Wire Taps: Craig Kimbrel could make Nationals great; Carter Kieboom hits two off Justin Verlander; Victor Robles will get playing time

Carter Kieboom seems like he could be good. Just a suspicion, though. (Though with Luis Garcia behind him, does it make sense to ship one or the other off for another starting pitcher or another late inning arm?)

Here’s the news from West Palm:

The Nationals roster is good, not great. Craig Kimbrel would be the difference. (WaPo)
Sean Doolittle knows that adding Craig Kimbrel would kick him out of his closer's slot. He doesn't really care — he likes winning more than saving games. Kimbrel would cost about $5 million in luxury tax penalties.
