Somethings going to get done today. Personally I hope he goes to Washington and becomes the face of that franchise. Thoughts?

If they had pitching, he might... I say no way.

I don't know about face of the franchise...that's Zimm. But that would be a great corner infield with Zimm at 3rd and Tex at 1st.

I like where the team is heading offensively... but their pitching STINKS. I see big years out of Milledge and Flores though...

Long run, the Nats should have better pitching on the way. Jordan Zimmerman is a start. Assuming they pony up the cash for Strasburg, that's a future 1-2 right there IMO.

Clippard is not so shabby as well...

I hope it gets done today....because then the Sox would need to trade Lowell. haha

While the Nats deal is pretty nice..Boston will a better fit.

BOSTON BOSTON BOSTON!!

GO SOX!

No really, I agree with the above poster. Lowell needs to go and Tex needs to come.

Honestly, Tex is pretty vastly overrated...He's a 30-100 1B. Excellent glove, yes. But he really hasn't been an incredible offensive force outside of Texas's microwaved bandbox. Don't see him as a $20MM a year guy.

How you are overrated when your a 30-100 1b?? Not to mention your are heading into the prime of your career and you were one of the only players on your team last season that hit successfully in the post season? Not to mention you have a great glove. 20 mill a year ? No i agree, but definately not overrated.

30-100 w/ excellent glove is overrated and not an offensive force? I think we've been spoiled by the steroid era I'd take that from a 1B anyday, provided it was consitant year in and year out.

He's going to the Nats with Burnett

Nats offered AJ - 5 years/90 mill

 

[WATER_DOG007]

TEX is a GREAT ( Future HOF) Player. IMO

 

[moxacaine]

Dont forget the Nats have Detwiler too.

I would love to see Tex come to DC.

 

[WATER_DOG007]

I'm not much on him going to the NATS, but they do have M. Burgess & Chris Marreo on the way.
