JD, : Washington trading for Early was actually a very strong signal to me that his elbow issue is not serious and he should come back as strong as ever once he is fully healthy. I don't think there's any way that Washington would trade for him unless they were 100% confident in his medicals and that the opioid rule is no concern. I love this move for Washington and while I think it is a great win now move for the Red Sox, Early could be a significant piece for the Nationals over the next five years of team control, especially for a team that is looking really strong already with their young core of Wood and Abrams. I think this is an example of a trade that teams are afraid to actually make because it is so easy to directly compare the results of these two players because they are in similar places in their career trajectory. It's so common for teams to trade a guy who has one year of free agency remaining for a bunch of young prospects and chalk it up to, "Well I guess they didn't work out oh well" if inevitably no one hits, but the package of players is so far removed from the value of that specific player that it's kind of like comparing apples to oranges. You can't get too mad at a fun office for dropping the ball. When a team trades for a guy who is in a very similar career position as the guy they just traded, they know those two players will always be compared and it can either look like a genius move or an embarrassing blunder for the front office. All this to say I wish there were more trades like this in the MLB and I wish front offices would take more risks to improve their rosters.
