The Washington Nationals traded utilityman and platoon bat Amed Rosario to the New York Yankees on Saturday evening, YES Network's Jack Curry reported. Washington receives right-handed relief prospect Clayton Beeter in the deal, as well as 18-year-old outfield prospect Browm Martinez. The club confirmed the transaction on their official blog. José Tena has been called up and will replace Rosario on the team's active roster, the Washington Post's Nationals beat writer Andrew Golden reported on Twitter. For a signing that wasn't thought of as being too much of a huge addition at the time, the Nationals were able to get some solid value for a rental piece in Rosario.
