The Nats have signed Matt Stairs.
Washington Nationals give veteran Matt Stairs chance to make team - ESPN.
For some reason, I really like the fact that this guy keeps getting a job in MLB. Comparatively speaking, he has never been a highly paid player, and there is nothing fancy about his game. He's just a solid veteran who brings to the plate with every at-bat the potential to stroke one over a wall. I'm not a Nats fan, so maybe those who are don't share my enthusiasm.
