On day Lucas Giolito makes 2018 debut for White Sox, Adam Eaton has monster afternoon for Nationals

Adam Eaton might go down as one of the most important figures in the White Sox rebuild.

He won't be playing alongside the likes of Yoan Moncada, Eloy Jimenez, Luis Robert, Michael Kopech and Lucas Giolito. But the trade that sent him to the Washington Nationals stocked the White Sox farm system. It's already yielded a pair of exciting young big league pitchers in Giolito and Reynaldo Lopez and could end up producing a third rotation piece in Dane Dunning. The haul was a big one at the time and could prove even bigger, depending on what Giolito, Lopez and Dunning become.
