Through numerous media outlets the Big Fish has hit a sizable pond and the Washington Nationals and Skip Matt Williams have to be the favs for the NL East in 2015 without hesitation. Former Detroit Tigers Ace Max Scherzer is headed to the Nations Capital for a whopping $210 million but there is a nice glitch that will help the Nats in the present.

Reportedly the 2013 Junior Circuit Cy Young Winner will defer half of the $210 million until after the contract expires. Yes some $105 million will be for "Mad Max beyond Nats Park" going away get down and hopefully a Chip or two with a few parade routes will be in the memory bank.

The dynamic right-hander gets the 2nd richest contract ever for a Pitcher (Dodgers Clayton Kershaw is still at #1 7-yrs $220 Million) as he throws a high 90s "Express" (Fastball) with the "Change" in the mid 80s with a nice Slide Piece in the upper 80s and the "Local" (Curve) around high 70s low 80s. He is a "Bulldog" on the bump and his presence alone makes that Nats Staff quite menacing.

2015 NATS Projected Starting Rotation

#1 Mad Max Scherzer
#2 "S2" Starsburg
#3 "Zim" Jordan Zimmerman
#4 "Fist" Doug Fister
#5 "G2" Gio Gonzalez
#5B "Tan" Tanner Roark

Yes that looks like, feels like, and smells like north of a 105 W's in 2015...
