Potomac Cannons club owner Art Silber announced that the team’s new name will be the Potomac Nationals for the 2005 season. The announcement took place Sunday, February 13 at the 10th Annual Hot Stove Banquet and Silent Auction at the Hyatt Fair Lakes hotel in Fairfax.

The club's new logo was also unveiled along with uniform renderings and the new home cap. The logo contains the word "Nationals," in the same style lettering as the D.C. team, outlined in red and blue in front of a baseball and two crossed bats. The colors are red, white and navy. The Potomac Nationals' new home caps are navy and feature a white "P" with blue and red trim and a red, white and blue streaming flag. Road caps will be red and will bear the same logo.

The then-Potomac Cannons signed a two-year Player Development Contract with the then-Montreal Expos following the 2004 season. 2005 marks Potomac's first season as an affiliate of the Washington Nationals.

The franchise has called G. Richard Pfitzner Stadium in Woodbridge, VA home since the 1984 season and has been affiliated with the Pittsburgh Pirates (1981-86), New York Yankees (1987-93), Chicago White Sox (1994-96), St. Louis Cardinals (1997-2002) and Cincinnati Reds (2003-04).

The Potomac Nationals also announced the launch of the club’s new website, www.potomacnationals.com, which immediately replaces www.potomaccannons.com.
