They need everyone they draft in the minor leagues. They still aren't deep enough.Harperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07738813756060133236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9207681.post-18234885183780292212010-08-17T08:18:32.140-07:002010-08-17T08:18:32.140-07:00As an avid follower of the Nats' minor league ...As an avid follower of the Nats' minor league system, I'm looking forward to watching Harper's development and seeing him play at Potomac. Fact is, the team HAD to sign him for credibility purposes. Signing Maya and the other three draftees helps in that regard as well.<br /><br />It is beginning to appear that ownership is getting serious about addressing the erosion of the fanbase. Drafting, signing and developing youg talent is a great way to do that.bdrubenoreply@blogger.com
