Officially announced by Nats.

Nats are recalling José Tena to fill Amed Rosario’s roster spot, per Rochester’s roster move announcement.

Beeter is the Yankees’ No. 20 prospect per MLB Pipeline. The right-hander has an mid-to-upper-90s fastball and upper-80s slider. Martinez is an 18-year-old outfielder from the Dominican Republic and still in the Summer League down there.

Pregame notes: Nats go over their total draft pool with signing of second round pick Ethan Petry, Dylan Crews remains with the club instead of leaving for a rehab assignment. masnsports.com/blog/entry/nat…

Dylan Crews is here in Minnesota with the team. Had been taking simulated ABs in the cage, in addition to all other pregame work. No rehab assignment yet, though.

Nationals have signed 2nd round pick Ethan Petry (OF/1B, South Carolina). Believe they’ve now signed everyone but 17th, 19th rounders.

The Mets are acquiring left-handed reliever Gregory Soto from the Baltimore Orioles for Wellington Aracena and Cameron Foster, league sources confirmed. @martinonyc first on the move.

Taking a look at the players on expiring contracts that have been playing well for the Nats at the perfect time ahead of the trade deadline. Plus, the Nats sign two more draft picks over slot value. masnsports.com/blog/entry/pot…

Nats officially announce signing third-rounder RHP Landon Harmon and fifth-rounder SS Coy James. Both high school players signed for $2.5 million, well above their slot values.

Hassell finished this game 3-for-5 with 4 RBIs. He's now hitting .308 with an .840 OPS at Triple-A.

And well over slot for 3rd rounder Landon Harmon as well.
