Jim Bowden of ESPN.com and MLB Network Radio on Sirius XM reports that the Nationals and Reds continue to pursue free agent left-hander Mike Gonzalez. We heard back in November that about 10 teams were interested in Gonzalez, but it appears the field has narrowed to two potential contenders. The 34-year-old southpaw posted a 3.03 ERA and 39/16 K/BB ratio over 35 2/3 innings with the Nats in 2012.
