Nationals outfielder Jayson Werth during batting practice at the Ballpark of the Palm Beaches on Sunday. A few hours before activity began, the oldest player on the Nationals’ 40-man roster, Jayson Werth, 37, dressed for what might be his final first spring workout with this team. From his locker in the back corner of the clubhouse, Werth can see the vast new room, a symbol of the evolution of the franchise most thought would suck his then-promising career into oblivion six years ago. Nationals outfielders Jayson Werth, left, Adam Eaton, center, and Bryce Harper shag fly ball during batting practice. “But we’re talking a whole year from now, so my focus is still right here, right now, this team,” Werth said.
