Discontent continues among five outfielders

Brandon Watson?!?!?!?

Come on. If there is a problem in the Nats OF due to too many OFers, a AAA call-up is not part of it.

This situation is Jim Bowden's tar baby as he could not resist trading for the greatly-diminshed Preston Wilson, and then to combine it with a manager of Frank Robinson's proclivity ("You're going to get a guy (Wilson), and then in less than a month you're going to give up on him?"

The short and simple answer is "Yes" if he is hurting the team, and a .216 AVG does just that for a squad with offense issues.
