The MLB trade deadline rocked the fantasy world, altering the rest-of-season value of so many players. Today’s edition of waiver wire tips is full of those who saw their value increase at the deadline. And I managed to sneak in a few other players who are included due to favorable upcoming schedules. One note before we start: while MLB fans mostly focus on the acquisitions by contending teams who loaded up at the deadline, wise fantasy managers know that the best values in early August are… Source link

After a whirlwind three weeks, Juan Soto is on the move. The Washington Nationals reportedly traded their young superstar to the San Diego Padres on Tuesday alongside star first baseman Josh Bell, hours ahead of MLB’s 6 p.m. trade deadline, Yahoo Sports’ Hannah Keyser confirmed. MLB.com’s Jon Morosi reported the deal. With the blockbuster deal, Padres executive A.J. Preller adds two of the best hitters available and sets up the potential for a Soto-Manny Machado-Fernando Tatis Jr. lineup… Source link

The Washington Nationals really might be trading Juan Soto, but it reportedly is not going to be cheap. Multiple MLB teams have reportedly told The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal that the Nationals are asking for four or five “youngsters,” basically prospects or big leaguers with several years of team control left, in negotiations for Soto. The Nationals have apparently signaled the price is non-negotiable, hence teams will have to choose to meet that price by the Aug. 2 trade deadline or try their… Source link

The Juan Soto saga took another weird turn Monday night. The current-but-possibly-on-the-trade-block outfielder for the Washington Nationals arrived less than 24 hours before the Home Run Derby after Soto flew commercially to Los Angeles following the team’s series against the Atlanta Braves in D.C. That drew the ire of Soto’s agent, Scott Boras, who pointed out how unfair it was that players from the Braves were chartered to All-Star Weekend but the Nationals couldn’t do the same for Soto.

One of the best players in baseball could be on the move in the next few weeks. Washington Nationals superstar Juan Soto reportedly declined a 15-year, $440 million offer from the team, according to Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic. That decision will lead to the Nationals listening to offers for the young star. The proposed deal would have made Soto, 23, the highest-paid player in baseball history. Notably, the offer contained no deferred money. Though the Nationals will reportedly entertain… Source link

There are some weird quirks baked into MLB’s lengthy rulebook, and the Washington Nationals ran into a particularly unsavory morsel on Wednesday. In the fifth inning, the Nationals were in trouble. The Pittsburgh Pirates had runners on second and third with one out and the score tied 3-3. Ke’Bryan Hayes, one of three Pirates in the lineup with a batting average above .250, was facing Steve Cishek. Then the Nationals got lucky. Hayes hit a low line drive that was caught by Nationals first… Source link

The Washington Nationals inched closer Saturday to finally opening the regular season. The team reportedly experienced no new positive COVID-19 results in their latest batch of tests, according to Britt Ghiroli and Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic. The Nationals have yet to open the 2021 MLB season after a positive COVID-19 test prior to the team’s opening game. As a result, MLB postponed the team’s opener against the New York Mets. There was hope the Nationals could have returned to play… Source link
