An overlooked seller possibility this trade deadline could be the Washington Nationals. With a 39-43 record, they are not having the cellar-dweller year the preseason projections predicted. Less than two weeks ago, they were tied for the final playoff spot in the muddled NL Wild Card race. Despite dropping 7 of their last 11 games, if you want to view it optimistically at the halfway mark of their season, they are still in the race, but barely. They are sitting four games back with four teams between them for the last Wild Card spot. FanGraphs’ projection system does not anticipate a second-half run, with a 1.7 percent of making the playoffs.
