I thought the Yankees deal yesterday with Padres might be the type of deal the Nats could try to pull for Wieters and maybe Blanton. The NYY needed to drop salary, so they sent Brian Mitchell along with Chase Headley to the Padres for a long shot outfielder who may not make the NYY. This deal allowed them to drop Headley's $12MM for next year off the books. I wonder what sort of wrapper we'd need to put around Wieters in order to get a team like the White Sox or Tigers (rebuilding, looking for prospects) to take on Wieters's contract?
