The Washington Nationals really might be trading Juan Soto, but it reportedly is not going to be cheap.
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA - JULY 19: Juan Soto #22 of the Washington Nationals looks on during the 92nd MLB All-Star Game presented by Mastercard at Dodger Stadium on July 19, 2022 in Los Angeles, California. Juan Soto, but it reportedly is not going to be cheap.
Soto's trade drama began when he reportedly turned down a 15-year, $440 million extension offer from the Nationals, which was already bigger than Mike Trout's 12-year, $426 million contract, though the $29.3 million average annual value was notably lower than most players at Soto's level.The expected haul for the Nationals in a theoretical Soto trade was always going to be big, but Rosenthal's report adds some clarity to what we're dealing with.
While the quantity is established, the quality remains unclear. There is obviously a world of difference in value between, say, a top 10 prospect and a sophomore big-leaguer having a decent year, but both fit under that umbrella term of"youngsters." The Nationals are going to want major names in the prospect world.
