The Nats love rewarding overweight 30-somethings in the midst of late-career years with new deals (see: Dmitri Young, Ronnie Belliard), and by giving Christian Guzman a two-year, $16 million contract it’s evident they’ll continue buying high and keeping expectations low. The other big news of the day is they shipped Jon Rauch to Arizona for switch-hitting [...]

It turns out that being the token All-Star for the Nationals is the way to GM Jim Bowden 's heart. Last year's All-Star, DH Dmitri Young * , cashed in for $5 million a year, despite being a overweight diabetic. Young is now on the DL because his blood sugar is out of control. Hopefully he can get that straightened out because that is scary stuff. It kind of proves that spending $5 million on him was...

ATLANTA | Washington Nationals first baseman Dmitri Young is back in the District to work on getting his blood sugar back to normal while the team is on the West Coast, but that won't be the only step Young needs to take to get back on the roster.

OK that’s a little better. Although, seriously, against that band of rejects, the Reds really should sweep a four-game series. Does anyone miss Austin Kearns? Felipe Lopez? Dmitri Young? Sily Mo? Aaron Boone? Me neither. There’s a reason we got rid of them. They stink…and bad!!! Thought the camo jerseys were ridiculous looking. Appreciate the reason for [...]

Two things you should know about the Washington Glory, D.C.'s own entry into National Pro Fastpitch, even if they play at Westfield High in Fairfax County. 1) Dmitri Young has been known to frequent their games. Some sort of family friendship. But if it's good enough for Dmitri, it's dang sure good enough for you. 2) Five members of the team appeared on the Junkies this morning. Much of the conversation...

Either way, the man was a professional hitter. But it's hard to recognize that Dmitri as our Dmitri. Note especially his stunning foot speed in the final seconds of this clip.

Tough times for Nats fans, no? But I reckon it's impossible to look at this photo and not cheer for Dmitri Young. The tuft of soul patch quivering like a North Carolina palm tree in hurricane season, both feet hovering lightly off the ground like hummingbirds at dusk, the helmet a once-vivid dream bouncing backwards toward oblivion, the shirt for now winning its endless battle against the laws of physics....

Apparently even s#!ttier than Dmitri Young’s. Extra Mustard had eight questions for International Man Of Awesome Edwin Jackson and three other less awesome players from less awesome teams like the Cardinals. Most of the IMOA’s answers I’m cool with. He digs Lisa Raye, the Fugees and white t-shirts, fine. But then there’s the cinema question: Zohan or [...]
