    Let's hope it doesn't conform.

    Ex.. er
    Nationals recently picked up Stanton too. I hope this doesn't turn out to blow up in their faces like when the "expos" went out and got Colon and Floyd, and died thereafter.

    Hmmm. Like getting rid of Preston and Byrnes is a decent player and I don't figure too expensive. Kennedy and Witasick did ok, but nothing too special.

    Looked a little more at Witasick and wish we hadn't given him up. He had a really good year so far, but whether of not he could have kept it up is debateable. That said, the Rockies are never going to win if they can't get a good bullpen together. I think we could have competed this year with a good bullpen. It doesn't help at all every time you trade any relievers who are working out.

    Remember when Witasik was with the Yankees? Yeah...those were the days.

    I don't really see Preston as the answer for the Nats. I don't expect Byrnes in Colorado for long. A's got a little pitching so who knows about these trades. I hope it all works out for the Nats.
