"Obviously, the MacKenzie Gore deal was the one that us Nationals fans had been waiting for since August, and Toboni seemingly did a great job of playing the market in his favor. After numerous other starting pitchers had come off the board in advance of Gore, Toboni was able to get a great package of youngsters in return for his ace."
"As for the package itself, the Giants reportedly were willing to include shortstop Josuar Gonzalez, MLB Pipeline's #44 overall prospect, as well as other highly touted names such as Carson Wisenhunt, Bo Davidson, Jacob Bresnahan, and Jhonny Level. This would be a pretty great haul for a player like Abrams, who the front office might not believe is in their future."
The Washington Nationals have remained headline-worthy despite limited free agent activity. The MacKenzie Gore trade delivered a significant package of young players to the Nationals. Washington reportedly held trade discussions with the San Francisco Giants centered on 2024 All-Star shortstop CJ Abrams to address infield needs. The Nationals appear hesitant to offer Abrams a long-term extension, preferring to evaluate his 2025 performance. Abrams has shown offensive promise but has struggled defensively, with a likely future move to second base. The Giants reportedly would include Josuar Gonzalez (#44 overall) plus several other notable prospects. Fan speculation includes interest in Bryce Eldridge, but no deal is confirmed.
