Washington Nationals: Patrick Corbin Is Worth Every Last Dollar

This offseason the Washington Nationals took a gamble few teams were willing to endeavor upon. The team took a chance and gave a big dollar free agent deal to left-hander Patrick Corbin. The deal was for six years and $140 million, the third biggest on the free agent market this offseason.

Corbin had an up and down first six years of his career for the Arizona Diamondbacks. He started off struggling his rookie year, then bounced back with an All-Star campaign in 2013, but was forced to undergo Tommy John Surgery that winter causing him t miss the entire 2014 season.
