Wire Taps: Which Nationals' pitchers will stay?; Will Nats extend qualifying offer to Wilson Ramos?; AFL update

It's a historic night in baseball, but we would rather pay attention to the Nats. It's a flaw.

Here are the links.

Which Nats pitchers will stay, and which will go?
The pitching rotation and the bullpen looks relatively set -- but there are definitely a few questions. Will Gio Gonzalez be a National on Opening Day next year? Will Mark Melancon remain with the club?

Will the Nats extend a qualifying offer to Wilson Ramos?
The offer was essentially guaranteed -- until Ramos injured his knee. Now, the situation is a little more complicated.

Nats AFL Update: Drew Ward and Andrew Stevenson shine
The AFL is in full swing, and Drew Ward is having a much better fall season this year than he did last time around.

Mike Rizzo says a whole lot of nothing in first comments since NLDS exit
If you're looking for answers regarding what the Nats are going to be doing this offseason, Mike Rizzo isn't too intent on giving them to you (but Ryan Zimmerman will stay at first base next season, don't worry).

Could the Nats go after Andrew McCutchen?
Sure, he had a rough season -- but if you were given the opportunity to have Andrew McCutchen on your ballclub, wouldn't you take it?
