The Nationals are making a big move by calling up 23-year-old lefty prospect Jackson Kent from Triple-A, creating space by trading Foster Griffin and optioning Zack Littell. Kent, ranked among the top 10 prospects in baseball, boasts a mid-90s fastball, a sharp slider, and a reliable changeup that’s been racking up strikeouts. In Triple-A this season, he’s posted a 3.72 ERA while keeping the ball on the ground and limiting hard contact. With three option years remaining and team control through 2030, the Nationals are betting big on him to anchor their rotation — and he’s got plenty of time to prove he belongs.
