Rafael Soriano to Washington

[YanksNats1987]

Figured somebody would've posted this since I was at work! But anyways, thoughts on the signing? To me it's one of those moves a team makes when they have a championship mindset.

The Nationals have agreed to terms on a two-year, $28 million contract with veteran Rafael Soriano, a source familiar with the deal confirmed. Terms also include a $14 million option for 2015 that would automatically vest if Soriano finishes 120 combined games over the next two seasons.

The surprise addition of Soriano (a Scott Boras client) gives the Nationals yet another power right-hander at the back of their bullpen, but raises immediate questions about how manager Davey Johnson plans to divvy up roles.

He's really good now we have 2 closers who can rotate in and out

Mega bucks, but what a signing!

I wonder if Drew Storen is pissed.
