Sports News Alert: Nationals trade Nyjer Morgan to Brewers

---------------------------------------- Sports News Alert: Nationals trade Nyjer Morgan to Brewers March 27, 2011 11:09:20 AM ---------------------------------------- The Washington Nationals traded center field Nyjer Morgan to the Milwaukee Brewers for minor league infielder Cutter Dyksta – the son of former major league Lenny Dykstra – ending a union that began with brilliance, proceeded with turbulence and ultimately fizzled when the Nationals decided they had brought in someone better to replace him. The Nationals decided early last week that Rick Ankiel, an offseason free agent acquisition, would become their regular starter in center field, making Morgan expendable in what General Manager Mike Rizzo described as a "logjam" of center fielders. http://link.email.washingtonpost.com/r/QJTXP3/ZB037I/XTV0BB/3SIN6M/I8XG6/E4/h For more information, visit washingtonpost.com. ---------------------------------------- Get closer to the story.
