HOT STOVE HEATS UP: Washington Nationals All-Stars Abrams & Gore Draw Trade Interest Across MLB
Ryan Clary breaks down the Washington Nationals' heating trade market as teams inquire about All-Stars MacKenzie Gore and CJ Abrams. He argues the Nationals should only trade one—likely Gore—while extending Abrams at second base. Clary explains why Gore's Scott Boras representation makes an extension unlikely, while Abrams' potential and ROC Nation representation offer better retention odds. He explores the value dynamics of trading now versus the deadline, emphasizing the need to retain young talent after years of rebuilding. Beyond the headliners, Clary predicts savvy moves involving the team's logjammed outfield prospects—Robert Hassell III, Christian Franklin, and Andrew Pinckney—who could fetch MLB-ready pitching. With new POBO Paul Toboni's forward-thinking approach and Blake Butera hire, expect an active offseason focused on strategic roster construction rather than blockbuster free agent signings. 0:00 Intro 1:46 Teams Inquiring About Gore and Abrams 4:18 Mackenzie Gore's Trade Value and Potential 7:21 Why CJ Abrams Should Stay 10:25 The Case Against Trading Both Stars 15:00 Abrams' Untapped Potential at Second Base 19:34 Savvy Moves Beyond Gore and Abrams 22:37 Trading Outfield Prospects for Pitching Depth Follow Ryan Clary on Twitter: https://twitter.com/Ryanclary11 Follow Locked On Nationals on Twitter: https://twitter.com/LO_Nationals Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!PrizePicks Download the PrizePicks app today and use code LOCKEDONMLB to get $50 in lineups after you play your first $5 lineup.
