Nick Johnson: Can dude stay healthy long enough to get traded to a contender? I hope so. I think he'll fetch a player or two. Make no mistake about it. He is on a 3 month showcase tour to prove that he can still play. After missing all last year with a freak broken leg injury, he 'won' the 1B job in spring training. This might seem curious considering the frugal Nats spent 10 mil on Dimitri Young. Don't look too far into it. That move was for him to act as player/mentor for a team with tons of young players on it who might need some sage wisdom now and then (Dukes, Willy Mo Pena, Lastings Milledge etc.).
