MLB.com's Bill Ladson (@washingnats):

"GM Mike Rizzo said there is still interest in signing Adam Dunn to an extension. The team is happy with Dunn's offense/defense."

@NatsTownNews:

"SS Danny Espinosa (U.S.) and OF Eury Perez (World) will play in the MLB All-Star Furtures Game on July 12."

• Dave Nichols - @NatsNewsNetwork:

"Rizzo pre-game: Looking for deals that make sense; willing to be buyer or seller; still interested in Dunn extension talks; covets starters."
