There is no long term deal between Jordan Zimmermann and the Nationals. Yet.
The Nationals and Zimmermann did agree on a one year deal that avoids arbitration, a desire of both sides. Arbitration is always contentious and leaves hard feelings.
The Nats are thought to want long terms deals wqth Zimmermann and Ian Desmond. Both signed one year deals while longer term extensions are sought.

Bryce Harper is already issuing gems for today’s diehard fan, he’s 230 pounds and he’s ready to wreck baseballs. This quote caught our eye, and it’s why we’ve loved Harper from the start. You know he means it when he says: “I’m still 20,” he said. “I’m still young. I’m going to treat every guy on our team with respect, going to treat every guy in the other dugout...

I don’t know if you’ve been following the saga of Danny Espinosa’s beard. Quite frankly, I don’t really care about the beard. What I do care about is that this dude has an absolutely stunning girlfriend. She’s gorgeous.
Her name is Sara Mosher, and I think I’m in love. Tractor beam sucked me right in. I mean there are hotter chicks out there but there’s just something...

Washington Nationals’ second baseman Danny Espinosa had a decent season in 2012 (except for those NL-leading strikeouts). Unfortunately, Espinosa and Washington packed away their Nattitude for the year after blowing Game 5 to the Cardinals in the National League Division Series. It was a crappy ending for the team with baseball’s best record in the regular...
