VIERA, Fla. -- Nationals manager Dusty Baker said the toughest decision will be to fill the final spot on the bench. It's a given that Stephen Drew, Jose Lobaton, Michael Taylor and Clint Robinson are going to start the season as reserves. The final spot is another story, however. In fact, on Thursday morning, Baker and his coaching staff were talking about that last spot.
Players such as Tony Campana, Brendan Ryan, Scott Sizemore, Reed Johnson, Chris Heisey, Matt den Dekker and Tyler Moore are candidates for the final spot on the bench.
