The Minnesota Twins and the Washington Nationals are having discussions over pitcher Matt Capps, according to Tim Brown of Yahoo! Sports and Jon Morosi of FOXSports.com.

As Morosi reported earlier, the Twins seem more confident about adding a reliever than starter.  Capps is certainly a solid reliever who can help or replace current closer Jon Rauch.

Capps currently has a 2.74 ERA with 26 saves in 30 opportunities.  His salary is $3.5 million this season.
