Eric O’Flaherty– A pitcher that the Nationals know very well, O’Flaherty could be a decent option in the bullpen. Now, everyone don’t get all upset, he is coming off Tommy John, but that could help the Nationals. He made $4.32 million last year and will not make close to that off TJ. In the 19 games he pitched before he went down, he pitched well. O’Flaherty compiled a 2.50 ERA in those games. Atlanta has expressed interest in bringing O’Flaherty back, but if not, the Nationals could swoop him up as a low cost option.
