Yeah, Duh!

I'm all in agreement with Chris and Ryan on this one: if some opposing GM not named Wayne Krivsky wants to trade us a prospect or two for Dmitri Young, Jim Bowden should react like the Dutch buying Manhattan island for a bunch of wampum. Tom Boswell says "The Nats are out...

Kearns Unlikely To Be Dealt
