Seems to me they're dangling post-season tickets as way to jump start their renewal drive. See below.
The good news is that STH can get a shot at playoff tickets with having to pay the entire strip (putting up money for all the games). An entire strip for our group is $6,000 so we probably won't go that way.
Season Ticket Holder Renewals
Welcome Season Ticket Holders! 2012 has truly been a season to remember and the Nationals success is due in large part to you. We look forward to your continued support throughout the remainder of the 2012 season, 2012 postseason and into 2013.

2012 POSTSEASON TICKETS:
2012 postseason tickets are only available to Season Ticket Holders in strips.
For all Season Ticket Holders who do not wish to purchase the full 2012 postseason strip, there will be an exclusive single game presale for all accounts that have renewed their season tickets for the 2013 season prior to August 31, 2012. All tickets are subject to availability.
If you purchase 2012 postseason tickets through your current status as a Season Ticket Holder, but choose not to renew your current season tickets, you do not qualify to purchase any additional 2012 postseason tickets. If the Nationals determine that you have not renewed your current season tickets, but have purchased 2012 postseason tickets, the Nationals reserve the right to cancel the 2012 postseason tickets purchased through this offer immediately and/or prohibit you from purchasing postseason tickets in 2013 or any future seasons.
