Braves acquire Daryle Ward from Nationals

And the annual Greg Colburn award goes to Daryle Ward. Ward was traded to Atlanta from Washington in exchange for Luis Atilano, a RHP coming off Tommy John surgery. Ward brings a left handed bat off the bench and may see some time in LF. I call it the Greg Colburnn award because Colburnn was picked up in '97 and '98 for the playoff runs. Last year's winner was Todd Hollansworth. Anyway here are Ward's stats for the year:

2006: 78G 104AB 6HR 19RBI .308/.390/.567
