Although it is April, the Washington Nationals look like a team headed nowhere fast.
After Friday’s 2-1 loss to the Colorado Rockies, the Nats fall to 6-8 and have dropped eight of their last 10. Meanwhile, the New York Mets continue to roll. Washington is six back in the National League East.
Yes, it is early. But, things can get away from teams quickly. Washington, as a team, came into the game hitting .233. Unless Max Scherzer has Bob Gibson circa 1968 joining him and Stephen Strasburg on the hill, those numbers get you nowhere.
