good to see the club sign so many guys so quickly. it shows that some of the draftees are eager to get going. and nice work lerners and front office 
Agreed, but keep in mind there's another dynamic at work here. In a way, these prospects are competing with each other for the finite budget the Nats have for signing 2009 draftees. Those that wait too long can find themselves on the outside looking in, as more eager players soak up the available budget. No team signs all its draftees, there's not enough $ to do so typically.
