LINEUP CHANGES: Washington Nationals Star James Wood Belongs In The Leadoff Spot

The Washington Nationals have been rolling out All-Star James Wood in the leadoff spot, and this is what should be happening. Ryan discusses the lineup changes recently with the Nats, and why he encourages Wood in the leadoff spot moving forward. What should the lineup look like after that? We then discuss the latest roster move with Jose Tena being optioned to AAA with Andre Chaparro back in the bigs! Nathaniel Lowe has found a new home in Boston... Don't be surprised if he breaks out there.
