The Washington Nationals have finalized their catcher lineup for the 2026 season opener, with Keibert Ruiz starting behind the plate and Drew Milas as the backup. Catcher Harry Ford, who was expected to compete for the position, has been optioned to Triple-A Rochester along with first baseman Abimelik Ortiz and catcher Riley Adams. Ford, who had a promising start with the team, will now focus on building his case in the minors after a brief stint in the majors last year.
