Washington Nationals: Recent success of Kurt Suzuki seems sustainable

Ever since Wilson Ramos went down with a torn ACL towards the end of the 2016 season, the Washington Nationals have struggled for offensive production from behind the plate. But in 2019, the team will be hoping Kurt Suzuki and Yan Gomes can change that.

Yan Gomes is coming off of an All-Star season in 2018 where he hit very well, for a catcher at least. He had a relatively solid .266/.313/.449 slash line with 16 homes runs in 2018, which hasn’t been too far from his career norm when he’s played a large portion of games.
