Nope, sorry. The Mariners still have Ichiro, Ibanez, and a couple other guys that could be considered the beginning of a good team.
On the other hand, the Nationals don't.When the face of your franchise is Ryan Zimmerman, when your best players are Elijah Dukes and Lastings Milledge, and you are tossing guys like Pete Orr, Kory Casto, Jesus Flores, and Ryan Langerhans out on the field daily, you are officially the worst team in baseball, record or no.
Look at the Nats pitching roster:
Collin Balester
Jason Bergmann
Jesus Colome
Marco Estrada
Joel Hanrahan
John Lannan
Charlie Manning
Garrett Mock
Odalis Perez
Tim Redding
Saul Rivera
Steven Shell
This wouldn't strike fear into the heart of Rob friggin Deer
