FOXSPORTS.com is reporting that the Nationals are making a strong run at free agent starter Jon Garland. Garland is believed to be seeking a three year deal, likely similar to what Randy Wolf received from the Brewers.
Garland, 30, posted 11 wins last season with the Diamondbacks and Dodgers, and posted a 3.35 ERA after June 1st.
The Nationals also have their eyes on Jason Marquis and Doug Davis, so it is likely that they will make a splash on the free agent starter market in the near future.
