General Manager Mike Rizzo now has five assistants. (Toni L. Sandys/The Washington Post)WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — The Washington Nationals made two tweaks to their baseball operations staff on Tuesday, promoting both Mike DeBartolo and Sam Mondry-Cohen to assistant general manager. They will each remain focused in those areas, as their new titles suggest: assistant general manager, baseball operations for DeBartolo; assistant general manager, baseball research and development for Mondry-Cohen. The moves give General Manager Mike Rizzo five assistants, as DeBartolo and Mondry-Cohen join Doug Harris (player personnel), Kris Kline (scouting operations) and Ted Towne (finance). The Nationals had room to promote a new assistant general manager, or two, after Bob Miller did not have his contract renewed following last season.
