Janes reports that Nats had targeted Lance Lynn to replace Roark, but didn’t want to give him a third year so he went to the Rangers.

I don't understand this, we trade a guy who was a decent innings eater at a reasonable price, and now we're looking for guys who roughly pitching at the same level?  Lynn might have been a very slight upgrade.

Nats had targeted Lance Lynn as a replacement for Tanner Roark, according to people familiar with their plans. Wouldn’t go to a third year, so Rangers got him. They are currently perusing the market for veteran starters.
