Inbox: Will Washington trade Harper?

After the General Managers Meetings last week in Orlando, Fla., and as the offseason continues to roll along, it's time for a Nationals Inbox to address some of your questions before the Thanksgiving holiday.

This week's Inbox focuses on Bryce Harper's status in Washington, the luxury tax and a reason to believe in Dave Martinez.

Would you consider trading Harper? I am one of his biggest fans, and I know the desire to win next year, but would the return be worth it in the long run?

I am pretty shocked how many variations of this question I have received lately -- from people who like Bryce Harper, but do not think he will come back to Washington; to people who do not like Bryce Harper, and do not think he is worth the money it will take to re-sign him; to people convinced the Nationals will not pay him to re-sign him.
