Nats sign Daniel Cabrera

For once, Ladson got it before anyone else. No terms yet. Here's his B-R page.

Here's the part that will make you cringe: "Known for his fastball, curveball and changeup, Cabrera will join a rotation that will include left-handers Scott Olsen and John Lannan."

If he is guaranteed a spot at all in the majors let alone a rotation spot, this is an awful signing. I don't care how hard he throws. He simply is not a good pitcher. Maybe converting him to a reliever or something would work, but a ton of walks plus a ton of hits is never a good combination.

Seriously...we're not going to give anyone an ML guarantee and we might end up giving in to this guy?

  1. Well, it's to be expected, after all. The Gnats has this Gnasty Habit of signing crumby pitchers, oui? BTW, please don't forget my Sx3 tomorrow...it's seasonal-and hysterical!
