Matt Williams definitely gets canned if they miss the playoffs, and Mike Rizzo may also end up fired, along with coaches Rick Schu (hitting) and Steve McCatty (pitching). They've built teams to go deep into the playoffs.. yet they either get bounced in the NLDS or miss the playoffs altogether. If they lose the division to the Mets, there will be a bloody mess there, as like the O's, the Nats have a lot of big name free agents (Zimmermann, Span, Desmond, Fister), none of whom are expected to return, as the Nats are already up against payroll parameters. 2017 will be especially ugly, with Harper expected to see a huge raise, and Strasburg, Ramos, Storen, Janssen and Papelbon hitting free agency. It's win now or face a major rebuild after this season for the Nats. Oh, and those Werth and Zimmerman deals are huge albatrosses..
