Riley Adams was the first player the Washington Nationals acquired at the trading deadline this year. That may have been the only time he was in the spot light. Adams was a top-thirty prospect in the Toronto Blue Jays system, though he would be one of three catchers the Nats would add to their organization when all trades were announced.
