Nothing says "Fall Classic" like a Xavier Nady sighting prior to World Series Game 2. Pic above via @JohnJDevine.
Seems like only yesterday Nady was a member of the Goon Squad and inspiration for ridiculous photoshops. Not that he didn't have his moments of personal glory with the Nationals, like that shaving cream pie to the face from Mike Morse after his 100th career...

Nationals Designate Xavier Nady For Assignment
Former Mets fan favorite Xavier Nady was DFA’d by the Nationals today.
Nady has been on the DL since June for a wrist injury and was activated today. However, the Nationals are playing a double header and wanted to keep Lannan on the roster to start one of the games, therefore Nady had to be DFA’d.
On the season Nady is batting .157 with a .211 OBP, so he would not be a solution...
FP Santangelo's impressive catch
On Sunday MASN's FP Santangelo made an impressive one-handed catch of a Xavier Nady foul ball into the MASN booth at Fenway. Oh! Speaking of MASN, here's the Washington Post's Thomas Boswell on the MASN-Angelos-Nats deal:
Just as the Nats’ profile is skyrocketing, the argument between the Nationals and Peter Angelos’s MASN network over the value of Washington’s...
