The Nationals moved CA Patrick Nichols and LHP Jason Stanford to the Vermont roster in order to open up spots for CA Jesus Flores and RHP Jason Bergmann. In essence, Nichols and Stanford are in extended spring training back down in Florida.

If I were Nichols or Stanford, I would take this as a very bad sign. I would say the same for Wil Nieves. It is one thing to almost make the Major League club, but it is another thing altogether to be moved to the backup position in AAA.
Will Bergmann be a starter or a reliever in Columbus?
