Bill Ladson of MLB.com reports that the Nationals and first baseman Adam Dunn have begun negotiations toward a contract extension.
Dunn, 30, is batting .280/.376/.550 this season with 12 home runs and 32 RBI in 211 at-bats. He seems to like it in D.C. and they want him as their first baseman long-term. "The Nationals know how I feel about this place. I hope that something can be worked out," Dunn said Wednesday. "Again, I'm not in any hurry. It's probably No. 10 on my list of things to worry about."
