I understood not paying Harper. He simply wasn’t worth it. Rendon is worth every penny. Offensively and Defensively, he’s elite. This lineup is sorely lacking his hitting prowess. The ideal #3 hitter. A shame the Nats let him walk, when they’re so willing to pay free agents. Rendon is the best player to wear a Nats jersey. Everything Ryan Zimmerman was destined to be, before injuries took their toll.
