Once again, our Nats are the Hottest Team in….No, we won’t be traveling down that road of (only slight) hyperbole again. Not after our last such declaration apparently induced some sort of Bob-Carpenter-like jinxing on the team, leading to a loss that night and, just days later, the start of twelve straight…well, you know.
No, this time we’ll just revel in the two consecutive series sweeps the Nats have laid down, flush with timely, consistent hitting from a healthy, Elijah-Dukes-containing lineup and increasingly shut-down pitching from closer-in-rising Joel Hanrahan.
Want a bigger optimistic picture? The sweeping away of the Dodgers and Braves closed out an August in which the Nationals played nearly .500 baseball (14-15). Who would have thought this possible 11 days ago, with a naysayer-bringing-out non-winning streak still very much intact and the August record sitting at 6-13? Well, we did.

High quality Breitling Watch
are crafted from the finest materials to ensure the identical looks with the genuine timepieces. If you are still looking for an ideal Breitling Avenger
with limited bank account then the relative replica article is the right option. They are sold at much lower prices then the real ones. Suppose you do have not enough money on a Chrono Superocean
timepiece, I high recommend you to a replica article. The prices differ relying on the model you choose. For those people who are longing to own these kind timepieces at limited budget, they can only go to the affordable Superocean
.
