		<description><![CDATA[The Nationals search for a centerfielder and lead-off hitter is heating up, according to Ken Rosenthal, who says that Washington&#8217;s front office is interested in acquiring outfielder Denard Span from the Minnesota Twins.

But that feeling didn&#8217;t lessen his commitment to the Nats. After a disappointing &#8217;09 campaign in Pittsburgh (4-8, 5.80 ERA, while giving up an ugly 73 hits over 54.1 innings), [...]]]></description>
