The White Sox as well as Diamondbacks have concluded upon a traffic which will send starting pitcher Edwin Jackson to Chicago, a initial intensity step in a understanding which could send Nationals initial baseman Adam Dunn to a White Sox as well as land Jackson with a Nationals.

The Nationals have been vigilant upon possibly traffic Dunn or signing him to a stipulate prolongation by Saturday’s 4 p.m. non-waiver traffic deadline.

Well a proof is which a ChiSox have to get a starter during a behind of since they traded a single of theirs (Hudson) to get Jackson. But what about something similar to Dunn as well as Livo for Jackson as well as a prospect? The tract thickens.

Sounds similar to Rizzo has got a Yankees as well as a Rays in a behest competition for Dunn. we goal he stays though a 4 year understanding seems similar to as well many to pay. Speculation is he could get 3 years for M which could still give him a integrate of years as a DH. Four years as a 1B is not a great understanding for a Nats. At any rate, when a tall rollers proceed behest we have to listen.

First listened about this intensity traffic progressing this week when it was a 3-way understanding which had Jackson as well as Dunn effectively being traded for any other, Dunn finale up in Chicago. we couldn’t hold even a many unhandy round exec would do that, as well as it’s great for a Nats which this assumingly is not starting to happen.

That’s a flattering bizarre non-sequitor statement? That seventeen year aged idiot is posting ardent tripe upon facebook similar to any cocky tall propagandize comparison would … creation it really transparent which he won’t even spot a majors before to he is 21. He is during slightest 3-4 years divided as well as who knows what he will demeanour similar to then? That’s 2014 guy?

This is today. Dunn, Willingham, as well as Zimmerman have been here today. Its seems approaching they won’t be here in 2014.

Dunn has his stipulations though I’m not certain this authorization can tarry in this locale by usually stockpiling pitchers with sub-par invulnerability during a behind of them as well as vouchsafing a large bopper similar to Dunn go unless we additionally compromise a midst infield shortcomings. we certitude Rizzo though we do not have a same conviction in a D.C. faithful.

Posted by: McKinley2 | Jul 30, 2010 2:40 PM | Report abuse

Rizzo obviously pronounced which a traffic of Dunn would have to embody Beckham. If we were KW would we traffic Edwards, Beckham, may be Quentin for Dunn as well as a integrate of Nats pitching prospects? They competence crucify we in Chicago if we did that.

If we was Dunn we would take my chances as giveaway agent. we cruise he can do improved than 3 years million.

“The Nationals have been vigilant upon possibly traffic Dunn or signing him to a stipulate prolongation by Saturday’s 4 p.m. non-waiver traffic deadline.”

And we know this how, Adam? Someone in a Nats FO trickle it to you, or have been we usually surmising? Because they positively do not HAVE to pointer him by 4 pm tomorrow, even if they wholly intend to pointer him. Tomorrow’s a traffic deadline, not a signing deadline. Look during it this way: They have perceived an suggest from Dunn’s agent, as well as have reportedly not responded during a behind of with any counter-offers during all. This equates to they know a limit volume it will cost to keep Dunn, as well as for how many years. All they have to do is compensate it. But they additionally can have use of which hold to pointer a value of whatever they competence be means to get during a behind of by traffic him. If they get a traffic suggest that’s value some-more to them than a subsequent X years of Dunn during $Y, they lift a trigger as well as traffic him. But if they don’t, afterwards they have their initial counter-offer to Dunn’s representative as well as proceed a critical routine of negotiation. They have until after a World Series to tighten which deal.

Bottom line, it’s not an either-or situation. There is a third trail which is wholly in accord with as well as rarely possible. Unless of march what we pronounced is something they told you. Which we doubt.

The NY Post is stating which both a Yankees as well as Rays have flattering many since up upon traffic for Dunn. Both teams cruise a asking cost as well high. If that’s a case, a Nats improved pull to pointer Dunn as shortly as they can. This is substantially starting to finish up costing them since they’ll roughly positively have to bombard out a lot some-more during this indicate than if they’d lengthened him before to this season, as well as there’s a great possibility he could travel divided as well as they finish up with nothing. As for Dunn, he’s assumingly let it be well known he has no seductiveness in being a full-time DH. It doesn’t appear which he’s any improved during analyzing his loyal value than a Nats are.

Dunn for Jackson would be a distressing deal. Jackson is a 5+ ERA pitcher. The Nats do not have to compensate Jackson’s income for which kind of performance.

Rangers Acquire Cristian Guzman
By Tim Dierkes [July thirty during 2:13pm CST]
The Rangers acquired infielder Cristian Guzman from a Nationals for prospects, reports MLB.com’s Bill Ladson. The Rangers were related to Guzman yesterday when Ian Kinsler strike a DL.

Guzman, 32, is attack .282/.327/.361 in 346 image appearances upon a deteriorate whilst personification second base, shortstop, as well as right field. He has .87MM superfluous upon his contract, though it was approaching which a Nationals would have to collect up many or all of a add-on to pierce him.

Love it, adore it, adore it! As many as we conclude all Guzzie did for us, I’m blissful we got to pierce him for some-more prospects. Plus we was sleepy of his lacksadaisacal (sp) proceed to a game…

Posted by: FloresFan | Jul 30, 2010 3:19 PM |

Wow, Guzman was a initial merger a Nats ever made. we am extraordinary to know who they got in return. It is a great pierce if they paid a cube of his income as well as thus got improved prospects in return.

+1/2St.

How about signing Dunn already? He is a single of a many appropriate as well as many underrated hitters in round as well as has worked his a$$ off to turn a workable initial baseman. Let’s not proceed working similar to a Redskins as well as vouchsafing a own players go. Let’s be a peculiarity classification as well as close a loyal stars up prolonged tenure even if it costs money. Don’t cruise Zimmerman as well as Strasburg won’t recollect this if we let a many appropriate (only) energy hitter leave town.

Either Dunn agrees to something in accord with or he is gone.

His invulnerability is so bad which reduces what we would routinely compensate a 35 home run hitter who is merely ‘decent’ in a field.

If he doesn’t determine he can be a DH in Chicago or Boston.

A impulse of high regard of Guz, a final of a strange guys, we think. Got by which horrible initial year when he couldn’t see a ball, as well as afterwards a injuries, as well as afterwards a move. Didn’t travel enough, not a tip moody fielder by a time we got him, though in all worked hard, had a great attitude, as well as had a satisfactory series of large hits, to a border a Nats have large hits. Good fitness to him.

Didnt they usually get Dunn not even dual seasons ago? What was a point? And how can we get improved if we traffic divided your great players for prospects? Keep Dunn as well as keep adding some-more players.

So far, so good. we certitude Rizzo. This is a final place team.

Guzman was up as well as removing anything during all was a plus. Good hitter, though his fielding was suffering.

Capps – A bit unsure since Storen as well as Clippard have been up as well as down. Taking a catcher awaiting for a man who is unessential as well as potentially dear after this year was smart.

Dunn – We’ll see, though Rizzo had improved have a alternative group harm as he had pronounced recently. we wish Gordon Beckham… Make it happen, Rizzo.
