Nationals

Among many other traits, Bryce Harper has shown an uncanny ability to learn from his mistakes and rarely, if ever, repeat them.

Here’s a look at five players who were hot, and five players who were not over the past week.

    Edwin Jackson takes the mound today in Viera for his second start of the spring, as does Livan Hernandez, who once again faces his former club.

    Jayson Werth and Mark DeRosa each homered during the Nationals' 5-2 spring training win yesterday, perhaps evidence each veteran has rediscovered his power stroke.
