I'm still waiting for Bavasi to slash my throat.
They are going to earn every single one of those 115 loses this year.
So this is just assuring

that they get to pick Brice Harper next June, right?

They'll get the first two picks next year.
That was my first guess.

They really want to lose…badly.

They are on track to beat the #2 pick by 10+ games.
Wow.

This info is already on Wikipedia.

Saying he is 'bullpen depth' is just about as much as you can say about him
"The Nationals added another player..

that is alive and can throw a baseball"

He's left handed.
Depends on your definition of "can throw a baseball."

In the general sense, yes, he can motion his arm forward and have a baseball move at some trajectory that is at least relatively forward. Beyond that…

When you put a bull in a pen there is buildup in depth.

Is that the depth to which they are referring?

braves! nationals!

at what point do Soriano and he face off?

Never mind the deck chairs

Punching holes in the hull is much more proactive!

Depth is just another way of phrasing ‘body count’.
