Nats trade pitching prospect for Rays' Dukes

After the Lastings Milledge trade on Friday apparently solved the Nats' CF woes and created an opening at catcher, the Nats made another trade today—for another outfielder. And not just any outfielder: the Nats traded minor league pitching prospect Glenn Gibson for Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Elijah Dukes. Dukes has attracted the interest of GM Jim Bowden for some time, but also has been in legal problems that got him sent to the minors and put on the temporarily ineligible list during the 2007 season.
