Nyjer Morgan is now a Brewer

Recommended Posts

VIERA, Fla. -- The Washington Nationals have traded outfielder Nyjer Morgan to the Milwaukee Brewers.

 

Washington will get minor league infielder Cutter Dykstra and cash from the Brewers.

 

Morgan stole 34 bases for the Nationals last season despite a .319 on-base percentage, and batted .253 with 24 RBIs.

 

In 2009, Morgan hit .351 in limited playing time with the Nats, and had 24 steals.

 

Dykstra is the son of former major leaguer Lenny Dykstra. He played third base for Wisconsin of the low Class A Midwest League last season, where he hit .312 with 39 RBIs and 27 steals.

Personally I like this move as Morgan can be a good contact hitter and he has speed which is what we are lacking abit with just Gomes, Hart and Weeks. I know he has had issues with attitude but I think his fire to play the game will only help us.

Leads the league in caught stealing. Suspended last year after throwing a ball at a fan. Great move!
