edit: oh yeah, Braves sweep Red Sox in fenway as Adam Duvall follows Marcell ozuna with another 3-HR night.

I'm the biggest Nats homer around and....

IT'S
NOT
HAPPENING

I'm not sure why not? they are the defending champs, and have all that talent on their team. Don't yo0u think they're one of the top teams in the division, if not the NLeague? If not, is this a one year anomaly for them, or has their window somehow closed? (not sure what their off-season contract situation looks like- who will they lose/have to replace; and will Nats be better/same/worse next year. Or...is it a manager thing (they seem to have that problem a lot)?
