The Nationals are hoping to forget a disastrous season in which the defending champs finished in last place, missing the playoffs despite the expanded field.
Although Trea Turner and Juan Soto were even better, injuries and regression conspired to destroy Washington’s chances; the team’s 2021 odds are riding on better health, better fortune and an influx of veteran talent that includes OF Kyle Schwarber, 1B Josh Bell, SP Jon Lester and lights-out closer Brad Hand.
