The Nationals are on the clock as the trade deadline looms—just two days away—and they’re stuck between a rock and a hard place with pitcher Foster Griffin. Extension talks stalled, but aren’t dead; a potential three-year deal worth $36M–$42M is rumored, and if that wasn’t met, it explains the pause. Meanwhile, the team’s skid (three losses in a row) and their slim wild card lead could push them toward trading him for future assets—even if talks continue. It’s a high-stakes balancing act: keep Griffin for the long haul or cash in before the deadline.
