Would be a bad move for Nats, to give up their top prospects for a guy they will be replacing in 2 years or so.

McCutchen is not the same player he was. Guys body is showing the wear and tear. Sure, the 14mil per looks great for him, but buyer beware. Reminds me of Edmonds, when his body started to crumble, and all those dives, years on CF took their toll.


Nats shouldn't sell out for 1-2 years of Mccutchen.


The 14mil+option for 14.5 will be the reason teams are interested, and willing to pay a primo dollar. Cheap price for a guy like him, even with the risks of his body wearing down.

I would hardly call dealing Lopez and Robles along with a few other low level prospects "selling out". It's a good farm system and their core players on the major league level are still young.

I would like it more if they were planning to play him at a corner outfield spot

one year playing injured can not be ruled a decline. Show me another year like that and then you can say that
