If there is one team that has been more baffling over the course of the
season than any other, it's the Washington Nationals.
如果有一队到目前的表现，比任何一队的状况都难以理解，那就是国民队。
This is not some new revelation. Washington was picked by nearly every media
outlet in every city from coast to coast as the runaway favorite to win the
NL East, and most predicted the Nats would do so in gargantuan fashion,
easily surpassing the 100-win mark and possibly knocking on the door off the
all-time record.
这并不是新的说法。国民被以前被众多媒体认为能赢得国东，而且被预测是强权，可以轻
易的超过百胜、打破历史纪录。

But with six weeks left in the season, it's looking more and more like the
Nationals may miss the postseason all together.
但面对只剩下六周的赛季，国民队越来越有可能错过季后赛。
It's not completely a lost cause, however. The Nationals are a week in to a
very soft part of their schedule, and so far, they've taken advantage. They
took two of three from the Rockies and Brewers on the road and they'll spend
the next week hosting the Padres and Marlins.
还没有完全绝望，国民队有一周是比较软的赛程，而到目前为止也表现得不错，他们对
落矶跟酿酒人都在客场各拿了两场胜利，而他们将要在主场面对教士跟马林鱼。
None of that will matter if the first-place Mets continue to plow through
August, and they have a favorable schedule coming up as well. They play seven
of their next 10 games against the last-place Phillies
