One of the best pitchers to come through Starkville and the guest picker on ESPN's College GameDay's lone visit to Mississippi State, Jonathan Papelbon has been traded from the Philadelphia Phillies to the Washington Nationals.

With the trade deadline looming, it appears the Phillies are in the process of dismantling a roster that led the City of Brotherly Love to a World Series Championship.
