    Geez...now I find myself agreeing with a Philly fan?

    To the blog [and yes, this is the same comment I left there]

    Please....the last thing this club and it's youth needs is a gimmick that will set the franchise back.

    Did we really think the Nats weren't going to take some lumps this year? Just gotta swallow them and move on.

    Plus, a National League team signing Bonds without the DH option would be an absolutely idiotic move.

    You might as well advocate bringing in a cartoon Paris Hilton to save the Simpsons.
