There isn’t much else to say at this point about the Washington Nationals and their trade deadline deal that sent Juan Soto and Josh Bell to the San Diego Padres
The Nationals still had a series to play — and they even won their first game without Soto and Bell, while facing Jacob deGrom, of all starters — but nobody could blame fans at Nats Park if they were feeling a little bit numb to the game given what happened on Tuesday.
At the end of it, the result on the field was familiar, dropping two of three to the New York Mets.
