Re: Are the Nationals really that bad?

I just don't understand why a team with no discipline would go after a player like Dunn, who is like a windmill up there. Yes, he walks, but his strikeout numbers are awful! Get a good all around player. But none of it matters when you pitching staff is disgusting. Worthy of a AAA roster really. The Nats best starter has a 4.91 era! They also have only 2 pitchers under a 1.50 WHIP on the entire roster. Ouch. Hitting doesn't mean squat if you let up more runs than you score!
So to answer the question, yes and no. Yes, they are awful and will be in last place more than likely, but they are obviously not going to go winless so they are better than the 0-7 start suggests.
