    Sigh. What an awful year.

    That’s the best part of “Just wait until next year.” Sign 2 solid pitchers, sign O Hudson and make sure C is covered and we could see a marked improvement. Optimism abounds!!

    Ok, time to put down the coffee…

    Sigh. The Nats are making this look easy.

    Any word on how Bryce Harper is fairing in fall ball at CSN?

    HWSRN signed for $3m guaranteed.

    HA!!

    The feel-good story of the week is Crow’s signing: less than what the Nats offered and with a loss of a years service time. Sure hope he had fun pitching for Fort Worth.

    VladiHondo-

    I am joining in the schadenfreude, but I need to know what HWSRN means to totally enjoy it.

    he who shall remain nameless

    “He Who Shall Remain Nameless”

    (I’d also accept HWSNBN – “shall not be named”)

    It means Crow

    Last year the angst and turmoil of not signing Aaron Crow spilled over into this forum and forced Brian to ban the use of his name from the site. Afterwards social harmony and enlightenment flourished once again across our fair land.

    Hence, he became He Who Shall Remain Nameless or He Who Shall Not Be Named.
