2008 Washington Nationals Information

The Washington Nationals are all set to thrill their fans in the upcoming 2008 season. This season will be their fourth one since they moved from Canada to Washington DC in 2005. The team is presently owned by Ted Lerner of Lerner Enterprises and Managed by Manny Acta. The Washington Nationals will begin their 2008 season on their home ground, the Nationals Park, with a game against the Atlanta Braves on March 30. On September 28, they will play their last game of the regular season against Phillies at Philadelphia.

In a bid to win this season, the Washington Nationals are banking on prospects such as 19 year old Chris Marrero who holds the first base position. He is considered the team’s top offensive man even after suffering from a hamstring injury, but is expected to return to his top form come mid-season. Another young prospect that fans should keep an eye on is Ross Detwiler, a pitcher who knows how to whip up a decent fastball. All he needs to improve on are his strength and stamina, and the team might make it to the end of the season with excellent results.

Other notable players in the Nationals teams include Michael Burgess, John Lannan, Garrett Mock, Collin Balester, Justin Maxwell, Tyler Clippard and Jack McGeary. In the 2007 season, Washington Nationals tried their best to win major league titles and ended their season in fourth place in the NL East with a record of 73-89. In the upcoming 2008 season, the team will be looking forward to win the NL East title as well as other big games.
