Winter Meetings Daily: Nats pay steep price for Adam Eaton

After trading for Adam Eaton, the Washington Nationals now have their center fielder -- and three of the Nats' top pitching prospects are headed to the Chicago White Sox.

Rival evaluator on the White Sox trades: "They're kicking some butt."

Eddie Matz's take: The Nats finally joined the winter meetings party by acquiring Adam Eaton, but the cover charge sure was steep: two first-round pitchers (Lucas Giolito and Dane Dunning) and a top-50 prospect who throws high-90s cheese (Reynaldo Lopez). I guess they really wanted to move Trea Turner back to shortstop.
