The Nationals are off to another losing season with a record of 18-32 and are in a current rebuild. While trading Soto has been rumored, it is highly unlikely and would make little sense for the Nationals organization to do so. Soto is a once-in-a-generation player who still has at least 10 seasons in his prime.
