Sleep well.....

Alex Rodriguez?s 10-year, $275 million deal expires after the 2017 season.
Mark Teixeira?s eight-year, $180 million deal expires after the 2016 season.
Sabathia?s contract ? including the extension expires by the end of the 2017 season.
Carlos Beltran?s $45 million deal will be over after 2016.
Brian McCann?s $85 million deal will conclude after 2018.
Chase Headley?s $52 million deal will end in 2018.
Brett Gardner?s $52 million deal will end in 2018.
Andrew Miller?s $36 million ends in 2018.

If he's not a Yankee in 2019....

Phew.. yeah, i was looking at this the other day.  Not sure what, if anything, they can do to keep him around longer.  He's getting 5m next year (2016), then i think two arbitration years.

Now is probably our (the Nationals) last chance to lock him down for a longer period while that $5m season is still on his contract.  Significant raise to that 2016 salary could get us a few more years.  He'd probably be nuts to sign anything more than a 3 or 4 year deal, if that, after this season.  But i honestly have no idea.

If you guys all refrain from buying Prince tickets, maybe you'll have enough to create a fund that will succcessfully keep Harper in town.

The Nats (finally)  acquire Padres prospect Trea Turner as the player to be named later.  He's a good one.

Right.

And I was going to post that, but didn't want to jinx them. Like you did!

I was hoping to reverse jinx them.

At least they're consistent about their inconsistency.

I would not fire Matt Williams at this point.. I know there are a lot of people demanding his head but maybe he can still turn it around although being in the bottom half of MLB teams is pretty dissapointing..

but maybe i'm missing something... like "baseball is more than just on-field performance"?

The only things folks are missing right now is his ability to do this for an entire season.

This is his best chance yet though.

Or is it?

Maybe they will bring Davey back.

Davey was out of gas....done..put a fork in him...he didn't deserve to be fired but he was done....

Obviously even out of gas he's 10 times the manager Matt Williams will ever be...

Let's hope that Joe Ross is not the second coming of Mike Wright.
