Grienke Grief

There was a recent post in the Washington Post saying getting Cy Young award winner Zack Grienke would be out of the Nats' budget, and the Nats shouldn't worry about the Philles becuase they are getting old and are locked up in big contracts.

Well, that is completely wrong because before the Philles get old - which won't be for another couple years - the Nats need to find a way to beat them. Also, the Nats should not be talking about out of their budget becuase they just gave someone 126K.  When Jayson Werth's contract runs out I will be a junior in high school.

Getting Grienke would be huge. It would be a big help to this rotation. Their argument was they already have Jordan Zimmermann, which I think is stupid.  Zimmermann is not good enough to lead a rotation. The only glitch is that the Nats would only have Greinke for two years but I would trade 2 Grienkes for 10 Jordan Zimmermanns in a heart beat.
