The Washington Nationals are looking for some power to back up Juan Soto’s exceptional hitting skills.
Heading into Monday night’s 7-6 loss to the Atlanta Braves, Soto was the one known quantity in the Nats’ offense, spraying the ball all over the field with power, no matter whether he hits second, third or cleanup.
Last postseason, his power and Anthony Rendon’s were deadly.
But now that Rendon is gone, who else in the Nats’ offense really scares anyone? Will any of the players the Nats have thrust into everyday roles emerge as another threat after Soto?
