Bold predictions for 2013 Nationals from ESPN (Eric Karabell):
Washington Nationals: Bryce Harper takes over the No. 3 lineup slot from the injured Ryan Zimmerman (sorry, Ryan) and smacks 33 home runs. Tyler Moore becomes the team's everyday left fielder and swats 22 home runs. Ian Desmond is replaced at shortstop by Danny Espinosa.
Washington Nationals: Nothing bold about giving the Cy Young Award to Stephen Strasburg, but he'll strike out 242 hitters, post a 2.38 ERA and win 21 games. Yeah, he's that good. And Gio Gonzalez will win just 11 games, though his numbers will look pretty similar to 2012. Hey, not all the bold stuff is positive!
