As the Nationals open up the second half with a west coast road trip against the A's
and Rockies, the District Territory team sits down and discuss some large questions
as they'll head down the stretch. Does James Wood stay on a blazing pace and make
history with the most runs scored in a single season? Will Foster Griffin continue
his spectacular season and find himself in the rookie of the year conversation? Does
his season end in Washington, or will the Nats find themselves sellers come the dead-
line?
