The last time Washington won a pennant was in 1933. Baseball would love nothing more than for Stephen Strasburg, Bryce Harper and the Nationals to give the sport and the town something to shout about.

And so, Bryce Harper posted a picture of his car on Twitter today, and naturally it got...a reaction. You gotta hand it to him. There's the photo, above: "The whip! Flat black wheels! #swag" via @BHarper3407.
In any case, the photo inspired 106.7 The Fan's Chad Dukes (@chaddukes) -- yes, that's the flagship radio station of the Washington Nationals, folks...

With the upcoming season right around the corner, there is one question plaguing the minds of all Washington Nationals fans since last year's disappointing outfield performance.

Note: You’re going to have to scroll way down to see the Storify embed. We’re working on fixing that.

Four of the Nationals top five prospects were selected in last June's amateur draft. That's what happens when three top-10 prospects are traded to acquire the services of Gio Gonzalez. Of course, it helps that the four prospects cracking the top five have a lot of talent. Topping the prospect list is a guy you might have heard of, and he alone makes this list pretty special...
