Washington Nationals: Potential Batting Order Changes in 2020

One of the keys to the Washington Nationals 2020 season will be compensating for the offensive production that was lost when Anthony Rendon departed the Nationals in free agency. Davey Martinez will be searching for innovative ways to enhance the Nationals offense. That will likely create lineups and substitutions unlike what fans have seen in previous seasons.

One idea that has been floated, is moving Trea Turner out of the leadoff spot and hitting him third in the order ahead of Juan Soto. This would likely mean that Victor Robles would take over as the leadoff hitter.
