Flores taken by Nats in Rule5 draft

Jesus Flores, who I'd mentioned back here as the Mets possible catcher of the future, has been snatched right out of A ball by the Nationals. As a rule 5 draftee, he'll either be on the Nats 25 man roster in '07 playing in the bigs, or else they'll have to offer him back to the Mets for $25K. With our luck, I'll bank on him going .250/20/70 in his rookie MLB campaign.
