The 34-year-old spent the last three seasons playing for the Nationals minor league system. The 17-year veteran was a first-round pick for the Orioles in 2005 and went on to play for five major league teams. Snyder played in 1,374 minor leagues games during his career and posted a .240/.276/.455 slash line over 211 plate appearances at the major league level. 

Snyder slugged two home runs and drove in eight over his 25 Grapefruit League at-bats, but it wasn't enough to boost his long-shot odds of breaking camp with the big club. Expect him to report to Triple-A Fresno to begin the campaign.

Snyder pinch ran for Juan Soto in the fifth inning and remained in left field for the Nationals. The 32-year-old joined the team on a minor-league deal in January and is a long shot to crack the Opening Day roster given Washington's infield depth.

Snyder had a brief stint in the majors with the Rays last season, but has otherwise seen minimal MLB action since 2013. The 32-year-old did manage a .907 OPS over 47 plate appearances with the Braves in 2016, but 10 of his 11 hits went for extra bases, which was clearly unsustainable. Snyder otherwise has a career .240/.276/.455 slash line in the majors and will most likely serve as organizational depth for Washington's infield.
