Getting traded within a year after being selected in the 1st Round of the MLB Draft can’t be easy. Having to wait for months to be included as the Player to Be Named Later, and having to play for the minor league affiliate of the team that traded you can’t be easy either (and rules were later altered so it won’t happen again).
Trea Turner handled it all like a pro, however, and after the 23-year-old rose quickly through the minors, he was eventually called up to the majors on a full-time basis during Washington’s run to an NL East division title last season.
