John Lannan has told Nationals GM Mike Rizzo that he would like to be traded
according to an email he sent to the media, including Amanda Comak of The
Washington Times (Twitter link). The left-hander was recently optioned to
Triple-A despite his $5MM salary.
"I believe that I belong in a big league rotation," said Lannan in an email
according to Comak (on Twitter). The club's fifth starter job went to Ross
Detwiler in the wake of Chien-Ming Wang's hamstring injury. A number of teams
expressed interest in acquiring Lannan last month, but Rizzo held on to him
while insisting for fair value in return. The Nationals are under no
obligation to satisfy his request.
開季之前被Detwiler取代而遭下放的Lannan認為他毫無疑問可以成為大聯盟輪值的一員
