Consider it a rumor for now. And 6 mill is alot for a catcher that wouldn't hit enough to do anything but split time. Maybe the cash is lower...I hope so, for the Nats sake.Tim Brown of Yahoo! Sports reports that catcher Ivan Rodriguez has agreed to terms on a two-year, $6 million deal with the Nationals.
It's really hard to believe, but Brown is rarely wrong. The Nationals have no business handing a two-year contract to a 38-year-old catcher, especially when they have a young, productive catcher in Jesus Flores. The Nats are far from being able to contend, and this deal is hard to comprehend.
