Marlins send:
Juan Yepez 24-26 $1.1m

Nationals send:
Joey Cantillo MiLB
Jay Allen MiLB

Continuing to add value for the future. I’m pretty high on Cantillo and hoping Allen can figure it out.

[Nats GM (Lee)]

Confirmed. I reached out about Yepez, who is extremely affordable and has been great so far with the Nationals. I might regret this trade in a year, as I'm also a believer in Cantillo, and Allen seemed to have started putting it together this year. That said, I'm hoping Yepez helps boost me to the playoffs and gives me a controllable option at the corner while I wait for Caminero to get to the majors full time. Great dealing with Duston.
