7 reasons Nationals fans should be stoked about Doug Fister

On Monday, the Nationals announced a trade that would bring Tigers pitcher Doug Fister to Washington D.C. in exchange for left-handers Ian Krol and Robbie Ray, and infielder Steve Lombardozzi.

Let's look back at the last time Fister took the mound: Game 4 of the 2013 ALCS against the Red Sox. He put on quite the show in that matchup -- fanning seven batters in six innings of work.
