SP Jon Lester (93)

The Nationals GM Nats had said this about getting Lester, "From the way he pitched this year Dan Haren will certainly be either traded soon or not brought back this year, he is producing horribly for me. ENTER JON LESTER, he is gonna be 4th/5th SP, with Haren gone and potentially Nolasco gone, and lightning could strike twice with another O's pitcher Mike Wright struggling in WASH. I have Meija, Syndegaard, Waters, Telesco and most likely none of them will move, so even though I lose Kress I have more then enough replacements for him."
