The Nationals are set to hire Paul Toboni to run their baseball operations, a source told MLB.com's Mark Feinsand on Wednesday. The club has not confirmed the news.

Toboni, currently the Red Sox's assistant general manager, has also served as Boston's VP of amateur scouting and player development as well as their director of amateur scouting.

The Nationals parted ways with former general manager Mike Rizzo in July, ending a 17-year tenure that was the second-longest active run in the Majors.

The Nats entered Wednesday's game against the Braves with a 64-94 record and have not posted a winning record since they won the World Series in 2019.
