This looks like it could get messy:
Developing story: Stephen Strasburg’s retirement press conference slated for Saturday has been cancelled, multiple sources say. The plan was to honor him and retire his number but the Nationals have changed course.

Nats fired a dozen scouts yesterday. Can't agree on a Rizzo extension. Now appear to want to cancel what was going to be a number retirement ceremony. They really need to sell this team. The current owners seems to have mostly checked out. They are very transactional regarding cash flow and dependent on the commercial real estate market which is not great these days.
