Jon Lester fitting into the Washington Nationals’ rotation of “alpha-males”

The Washington Nationals and elite starting pitching have become synonymous with each other over the last 10 years.

General Manager, Mike Rizzo, has always made a point of pushing a large number of his chips into a strong and reliable starting rotation. It’s no different in 2021 with another group that has as impressive a resume as any in the big leagues.

The abilities of Max Scherzer, Stephen Strasburg, and Patrick Corbin need no introduction to Nationals fans and they will once again make up one of the best trios of starters in the majors.
