do we know if Mead has enough arm to play 3rd?
Mead has played more 3rd than any other position prior to this year

if he can be a decent platoon could be alright then, uninspiring but if it gets the job done (story of the team this year so far)

Great win.   Really wish they would cut Mikolas and Vivas.   No reason for those two

They haven't been shy about making roster moves to improve the team.  No doubt watching the waiver wire, talking to other teams, etc.

Between the 12th last night and 2nd tonight, the Nats gave up 15 runs, so the bounceback showed fire
