I have enjoyed how a lot of free agents decided to not sign with the nats and Brandon Phillips turned down a trade to the nats.

Luckily if their fans want to see some good baseball, we're only a short drive away!

Interesting format. Good looking at it that way.

I found MLBTraderumors too early. I can never take them seriously.

Sometimes they are right, the problem with MLBTR, they don't have any of their own writers, they depend on reprinting whatever Heyman and others say. Not that thats wrong, they use some of our local guys stuff, in dealing with Orioles news.

Nice place to drop in and see what "rumors" are floating for what teams/players, instead of trying to read 31 other locations for each team.
