The Washington Nationals made an impactful move by trading reliever Hunter Harvey to the Kansas City Royals for prospect Cayden Wallace and a competitive balance draft pick. This trade signals that the Nationals, with a record of 44-52, will be sellers as the trade deadline approaches. Harvey, a former first-round pick with a history of injuries, became a key contributor in the Nationals' bullpen before being traded. The team may not be done dealing, with outfielder Jesse Winker and reliever Dylan Floro potentially on the trading block. Wallace, the Royals' No. 2 prospect, brings promise despite recent injuries. The Nationals now have three picks in the upcoming draft, with the 39th pick adding to their bonus pool. This trade showcases the Nationals' strategic approach to building for the future.
