FP Santangelo announced he will not be returning to the Nationals broadcasts on MASN for the 2022 season.
Santangelo had been the color analyst for the Nationals on MASN since 2011. He missed two months last season following an investigation by MLB into sexual misconduct allegations against him. However, he returned after the investigation was deemed inconclusive.
MASN said in a statement they are working with the Nationals to pick a replacement for Santangelo.
Santangelo said this is not a goodbye to DC and he will provide updates soon on his future.
Nationals’ play-by-play announcer Bob Carpenter is returning, according to Britt Ghiroli of The Athletic. Carpenter has two years remaining on his contract with MASN.
This is the second consecutive season, MASN has made changes to the broadcast team. Last season, MASN made a mass overhaul of the pre-game and postgame coverage for both the Nationals and Baltimore Orioles.
