Nats' Johnson sticking with Rodriguez as closer
Washington Nationals manager Davey Johnson says Henry Rodriguez remains the team's closer - and Johnson doesn't want to be asked about it anymore.
Speaking before Monday's game against the San Diego Padres, Johnson says: ''Is he my closer? Yes, he's my closer. I have all the confidence in the world.''

Yes, The Reds Still Have Prospects
They’re going all-in, trading away the farm, and emptying out their farm system, but baseball scouts and analysts are still finding good Reds minor league prospects to compile various top prospect lists.
The latest list I saw earlier this week came from Baseball Prospectus. They characterize the Reds system “in 20 words or less: Considering the trades made for a 2012...
