What the heck is going on here?  The lowly Nats have won four in a row?  And six of the last eight?

That can’t be right.  This is the team that can’t even sign its top draft picks.  This is the team that has the worst record in baseball.  This is the team that only draws fans to watch the other team.  This is the team that’s destined to lose because the owner knows shopping malls, not baseball.  This team is supposed to be a joke.

And they may well be a joke next week.  Teams may take notice and start putting more effort into their games with the Nats.  Or the Nats could simply fall apart and go back to being the team that DC is used to seeing.

Or they might not.

Either way, I’m along for the ride.
