Which is exactly my point. They don't have the benefit to wait 2 years to see what Carter is. Which again leads me back to my point. If Rizzo did see Kieboom as opening day/all 2021 season 3B, why is Nats twitter all reporting that he's readily available via trade.
because he is one of our only "valuable" trade pieces and most rumors have him in deals for established 3Bs. trade a guy who may be good in 3 years for a guy who is good now at the same position. it's also unclear how much he actually is involved in potential deals because nothing clearly has transpired. teams are likely asking for him, we don't know for sure if rizzo is including him.
