Oct 21, 2014 1:48 PM
John Lannan has requested a trade from the Nationals, but the team is not anxious to trade him.
"We haven't changed one bit," Washington general manager Mike Rizzo said. "We're not looking to trade him. We haven't solicited any trades, but we have fielded some calls. We feel he's a solid major-league starting pitcher. But we feel we have five guys who are better than him. At the same time, we feel he can help us at some point this year."
The Orioles, Cubs, Tigers, Red Sox, Astros and Tigers are among teams that have expressed interest in Lannan.
