I knew he'd get traded.

Hit 2 HRs this weekend after sitting on the bench for 3 weeks.

The long, winding rewarding journey continues on.

Nationals Acquire Scott Hairston
By Charlie Wilmoth [July 7 at 10:30pm CST]
The Nationals have acquired outfielder Scott Hairston in a trade with the Cubs, FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal tweets, citing a source. The Cubs will receive a minor-league pitcher in return, Rosenthal reports.

Hairston, 33, has played sparingly this year, hitting .163/.225/.398 in 111 plate appearances, the overwhelming majority of them against lefties. He would likely be used in a similar bench role with the Nationals. Hairston has a .244/.299/.447 line over ten seasons with the Diamondbacks, Padres, Athletics, Mets and Cubs. The Cubs signed him to a two-year, $5MM contract last offseason after he posted an .803 OPS with New York in 2012.

Yeah, because losing a fourth outfield would substantially shape how this roster is going to look in two years.

Honestly an arm being called up after 7 innings of relief pitching would makes some sense. And then it is probably a filler type guy since there is no at bats to be had in the OF right now since the guy that got traded has played how much the past two weeks?

Both sides are apparently exchanging PTBNL.
