Washington Nationals: Could Wilmer Difo be a trade candidate?

It’s been an offseason of change with the Washington Nationals as they look to completely reshape their roster. Now it’s fair to wonder whether Wilmer Difo could be traded away as the front office rounds out the roster.

The Nats officially confirmed the acquisition of Brian Dozier on Sunday afternoon, and he’s expected to be their starting second baseman in 2019. Top prospect Carter Kieboom is also waiting in the wings and could make his major league debut this season, so the short-term and long-term future of second base seems to be secure.
