Hours after dealing relievers Andrew Chafin and Luis Garcia to the Los Angeles Angels for a pair of prospects including a former Top 5 player in the Miami Marlins' system, the Washington Nationals struck again on Wednesday evening.
While the Nationals have already begun to sell off their expiring contracts such as the pair of pitchers and infielder Amed Rosario, the team sent away one of their more valuable assets. Despite all of the rumors between the Nationals and Chicago Cubs have been centered around All-Star lefty MacKenzie Gore, it appears as if the Cubs will be grabbing another starting pitcher from the Nationals.
