Overall, the Nats are pretty much where they should be, in last place in the NL East. Every one of the other teams in our division is better than the Nats, not just on paper, but on the field. We were all excited when they got as high as 19 games over .500, but deep down we all knew it wouldn't last. Oh we all wished and prayed that it would, but reality eventually set in. This team is not one iota better offensively than the team that won just 67 games last season. They are better defensively and that will get them some extra wins over last year.
My hope is that the team can finish over .500, but if they don't I wont be disappointed, because I've always felt that anything over 75 wins would be icing on the cake.
