Javier Vazquez has pitched well enough in the Puerto Rican winter league to create a free-agent market for himself. The biggest bidder may be the Washington Nationals.
According to USA Today's Bob Nightengale, the Nats have "heavy interest" in the 36-year-old righthander. Vazquez has been throwing his fastball in the low 90s as he prepares to pitch for Puerto Rico in this year's World Baseball Classic.
Vazquez retired after the 2011 season, and he has said he isn't certain he wants to return to the majors. He did say that if he returns, he'd prefer to pitch for a winner. The Nats are the reigning NL East champions.
Washington, the Boston Red Sox, Tampa Bay Rays, Kansas City Royals, Chicago White Sox and New York Mets have scouted Vazquez's recent starts in Puerto Rico.
