Uh-oh. The Nationals have picked a bad time to lose games. They just got swept in a 3-game series in New York by the Mets. Now both teams are deadlocked for 1st place in the NL East.

They did win two out of three games against the Mets two weeks ago, but they negated that gain with this latest lack of effort.

Two months left in the season and lots of work to do. No need to get down. The Nats are still very much alive.

Besides, on Wednesday night the promotion is a Jayson Werth Chia Pet. It will be spectacular.
