We'll continue our look at some of the Nats potential trade targets over the next week by checking into Brewers closer Francisco Rodriguez.
With a sudden void in the setup role, the Washington Nationals were linked to Francisco Rodriguez a few times this offseason. The veteran closer was coming off of an odd 2014 campaign that saw him finish with 44 saves and a 3.04 ERA despite finishing with a 4.50 FIP and -0.6 fWAR last season. In the end, the Nats signed Casey Janssen while Rodriguez inked a new deal with his previous club, the Milwaukee Brewers.
