Scherzer (Signs w/Nats 7 -$210M )

[25 Nuggets]

Their minority of MASN money is bigger than our majority of the MASN money.

...and I'm already getting nervous about the new MLB regime.

I guess WAS will use all of their resources to win.

Baltimore's ROI is higher, that's what is important.

MLB gave them some more money? They always bail Boras out.

Meanwhile Dan is confident that Wieters and Davis will test out free agency. Maybe the Nats will sign them also, you know, to bail Boras out as always.

Probably will.

Zimmermann has rebuffed all attempts by the Nationals to sign him long term. He seems pretty intent to test the market. The Nars want to deal him while his value is high. Rizzo is pretty smart.

This. He'll most likely end up as a Brewer or play for one of the Chicago teams in 2016.

They should have traded him last year then. It is going to be difficult to do a trade that results in much salary relief or a commensurate haul of prospects. That is why they are entertaining the Strasburg option.

Hard to trade him when the team was poised for a deep playoff run. What they should have done is started him in game one. Huge mistake by manager Matt Williams. Zimmermann was by far their best starter at season's end.

I doubt if Straus is traded. He is under team control past 2015. There was talk of trading Gonzalez. Scherzer-Zimmermann-Strausburg-Fister-Roark in 2015.

I am pretty sure it is Strasburg. I mean his name.

Rather have WAS have him than NYY.

Yeah, it is hard to trade folks at their peak value unless you have a real surplus or you don't care how good you are in the immediate future. That's why you gotta maximize that value when you have them.

yep. no u in Strasburg. Either way he will be there in 2015.The Nats have so many good players they can not possibly sign them all. Rendon will be an AS for many years. The farm is loaded with power arms,too

Actually. there is a u in Strasburg.

Funny how Detroit moved Fister and let Scherzer walk and they're about to reunite and moved Smyly and they were three of their better pitchers, yet acquired Price and gave the big bucks to Fielder and Verlander and those deals over the long term have not worked out.
