Nats deal for Olsen and Willingham

The Washington Nationals traded 2b Emilio Bonafacio two minors leaguers in pitcher P.J. Dean and shortstop Jake Smolinski for Josh Willingham and Scott Olsen.

Olsen had an 8-11 record with a 4.29 ERA and Willingham hit .254 with 15 homers.

Bonafacio was aquired fronm the Diamonbacks earlier in a Jon Rauch deal and hit .243 while with the Nationals.

I think this deal favors both sides.

Lopsided

Willingham straight up for that package is unfair to the Marlins. Great deal by Nats.

Wow

The Nats just stole Willingham and Olsen.

Never, Never, NEVER give up
