Washington Nationals: Evaluating future building blocks

Even though the Washington Nationals are still fighting to wrestle away divisional control from Atlanta, it’s hard not to already have an eye on the upcoming winter, as the team enters maybe the biggest off-season in franchise history.

As if Nats fans needed to be reminded anymore, Bryce Harper, Gio Gonzalez, and Daniel Murphy will all hit free agency following the 2018 campaign.

Harper is expected to command hundreds of millions on the market, and while Gonzalez and Murphy will both be 33 by the end of the year, they still have impressive track records that will likely net them eight-figure deals annually.
