Please, sell the team. Don’t turn us into the Athletics or Pirates of the world that depend on a perfect storm of generational talent in order to even consider making the playoffs. Rebuilds are a natural part of the cycle of sports, and the Nats were a bit overdue for one if we’re being honest, but there’s no need to draw it out longer than it needs to be. We have the young prospects, and the number 2 pick in next year’s MLB draft, so let’s get the ball rolling and formally usher in the new era of Nationals baseball. Sell the team.
