MLB 2013 Season

I think the time for the Nats to turn things around this year is starting to dwindle, and I don't like their odds, but hopefully a new manager next year will be able to turn things around. I really hope a fresh voice will help because talent isn't the problem here, they just seem to be doing little things wrong here and there that teams are taking advantage of. Things like pitchers checking runners more, doing a proper sac bunt to move our runners, maybe move R.Zim from third base (it's a little unnerving watching him throw to first, when you never know whether to expect another wild pitch), etc. As far as hitting goes maybe they need a fresh pair of eyes to analyze their swings or something, it feels like they are pressing too hard when they are at the plate.

TL;DR: Even if they do go on a late season run I don't see them making the playoffs. I am in favor of figuring out what they have for next year.
