Matt Williams from the Arizona Diamondbacks has also been tossed around in the discussion. He comes into play because of Nationals General Manager Mike Rizzo. Rizzo was the scouting director in Arizona while Williams was a player. Williams has been connected to the Arizona Diamondbacks ever since he became a player there in 1998. He has coached the bases for four seasons and also managed an Arizona Fall League team for a season. He has no major league managerial experience but does have some connections in the Nationals front office.
