Does it get better than $860?
Did the best I could (admittedly which may not be that good) on my usual sites (Kayak, Google Flights, Priceline, Orbitz, RouteHappy, Southwest).


Although I am open to other airports (DCA/BWI, OAK/SAC/SMF) but it gets really expensive with cab fares or rentals.
The only other option I can think of is to use AA miles. Curiously I'm seeing some decent Business MileSAAver availability for my dates (25k each way per person) but I was saving those miles for a family trip to Australia this winter.

Any advice is appreciated.

If you're not flexible on dates or airports, Flyer talkers are not going to be able to come up with any fares different from the ones you're seeing. May they drop closer in? Sure. But BWI-SEA is a very different route so the comment about that isn't so helpful. They just as likely will go up.
