So JimBo says the Nats are only paying this year of Hosmer’s salary and the Padres are eating the rest.
Nightingale says Hosmer won't approve the trade.
I would start the DC chapter of the Eric Hosmer Fan Club if he held his ground, but he might think he has fans and take the deal
bowden says the deal doesn't hinge on Hosmer, others sayiing it does.
I’m sure there is a fallback. The Nats can’t keep Soto now.
Bob Nightengale @BNightengalenowThe Juan Soto deal is done with the #Padres, and does NOT include Eric Hosmer.
Such a garbage return for Soto
jonmorosi's avatarJon Morosi@jonmorosiSources: #Padres and Eric Hosmer’s representatives currently negotiating about what it would take for Hosmer to approve his trade to the #Nats. The Juan Soto/Josh Bell blockbuster — in its current form — is contingent on Hosmer’s assent. @MLB @MLBNetwork
You know, if the deal is going through without Hosmer and the package is the same, then I'm slightly less pissed at the return.
@FangrahsProspects Washington moves from 24th to 8th in the live farm system rankings. If you were to include recently-graduated MacKenzie Gore in the calculus, they'd move to 5th. fangraphs.com/prospects/the-…
