Good evening DoD readers, and welcome to today’s District Daily. Get caught up on the latest Nats news and opinions with some great Washington Nationals articles from around the web below.

In today’s Daily, MLB.com’s Bill Ladson discusses Reed Johnson’s chances of making the big league club in a backup capacity. Johnson missed almost all of last season because of a damaged tendon in his foot and a broken rib.

Despite his injury issues last season, the Nationals brought Johnson back on a minor league deal this season and the veteran has a chance to make the big league club this spring.
