Well, Eric Hosmer will wind up with the Boston Red Sox after rejecting a trade to the Washington Nationals, according to Jon Heyman and others.

The 32-year-old first baseman exercised a clause in his contract allowing him to block a trade to the Nats, who were on his no-trade list.


The Nationals still got a huge haul in exchange for Juan Soto and Josh Bell, who are now heading to the San Diego Padres. Hosmer aside, the Nats are getting: 19-year-old outfielder James Wood; 23-year-old left-handed pitcher MacKenzie Gore; 20-year-old outfielder Robert Hassell III; 21-year-old shortstop C.J. Abrams; and 18-year-old right-handed pitcher Jarlin Susana.

The Hosmer mini-saga included an incredible amount of twists and turns as national MLB reporters circulated bits of information about the deal.

And the trade wasn't complete until Luke Voit was sent from San Diego to Washington in Hosmer's place.
