Simple but effective for both teams.

Washington sends SP Joe Ross to LA for OF Yasiel Puig.

The Nationals get another bat for their lineup, and Puig gets a fresh start.

Dodgers have a new No. 3 SP behind Kershaw and Maeda, and finally pull the plug on Puig while getting a good, young arm to slot in ahead of Kazmir and Urias.

Huge overpay for Puig considering Ross is one of the main peices being discussed in a potential Cutch deal and even with Cutchs down year last time I checked Cutch is 10+ times better than Puig so Nats don't even bother considering this trade.

Nationals won't give up Ross for a wager (Puig)

Puig is 25 and has a reasonable contract and lots of potential. He could still pan out as a very solid player if someone can get his attitude in check.

Still I don't see it happening the Nationals will take Cutch.
