Nats trade Milledge, Hanrahan
MVN RSS — ... two chronic under-achievers, OF Lastings Milledge and RP Joel Hanrahan to the Pittsburgh Pirates for Nyjer Morgan and Sean Burnett. Morgan is a left-handed outfielder who does something the Nats don't do -- plays defense. Morgan turns 29 this week and he runs like the wind, covering a ton of space in the outfield and stealing bases [18 so far this season] when he gets on. He hits for pretty good average, but has almost no power.  ...

Defensive value
Redleg Nation — I realize that Adam Dunn is no longer on the Reds, but Rob Neyer’s ESPN blog today directs readers to another blog that discusses the value of Adam Dunn versus the newly acquired National, Nyjer Morgan. I wish defensive statistics could be truly valued at this point. When I watch the sports highlights, I was also prefer the defensive moments, and when I was a child I dreamed of making a great defensive play to end the game rather than hitting the game winning home run. So, personally speaking, I do find it odd for myself to constantly argue ...

Community Projection Review: Left Field
Bucs Dugout — ... Here's the community projection review for Nyjer Morgan.

RDV across the sea was the closest guesser, predicting that Morgan would hit .300/.350/.380. I'm sure the last thing anyone wants is another disquisition on the value of ...
