The Washington Post’s Chico Harlan reports the Washington Nationals avoided arbitration with 3B Ryan Zimmerman and signed him to a one-year, $3.325 million contract. He can make $175,000 in incentives.
Our Instinct: Zimmerman, who is only 24 will be a top 10 third baseman this season. A line of 600 ab, .295 avg, 90 runs, 95 rbi, and 23 hr seems likely. 600 points and $22 value seems reasonable, but you should be able to land him for $13-$16.
Closing in on 25 years of following the greatest game in the world very closely. I can remember as a kid how excited I was when a player that I had watched in the minors make his major league debut. The same holds true today. We designed Baseball Instinct with that in mind; getting you the fan excited to get out and see the see the stars of tomorrow - today!

I like your instinct, George. I agree with the valuation and I would never suggest anyone going any higher than the window of BI13-BI16 that you bring up.
