Nate the Great

Good news out of Bradenton...the Buccos signed CF Nate McLouth to a three year contract extension. The sides were able to avoid an arbitration hearing, which is good for both sides anytime that happens. I personally think Nate will have trouble repeating last year's numbers without Nady and Bay protecting him in the lineup, but I wouldn't be surprised if he lights the world on fire again. Hopefully, for his and the Pirates' long suffering fanbase's sake he comes out swinging. But then again, if his success continues, his next contract will come from another source.

  1. Nate won't have a big enough contract for the Yanks to sign him. They have standards you know. $10 mill and up, thats it!

    PS I love the Yankees! Really.
