As much as I'd love Gioloto or Lopez back we need another young position player with star potential. I personally rather have Robles than either of them. Call me crazy.

 

For Eaton and how cheap and control we have, we can get Robles and 2 of Giolito/Fedde/Lopez imo

Id be estatic with that but someone claimed it was Gioloto and Lopez. That would be awesome to get those guys but if we don't get Robles I'd be disappointed for sure.

Why do people like Robles exactly? From looking at stats, he seems to be several years away and generally has the same skill set as Adam Eaton. No idea about defense. What is the point of this?

 

Victor Robles Scouting:

 

Scouting grades: Hit: 60 | Power: 45 | Run: 70 | Arm: 65 | Field: 60 | Overall: 60

 

That is the potential to be an all star center fielder^^^

 

Those types of players don't grow on trees

He has elite speed, plus defensive, plus contact, and they say he can develope power once he grows into his body. He's approach is also said to be advanced. In the next year or two he could very well be the top prospect in MLB.

No Robles.

 

Ken Rosenthal ‏

Sources: #Nationals close to acquiring Eaton from #WhiteSox. Robles not in deal.

 

With no Robles it would have to have Giolito or Lopez as the headliner. Disappointing to hear no Robles, but I'm sure there will be some solid depth if a deal gets done

He is described as being a very smart baseball player for his age. Advanced 2-strike approach with a 60 hit tool. Elite speed, elite defense. His skill grades when added up are nearly the same as Moncada.

 

Very bummed if we don't get.
