As of today, the Nats' team ERA is a run better than anyone else in their division.

Three years ago they won 2 of 3 at Yankee Stadium. I hope we can return the favor this weekend.

I will wait until after the All star break to make that prediction.

If they win two out of three against the Yanks then I definitely think they are a lock for the NL East division title this year

They swept the Yanks last year and were far from being the best team in the NL East.

Their last winning record after the All Star break was 2005. So that's why I still need to see more

I'll give 'em props, too, because the Saturday morning back in 2009 (Feb 28?) when I woke up in the DC for a convention that weekend to the radio newsie, I almost fell out of bed laughing because Jim Bowden resigned over scraping some cash off of Latin player signing bonuses.

That was interesting, to say the least, way back when.
