As of this morning, former Yankees 19-game winning right-hander Chien-Ming Wang was reported to be all but signed with the Washington Nationals. Only an hour later though, we heard that nothing was close with Wang and the Nats. Maybe Chien-Ming turned on the news and saw that the East Coast was buried under a thick Snuggie of snow because Dodgers execs Ned Colletti and Logan White were reportedly to watch Wang throw today. So is Wang indeed headed for the Left Coast?
No. “Dodgers have pulled out of Wang derby“, says Jon Heyman.
I didn't think the Dodgers would ever actually sign the pitcher with the career 55-26 W-L record, though, because of lingering shoulder issues that remind us all of the “S”-word, but Washington makes sense for him and for them. Looks like the Nationals are going to insert Wang into the backend of their rotation sometime around May.
