MLB Trade Rumors: Josh Bell is going to the Washington Nationals from the Pittsburgh Pirates, per reports. Jeff Passan says the Pirates are getting back pitchers Eddy Yean and Wil Crowe.
The initial reaction is going to be that this is a surprisingly light package for Bell — Yean is a 19 year old who is 8th on the Baseball America Nationals list, and who has 90 pro innings, none in full season ball, while Crowe is a 26 year old righthanded starter who is 10th in the BA list and was knocked around in three starts in 2020, his first taste of major league action.
