Nationals acquired RHP Jarlin Susana, 1B Luke Voit, LHP MacKenzie Gore, SS C.J. Abrams and OF’s Robert Hassell III and James Wood from the Padres for OF Juan Soto and 1B Josh Bell.
Susana was considered the top pitching prospect in the most recent international signing class and is the definition of a lottery ticket for the rebuilding Nationals. The 18-year-old righty is years away from the majors, but could evolve into one of the premier pitching prospects in the game down the road. He’s a fun inclusion in the biggest trade in baseball history.
