According to Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports, the Nationals are making a strong push to sign free agent southpaw Eric O'Flaherty. The 28-year-old appeared in just 19 games for the Braves in 2013, posting a 2.50 ERA, 0.94 WHIP and 11/5 K/BB ratio over 18 innings before undergoing season-ending Tommy John surgery. Prior to the injury, O'Flaherty had established himself as one of the finest left-handed relievers in the National League. The Dodgers and Phillies are also known to have interest in his services.
