The Washington Nationals will begin the second half of the season by hosting the Los Angeles Dodgers this weekend. What are some of the things that we can expect to see from the Nats in the second half?
The Washington Nationals lead the NL East by two games with a 48-39 record as we head into the second half. While I think that many expected a more dominant performance from the Nats this season, they're right where they want to be. It's difficult to imagine that a team that has suffered as many injuries as the Nats have in the first half performing quite as well as they were expected to in the preseason anyway.
