AI Summary
The Washington Nationals have promoted 2024 first-round pick Seaver King from Double-A Harrisburg to Triple-A Rochester. King was batting .336 with a .427 OBP and .562 SLG, along with 5 home runs and 5 steals. Previously a shortstop, he has played 5 of his 35 games at second base, which could indicate the Nationals are considering him as a potential future option at the position.
King was batting .336/.427/.562 with five homers and five steals for Harrisburg. Exclusively a shortstop previously, he's played five of his 35 games at second base. If he starts seeing more time at the keystone, that could be a sign that the Nationals plan to give him a look over Nasim Nunez at some point. Shortstop might also be a possibility if they decide to trade CJ Abrams before the deadline, though such a move seems less likely than it did a few months ago.
