Nationals working to sign Zimmermann long term

A baseball source said there is nothing imminent as far as the Nationals trying to trade any of their players who are eligible for free agency after the 2015 season, a group which includes right-hander Jordan Zimmermann and shortstop Ian Desmond. The Nationals are willing to listen to trade offers on any of their players, but that doesn’t mean they are going to make a move. In fact, the same source said that the Nationals are still trying to sign Zimmermann long term.
