Milledge Following the Path of Ryan Thompson

Very rarely do I like to partake in “I told you so” writing. Today I felt compelled to do exactly that. After being ridiculed for two years for my stance on Lastings Milledge, my words finally came to fruition. The winless Washington Nationals sent Milledge, and his .167...
