Evaluators weigh Gore trade: high upside, mixed package for Nationals
The Washington Post surveyed MLB evaluators to gauge the return the Washington Nationals received for MacKenzie Gore after he was traded to the Texas Rangers. Gore’s ace ceiling remains the centerpiece of the deal, but the announced package—including Abimelec Ortiz, Gavin Fien, Alejandro Rosario, Yeremy Cabrera, and Devin Fitz-Gerald—is viewed as a high-upside, mixed-prospect haul that could help Washington’s rebuild, with opinions on its overall value varying among evaluators.
