Washington Nationals: Predicting the pending outfield logjam

Key injuries and struggling veterans have made Davey Martinez’s life harder than expected through the first third of the season, but his biggest juggling act with the Washington Nationals may still be yet to come.

With Adam Eaton eligible to come off the 60-day DL this week, Martinez will soon find himself with four starting outfielders for three spots. Throw in Brian Goodwin, and Martinez will have plenty of options keeping him up at night.

Bryce Harper is obviously the everyday right fielder, even as he works through a few glitches at the plate.
