Nationals Hire Jason Sinnarajah as President of Business Operations

The move formalizes a business-side overhaul that separates day-to-day commerce from baseball decisions.

Overview

The team announced Sinnarajah’s appointment from the Royals, tasking him with oversight of all business functions.
Nationals officials credited him with introducing fan entry technology and overhauling concessions in Kansas City.
Owner Mark D. Lerner framed the new position as part of a data-driven modernization of the organization’s business strategy.
Local reporting indicates Sinnarajah will report to ownership, with Paul Toboni continuing to run baseball operations.
The hire extends a front-office rebuild that recently added Toboni as president of baseball operations and Anirudh Kilambi as general manager, with unresolved MASN broadcast-rights questions providing key context.
