Here's why the Nationals should trade for Tarik Skubal this offseason

After watching yet another dominant starting pitching performance by the Los Angeles Dodgers neverending well of elite, top of the line starters, and taking a look at the staff the Nationals have lined up as of October 28th, 2025 for next season, it becomes clear that a bona fide number one ace is needed if there is any hope for this franchise to begin to turn a corner and show signs of life out of the rebuild.

What better way to kick off off-season hopes and dreams for our beloved Nats then a hypothetical, never gonna happen in a million years, theoretical scenario where the Washington Nationals acquire the best pitcher in baseball.
