Aoki to the Giants, I really wanted to sign him. Who knows what we will do in LF now? Rasmus isn't really a Hart type of offensive player. What about Eric Young, Jr.but then again he is not much at the dish either.

Rumors are Max Scherzer and the Nats have agreed upon a 7 year deal. I will be super pissed if that happens. :banghead:

I read that last night on rotoworld.com
I'm not liking it myself.
The Nats are continue to better themselves and it's very frustrating.

Wiretap: Johan Santana Has Offer, But It's Not From Twins

I wonder if Santana can bounce back and have a productive career after the injury.

Scherzer will be making $15 mil over the next 14 years in terms of contract structure. This division is theirs for the next two years, but they will certainly handicap themselves when it comes time to give Strasburg his big extension.

Rasmus signs a 1 year $8 mill deal with the Astros, they are also close to signing Ryan Vogelsong. I would have loved to have Rasmus, this team needs another power bat to protect Freddie in the batting order.

He's the one Baby Brave (besides Mac) that I hated to lose the most. He can play 1B, 2B, 3B, and LF.

I'm happy to have him back within our system.
Always friendly and tried on the field.

He doesn't fit with Hart's offensive philosophy but he does mash lefties and could be trade bait if we are out of contention at the deadline.

Braves signed C John Buck to a minor league deal with a spring training invite.

I remember in the first half a few years ago Buck was hitting homers like Gattis.
