WASHINGTON -- The Nationals have already completed much of their heaviest shopping this winter -- with the exception of a potential reunion with Bryce Harper -- upgrading at catcher, revamping their rotation, finding a new second baseman, reconnecting with their old backup first baseman and adding a pair of righties in the bullpen.
It leaves little on the Nationals' wish list before they head to West Palm Beach, Fla., three weeks from Wednesday and gives them a chance to focus on a few minor tweaks to their roster, areas like starting pitching depth or adding veterans to come to camp and compete for roster spots.
