Washington Nationals general manager Mike Rizzo clearly didn’t want to leave the Winter Meetings empty handed.
After losing out on both Mark Melancon and Chris Sale, Rizzo was apparently hell bent on filling a need for a roster. Why do I say that? Well, because he paid an exorbitant price to acquire outfielder Adam Eaton.
The proposed package Washington offered the Chicago White Sox for Sale -- one of the best pitchers in baseball -- reportedly included top prospects Lucas Giolito, Reynaldo Lopez, Victor Robles and Dane Dunning.
