Here is a look at Major League Baseball with analysis from Nationals Insider Mark Zuckerman and Nationals writer Chase Hughes:
30. Phillies – Zuckerman: (LW: 30) Twice blew 5-run leads to the Mets this week. That about sums things up.
29. Marlins – Zuckerman: (LW: 29) In an otherwise dismal year, George Mason’s Justin Bour has been a bright spot.
28. Reds – Zuckerman: (LW: 25) A wretched stretch of baseball (4-18 since Aug. 5) leaves them last in the NL Central.
