The Nationals dont sound interested in attaching Corbin to Soto. Like I said when this all started, why would they? Corbin has the exact remaining years on his deal as Soto. If you are trading Soto, you are punting those years, so getting Corbin off the books isn't exactly a priority because the team is going to suck and be cheap.

"We're not going to dilute the return for any player by including a bad contract," Rizzo said, when @JunksRadio asked him about throwing the Corbin contract into another deal at the deadline.
