Nationals - Padres

[Washington Nationals (Jesse)]

WSH receives
- Oneil Cruz (SS, PIT)

SD receives
- Luis Baez (OF, HOU)
- 2025 1st (WSH)
- 2026 3rd (WSH)

While his ankle injury last season is definitely concerning, Cruz has the potential to be a multidimensional cornerstone at short for me. I'm definitely parting with some valuable pieces here (Baez as the Astros #2 prospect especially), but Cruz has his foot in the door and I'm hoping he's primed to take off in 2024.
