That's what they're rumored to do unless Edwin Jackson signs with them. They lowballed those two and were hoping that someone bit. Looks like Oswalt won't bite on the 1 year, $5M deal but who knows with Jackson.
Jackson would be a terrible error. Burnett level.
Well ones what $5/10 MM? The other was $82

Nats:
Ryan Zimmerman: Giving a guy who is going to finish the season 28 years old between $14-18 MM per year through 2019 when he's going end 35. This is a guy when has missed some decent time 3 out of the last 4 years (2008: 56, 2010: 19, 2011: 61). He's a good player (I personally like watching him) & he might be the "face of the franchise premium" but in reality: He's extremely iffy defensively, he's hit .300 once, over 25 HRs once, & over 100 RBIs twice.
