ON THE BEAT (22:15)- Dan sits down with Barry Svrluga of the Washington Post and Mark Zuckerman of MasnSports.com to talk about the first half storylines of the Nats season, the looming trade deadline and potential trade targets for the team.

WOULD YOU RATHER (49:15)- Dan fires a variety of All-Star break themed scenarios at players as we approach the break. Brian Goodwin, Matt Wieters and Sammy Solis all weigh in on these very hard-hitting questions.

ON DECK (57:00)- The guys talk about the importance of the All-Star break itself and just how much can be gained from a “productive” break. Dan also brings up the latest on Jayson Werth and the value that a healthy, productive Werth can bring to this club in the second half.
