood, Robert Hassell III, and Jarlin Susana] and the since-released Luke Voit coming back in return.
Right-handed pitcher Wily Peralta, who spent parts of the last two seasons with the Detroit Tigers, has signed a minor-league deal with the Washington Nationals. Peralta, who turns 34 in May, worked exclusively as a reliever for the Tigers in 2022, posting a 2.58 ERA in 38 1/3 innings with 24 walks and 32 strikeouts. He was released in August.
