Alex Suarez could have been an absolute legend of this sport… if NMLB would’ve been founded five years earlier. Being 28 when the league was founded, the right-hander pitched until his age 41 season, and pitched effectively until the last year. A 3x Cy Young winner and 10x All-Star, his career numbers say: 193-121 3.66 2014K 459G/439GS 59.5WAR and, his most prized possession, the 2007 World Series Ring with the Boston Aeros.

Drafted 7th overall in the first NMLB draft, Alex Hernandez was one of the first young rising stars that came out of the draft, finishing third in the EL Rookie of the Year voting before going on to win three MvP Awards, 6 Gold Gloves, 4 Silver Slugger Awards and getting named an All-Star nine times. His stunning .365-24-137 .999OPS 42/50SB 9.7WAR season in 2005 not only netted him one of his MvP Awards, it also paved the way for his only World Series Championship, and the only championship of the Washington Nationals. Finishing his career, Hernandez was a .330/.383/.516 162 HR 1126RBI 1171R 2409H 436/513SB 70.5WAR hitter in 1906 games, most of them with Washington(2002-2014).

News:
January 4th- Veteran C David Martinez(30, 2.5*, .228-5-41 .586OPS -1.3WAR with POR) agreed on a minor league contract with us. He has two options left.

January 7th- Former Montreal Expos hurler Austin Williams(29, 3*, 4-4 20SV 3.00 86K 1.7WAR 60IP) agreed to a 2y/$17.8M contract with the Jacksonville Patriots today.

January 11th – IF Tommy Campbell(26, 2.5*) agreed to his minor league offer sheet. He has one option left and was stashed in AAA for now.

January 12th – We offered a 1y/$2.8M contract to RHRP John Coulter(33, 3*). The veteran was 3-1 1SV 2.40 46K 0.9WAR between VAN and WSH and has only posted a an ERA over four once in nine years.

January 20th – In what feels like highway robbery, we were able to sign not one, but both of our big international amateur free agent targets, adding hard hitting SS Javier Cordoba(16, 5* HS, 4* OSA), a 45/65/80/85/35 rated hitter with 55D at third and 50D at shortstop for $3.6M, and also signed outfielder Mauricio Gonsales(16, 5*), a 50/80/75/80/55 rated hitter with 65D at the corners and decent speed, for $3.8M.

January 30th – We upped the offer to RHRP John Coulter(33, 3*) to 1y/$3.64M as the Denver Seahawks swooped in…
February 3rd – Some big free agents went off the table today:
Vancouver 1B Ricky Osorto(29, 3.5*, .300-12-64 .828OPS 3.2WAR) 7y/$193.6M
Denver RHSP Nick Dennett(25, 3*, 0-0 1SV 0.00 5K 3IP 0.1WAR) 3y/$52.4M
Cincinnati RHRP Logan Worden(30, 3.5*, 3-+2 22SV 2.50 64K 0.6WAR) 3y/$48.5M

February 8th - RHRP John Coulter(33, 3*) signed with Washington for $4.8M… too rich for our blood.
