Nationals shopping John Lannan

http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2012/0...hn-lannan.html

With the signing of Edwin Jackson, Nationals are aggressively shopping Lannan for a position player in return. He lost in arbitration and is set to make $5M this season.

Would they consider Paul Janish a position player?

The Nats need up the middle defense but it would take more than Janish to get Lannan. They would probably take Cozart or Hamilton for him but I wouldn't want to do that deal.

Re: Nationals shopping John Lannan

We have a similiar pitcher to Lannon in Jeff Francis, though Francis is likely better.

Re: Nationals shopping John Lannan

I don't see the Reds as a good fit or a decent trade partner. Not a good use of resources, I think.
