As the July 31, 2025 MLB Trade Deadline approaches, the Washington Nationals once again find themselves in familiar territory: selling.

With the club deep in another rebuilding season, Interim GM Mike DeBartolo has several veterans drawing league-wide interest, and the Nationals have already started making moves.
On Saturday, the Nationals traded utility man Amed Rosario to the Yankees in exchange for a pair of intriguing prospects.
