Washington Nationals Series Preview: Can the Nats get a much-needed sweep against the Baltimore Orioles?

The trade deadline is in a week’s time and it’s still not entirely clear how the Washington Nationals will handle things ahead of one of the most pivotal days on the baseball calendar.

After losing seven of ten against National League West foes in the San Diego Padres and San Francisco Giants, the Nationals started a stretch where they needed to start picking up wins against the Miami Marlins this week.

After two resounding wins in the first two games, the Marlins were able to steal the series finale in extra innings, keeping the Nationals six games behind the New York Mets.
